Painting AW 1st Lap cars

Postby Ecbill » Sun Oct 19, 2014 7:40 pm

Have any of you ever tried painting the translucent bodies on AW First Lap cars on the inside, like lexan bodies.

I don't really care for the translucent bodies and want to paint them but would hate to loose all of the fine details. Thought painting on the inside might do the trick.

Never tried it - but it should make for an interesting effect!
Look forward to seeing the end result!

It'll probably look like POOP-(IMHO) if you paint them from the inside, as the body mount tabs are gonna show thru as ugly bars and such on the doors... :twocents-mytwocents:
