i celebrated my 37th birthday yesterday and for a gift to myself, i decided to start on a custom project using one of my supra gt bodies. this is the beginning of my version of the 1995 jgtc fet powercraft supra. masking took about 5 hours to complete but i think i did a good job just by going by pictures for reference. i just ordered some tamiya pc light blue and dark blue paint to do the stripes but will have to find some very thin masking tape for the dark blue pinstripe. if possible, i would like to find 1 more ta02w supra gt body set so i can add the castrol gt to the collection. i hope you enjoy the pics and any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks for looking ****UPDATE****PROJECT SCRAPPED DUE TO PAINT ISSUES AND CRACKS IN BODY.

Well, its actually a very easy masking job, considering that the dark blue will be the first colour to apply, in terms of doing it 'the right way'. First the dark blue, then the light blue and finally the white, so you just have to leave the stripes 'clear' for now, mask of the white places, paint the dark blue, remove the masking for the light blue, then paint this, and fnally, remove the rest of the masking for the white, and pow.. Job done..

Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Cheers..
