JonyNitro 17-05-2011 06:07 PM

That's a good shell,

eyeayen 17-05-2011 07:21 PM

It looks tidy, you've come along way since your first one !

The Chef 17-05-2011 09:06 PM

Thank you. I really enjoy this but I don't know how the pros knock out so many at such a high standard. Pratic I guess. Hats off. I start another one saturday.:thumbsup:

Dudders 17-05-2011 09:24 PM

Good work fella :woot:

Tried to ghost some checks on this one but wasn't heavy enough with the paint. Or too heavy with the first coat.

Advice always greatly received.

This was before the one above,:thumbsup:

Learning with each shell.:D

eyeayen 18-05-2011 03:55 PM

As has been mentioned before get some empty 2litre clear plastic bottles. Practice on them, you use hardly any paint anyway and with the bottles being surplus to requirement once the fizzy sugary drink has been consumed it's a good way to practice effects rather than doing them on a shell and it not coming out right.

All the great works of art we see from anyone famous - Leonardo - Picasso - Van gogh - Turner - Monet, any of these, they all had practice pieces we never saw. You shouldn't be any different, it's all practice and you don't need to just discard these ( well, unless it turns out completely dreadful ), so if someone comes around to see your stuff you can say 'I can do this effect I think it would look quite cool' and they can physically see it even if it is on half a bottle... they don't need to see the ones before it that went wrong but you get to practice which is better than practicing on someones shell, especially if they're paying you, however little, you shouldn't do anything on a job for someone unless you have complete faith it will come out well.

Practice Practice Practice!!!

You've done a fantastic job on this one Chef, really liking the chequers and the scheme :thumbsup:

The Chef 18-05-2011 05:17 PM

Thank you. I will endevor to get better. But I think it will take some time.:eh?:

eyeayen 18-05-2011 09:07 PM

None of us were good on our first one, it's all a learnt thing, if you look at everything you've done you can already see a progressive improvement so you're definitely heading in the right direct :D

The Chef 23-05-2011 10:13 PM

One from tonight. Piccys are poor I'll take some better ones tomorrow. This is for my Friend Jelly.

dobber 24-05-2011 07:40 AM

Nice work, I like the fine detail in the shell. I know where I'll be bringing my shell when I need one painting. ( raced with you on Sunday, although never finished due to esc issues :-) )

eyeayen 24-05-2011 09:36 AM

Good shading on the slime :thumbsup:

The Chef 25-05-2011 05:55 PM

A simple one for my daughter.

The Chef 25-05-2011 09:51 PM

Either that or my fingers are too big:woot:

Dudders 25-05-2011 09:57 PM

One from today.

AfroP 30-05-2011 05:37 PM

I like that very much

the green carbon effect is very nice
could you do that in a different color like purple?

The Chef 30-05-2011 07:01 PM

I can do it in any color that you wish.Glad you like it:D

If any one wants shells painting give me a shout.:woot:

RC Lazy will ship shells direct to me to save you double postage and I'm sure that if you bought shells from MK racing I could collect them or I can meet up with Mark and collect peoples order if he has them in stock.:D

U1timate PigDog 30-05-2011 07:57 PM

Nice work Chef :)

One from tonight. Need better light to do the truck justice. These 1/8 truck bodies take some amount of paint and prep. Hats off to mr Larry G. I think I'd rather paint buggy shells. But hey ho it was fun and the result was ok but not perfect.

jonmiller 31-05-2011 04:22 PM

coming along nicely dude :thumbsup:

The Chef 31-05-2011 08:41 PM

Thank you master Jon.

The Chef 04-06-2011 07:22 PM

Here's a B4 shell from today, Tried to ghost some flames in purple but wasn't quite heavy enough on the shading but you can see it if you look.:D

Some top artwork going on here Chef. I think you should be stealing a catchphrase from a certain American wrestler called Dwayne.... :thumbsup:

As you can see from my avatar, Im currently running a single colour of white which I actually quite like. But I would like something from your good self even more, you've got some impressive efforts on show here. The next time I am needing a new shell you will be the first man I turn to. :)

The Chef 07-06-2011 08:34 PM

Thank you for your kind words:blush:Any time your ready dude let me know.

Dudders 07-06-2011 09:34 PM
