Heres the body Ron gave me! Thanks man!
He did some flames awhile back on one side of it and I just decided to finish them off and call it a day.

Nothing exotic, just basic paint job with some Duplicolor high temp paint. Anyone got ideas on what to cut it out with???

Looks pretty good, dude!
Lexan scissors (they have curves blades) or a really sharp hobby knife, like X-acto.

That sounds like one of those things that is going to stick, (or not stick in this case)

Alright you animals, rub it in :cussing: eventually I will get the hang of it.

My problem is I spent so many years looking at paint from the opposite direction, now I am having to think backwards :eek:

Carry on nothing here to see
