Nice job Dave. Only thing is if the ghoulies were a little more spread out and less apparent. That's just my opinion though. Looks real good

Thanks, I intentionally made the ghouls in the back very visible because they are trapped in the hot engine compartment, and I wanted them to stand out against the engine/cutout.

I "ghosted" the skulls and other ghouls eleswhere on the body..some are some subtle you can't see them in photos...there's one right in the middle of the hood (in green) if you look hard you can see him Very Happy

took a closer look and just noticed the skulls in the front end area. Awesome!

I like it, in fact i was about to paint myself one very similiar. nice to see it on a real body and not on a drawling paper. what green do u use i been useing f-green backed with key-lime green. i also been trying to mix that combo with f-yellow to match the kyosho green wing. around your triangles in the green did you use black to shade or a differant shade of green.

The green is pearl keylime green backed with white.
The white is pearl white CFwith white backer.
The MBX5T logo is all pearls - red white blue copper, backed with white.
The darker edges of the scallops and the back end by the wheel openings are darkened with regular Fasgreen and a little black.
The window trim is Flo Green backed with white.

lookin good dave, the only thing i would recommend to do differently is to maybe try spraying the black first in the back then the red CF i think it would have looked cooler if the red poopped off the black more, other than that great job
