RTS / CHUG Tracks

[stevescustoms]

I gave Tracks a full repaint using Dupli-Color engine enamel blue for the main body. His head was taken apart and painted Gloss white and the eyes were done in a sky blue. All the paints I used were Testors regular enamels and Model Masters.Headlights, tail lights and exhaust were done in Chrome Silver and then the tail lights and the from turn signals were gone over in clear red for the tail lights and turn signal amber for the front turn signals. His hood and chest decals I made from pictures I found online and cut out by hand. The hood decal was a pain in the A$$ because I also had to split it down the middle once it was applied.

Let me know what you think. Enjoy.

Hey Steve, that looks good man! The paint looks clean and has a nice selection of colors that went well together for this one. I noticed that you've worked on making sure you don't have any paint bleed on the small details - that's awesome!

One nit-pick, the autobot decal on the chest is a c-hair off I think. It'd be a pain to re-do that I am sure but if you did, it'd be perfect!

Thanks man. It was a pin in the ass to get the symbol on his chest. I might have to reprint it and make it smaller. I haven't sealed anything yet so it shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Nice, been wondering why nobody has done any repaints of the Tracks mold as, well, Tracks. Looks good, also surprised to see someone else using Duplicolor products. Their adhesion promoter and automotive lacquers work very well also, if you're looking to try some new stuff.

Thanks guys. I rremade the decal for his chest. It's about half the size and simply looks better. New pic added to the bottom of the first post.
