Chevy CAMARO

Hey!!
Had this PROTOFORM chevy camaro body laying around for a while, decided to make a small side project from it. Since this is RC onroad body it is not as detailed as usual drift bodies.


























But I still decided to make something decent from it or at least to train my painting skills on it, either way I would not be too pissed if it would not turn out really good.
I had some inspiration from a camaro in formulaD 

























This is what I am planning to go for, but this body doesn't look as agressive and it is also not as wide as I want it to be, so I can have rims with decent offset etc. 

























Decision was made to order Demi-Works overfenders for 180sx and try to fit it on this camaro. It certainly won't be direct fit, but with some cutting and measuring it should get the job done.
 
Paint plan is done, everything is masked and ready for paintjob





So far I like how it is turning out. This is the most interesting color scheme I've been painting, before this I've painted MAX 2 color  body where not a lot of masking is required, but this felt like a new level, of course I have some mistakes here, but I am learning new things with each body and getting better and better with my painting skills.
















Finishing with the white color to brighten up the colors sligtly, and after that just a small layer of black to seal everything.











































Turned out well, now just needs a lot of detailing work, overfenders, stickers, etc. Also most probably will go for ducktail or something like that in order to cover those holes for huge onroad wing.
