Here is my white body corvette after I've started the paint.   I still need to figure out what I'm going to do for the decals, but I think it's looking good so far.

After the paint dries, I'll polish it up, and add the clear.  this is a 3 color fade. I started with a tranparent orange matalic,  then moved back to a red metalic and trailing off into the dark back is a Grape Pearl.

I know the pic shows the orange looking more like yellow, I'll post up some better pics when I have some good light, and I get further along.

Probably not.  We all know I like "Shelf Queens" and I really like the way it turned out.  now I just need to finish it up and get me some good pictures of it.

I have another white corvette body coming so I'll need to see what I want to do with that one.   I need to design som decals for it,  I plan on keeping it simple with just a few sponsors, and a windsheild banner, one for the wing as well.

the wing has the same fade, it matches the back of rest of the body from red to purple.

Looks great so far. What paint stand is that? Its cool looking.

[briankstan]

it's a Tamiya paint stand.  works perfect for this size of body.  it also has a second carousel with clips for painting the smaller bits. 

West Valley Hobbies has them I think it was like $20.  Tamiya America Item #74522 | Spray-Work Painting Stand Set
