What color do you plan to paint it? What brand of paint are you going to use and are you going to hand paint it or spray paint it?

[wasuri]

all i can say is im planning to do it...may take some time but i still have some fines to pay off =\


i plan to can spray it tamiya either x4(blue), x13(metalic blue), or xf8(flat blue). The reason I returned my RSX is because it was broken and i am a freak of skylines and its my dream color......

Nice work, I like what you did to the wheels. I can see you have been running it though. ;)

[viperkilla]

Nice Skyline. I like the color. Where did you get those rims? I am dying to get rims like those.

[Bad Company]

They look like the stock rims painted.

[NoGroceryGetter]

:D Thanks guys! Yeah I run the car outside quite a bit. As far as the rims go, they are the stock Skyline rims. I painted the rims flat black and then just took some silver paint and did the outter lip to give them that polished lip look!

[xlite]

[Bad Company]

Nice work guys! It seems like blue is a popular color. It's my favorit color, and after seeing these rides, I decided to paint one of my Skylines blue too.

Keep of the good work guys, and keep 'em coming!

[viperkilla]

Nice skyline Bad Company. What shade of blue did you use from tamiya? I like the silver rims. I did that with my skyline's rims.

[Bad Company]

Thanks! It was Metallic Blue. The rims are actually chrome, if you put them next to silver wheels, you see the difference.

[racemini89]

finished painting it

[viperkilla]

Looks good man. How'd you paint it? Hand paint it or spray paint it? I like what you did with the rims.

[clg31187]

[martin3103]

It is called a blower or supercharger. It is not functional but I thought it looked realy cool. I got it from an old model kit. If I remember right it was from a Drag car.

Eh, it doesnt look too good on an imported car. I mean like you said its from a "muscle car".

[4G63T]

its not my taste either....sorry
nice car though:)

[martin3103]

Last time i checked most of the rice Burners had fwd but all the xmods are rwd stock. Thats not very acuret.
In real cars adding another battery doesn't give you more hp but in an xmod it does.
The point of xmods is to be different. Thats why I decided on the BRIGHT green paint and the super charger. It is a one of a kind for now.
As for the blue skylines not my taste there are to many of them. But the gun metal Black SWEET.

[wasuri]

wow now people are calling fwd cars rice burners....holy (BC EDIT: Word removed) man that stupid

[Bad Company]

DO NOT post innapropriate words with or without symbols, etc!

[martin3103]

No. Rice burner = jap car aka nissan toyota Honda ect .

very nice
i love it
one of the nicest skylines on the forums

[viperkilla]

Great skyline. Have you guys noticed that alot of people are painting their skylines blue and their rsx's red. This is kinda weird.:confused:

[4G63T]

ya i noticed that:D
its kinda funny

[CtrlAltDel]

well 'cause the skyline looks best IRL in its blue
dunno about the rsx though

[itsalllies]

it is domb no afence but if all of the people who could paint a awsome car paint the same thing we will have no resons to have skyline gallerys because there are like three different



you paint job looks good but if i were you i would cange color
but that is my 2 cents

[1fastRSX]

my skyline i painted

[1fastRSX]

one more

[viperkilla]

That looks pretty cool. What brand of spray paint did you use? That is very clean looking.

[1fastRSX]

testors enamel paint...i mixed half blue/half silver and a little thinner and airbrushed it.

[viperkilla]

What type of airbrush do you have?

[1fastRSX]

the testors kit from wal mart...its actually very worth while...i should have pics of the new paint job on my rsx, skyline, and my newly bought supra

This is my beater race skyline. Since we race in a *dirty* warehouse shipping dock, the nice one isn't going to see the track. :lol:

http://www.seccs.org/gallery/Reno%20Meets/XMod%20Gallery/sperry/Doink%20Skyline%20109_600.jpg

[dragon4450]

awesome job on the endless man. was it hard to get the paint to adhere to the carbonfiber hood?

[4G63T]

very nice skyline, excellent work on it!
but damn that other skyline is a BEATER!:D :p

[viperkilla]

That skyline looks great. I think you need to paint the mirrors though. Where did you get those decals? You did a great job on masking.

[sperry]

No issues painting the carbon fiber since I put two coats of primer on everything 1st.

Then there's three coats of Blue Pearl spray paint.

After that I use some generic Testor's model paint for details like the black on the grills, and bumpers.

The decals were done with photoshop, and printed with Testor's BubbleJet wet transfer paper kit. Basically you can print decals, spray this sealer on 'em, cut 'em out and do the wet transfer thing like you'd do on most models.

Once everything was painted and decaled, I assembled the body, and clear-coated it with two coats of Hi-Gloss. The only drawback is that since I didn't mask off the flat black areas, like the rear underspoiler, everything's gloss now. I kinda liked the flat black under-spoilers.. oh well, next time!

Oh and the beater really is beat to hell... since we race at a warehouse, the ground is really dirty and it get all over the car. At least I don't car if the car rolls or crashes tho!

[4G63T]

but how come the body of the beater is so grey?
is it so dirty?
lol post some more pics of beater looks like fun

[sperry]

Originally posted by viperkilla

I went with the yellow mirrors for two reasons...

1) I needed a light color in order to toss the piggy decals on there (they're stolen from the WRC factory Subarus)

and 2) I thought it'd look cool to have the contrast of the bright mirrors on an otherwise dark car. A lot of times on real race cars, if you have two cars on the same team, one car will run with different mirrors so you can tell 'em apart. I figured I'd paint up as the #2 Endless Skyline... hehe.

It's kinda hard to see in the pics, but the Endless logo has a bright yellow stripe under the letters, and in person it actually matches the mirrors pretty well.

Thanks for the kudos, btw guys!

[4G63T]

lol post some pictures of beater!:D

[sperry]

Originally posted by 4G63T

lol post some more pics of beater looks like fun

The beater is litterally primer gray, with a stock front and hood, and some rejects from the "paint department" for the sides and rear (I originally painted 'em for the Endless car, but since I didn't prime 'em 1st, they turned out like crap... and were therefore perfect for the beater... lol). The windows were brush painted in about 5 minutes... hence the terrible masking.

Overall, I really like how GOD AWFUL the car looks... especially when it's faster than the 5 other guys that showed up for our 1st "Test n Tune" event last weekend.

:D

[vi3ti2avei2]

props on the good job u did.. wishi could do somethin like that... :eek:

[Bad Company]

Awesome job sperry! I really like that. Is the decal kit you got the one from Wal Mart? How does it work? Good?

Keep up the good work!

[sperry]

Originally posted by Bad Company

Thanks, that means a lot coming from the resident XMod master! ;)

Yes, the decal kit is the Testor's one available at Wal Mart.

The decal kit comes with both clear and white decal paper, and a special spray that allws the bubblejet ink to bind to the plasticy paper. One problem is that printers expect to print on white paper, so you won't be able to use the clear decals unless you're okay with only using very dark colors.

I used the white paper, since most my decals had white and/or light colors on them, and was a little disapointed that once the white decals were put on the dark blue car, they didn't look all that white... but overall I think the effect is quite good, since I can't think of a better way to do custom decals.

One thing to be carful about is drying times. You really have to make sure to let the ink dry, then wait for the sealant to dry a good couple of hours before applying the decals, or they'll bleed. Take a look at the "A" in my ZEAL window banner to see what I'm talking about... the surrounding blue ink kinda wiped away a bit. That's what'll happen if you rush it.

Thanks man!

I grabbed most of them from their respective websites, but some were litterally pulled off a picture of the car (like the Endless Cheetah). Photoshop can do some amazing things!

Nice job w/ the paint. I think ur the first to post an XMOD w/out side-view mirrors... lol I guess urs must have broken off too.. ;)

[4G63T]

lol i just noticed he doesnt have mirrors:D

[EMX]

no i didnt break off the mirrors, i just forgot to put them on for the "photo shoot" haha, i leave them off cause they get hit all the time when im driving it around.

[bigB653]

Here's my custom painted silver Nissan Skyline XMOD. I apoligize for the picture quality, i don't have one of those really expensive cameras that take the clearest pictures. Also, i didn't really have a great place to take pics, so this is on my crowded table. Hopeyou enjoy, and tell me what you think. Here's the first pic:

[viperkilla]

Whoa. Nice skyline. Is that a champagne (sp.) color or something?

[4G63T]

yeah, that is very nice skyline.
i think i have similar paint on my car.not sure tough

[bigB653]

Thanx, actually the paint is called Indy Silver, it's made by Pactra, it's in a spray paint can. This pic is a better shot of the one i had:

Here comes the KOOL views, LIGHTS ON!!!

[bigB653]

Last pic. The taillights;

[bigB653]

Okay, one last post, do you guys think i should put blue underglow on it? If yes, type...Put underglow. If not, type...NO UNDERGLOW! PLZ, and THANK YOU.

[4G63T]

put underglow:D
nice ride

[tenzo gt]

after much delays and paintswapping with my skyline, im repainting it this weekend, so hopefully will have pics soon !!!

p.s. - - white skylines are phatty!

[ddawg834]

yo bigb653 i think u suck and so does ur car. ur tail lights r so messed up ones brighter than the other. also u did a crapy job on the paint job. And no im not goin over to ur house this friday because ur not playin football. SO GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!
:bdrop: DEAD :D

[bigB653]

Thanx DDAWG834, i KNOW one taillight is brighter than the other, i tried to fix it, but it is what it is. And it's a GREAT skyline, better than your stock painted RED Supra. The only advantage you have is that you got the Stage 2 motor, and i didn't, i'm workin on the body before i work on the engine. And maybe you should just
:bdrop: DEAD, b4 i :blift: YOU WITH MY BUCKSHOT, HAHAHA. :D
O, and BC, i think that you should give DDAWG834 some kinda warning or suspension or something. Or better yet, you could make it so he has to post more times to become a higher level member, right now he's tryin to post some crap posts so he can get 20 quik. Also, just because i don't wanna play football, he doesn't wanna come over and play wit XBOX and XMODS, how gay is that?:confused:

[racemini89]

why are you guys whining and fighting, dont do it here go some where else. and ddawg i dont no what your problem is, his car looks nice.

[ddawg834]

Yo sup racemini89 well im srry but i think ur wrong.just because u like it doesnt mean that it looks good. and plus u have a skyline so u would like it. and bigb knows im just playin with him so just mind ur own business.

[4G63T]

ummmm
bad company...............:(

[viperkilla]

Yoo Hoo Bad Company.......

[Bad Company]

If I do something, it will be to you both of you. You have both broken the rules here by insulting each other and using innapropriate language (symbols or not)!

This kind of behaivor will not be permitted. There has been an awful lot of personal insulting going around lately, and I'm getting tired of having to have this converstion.

This is a warning to everyone.....Don't be suprised if bans are handing out from now on. I have warned various people in various threads over this subject matter. It's time to straighten out!

some ones tryn to earn some brownie points :rolleyes:

jk:p yeah hes right take the arguments like that somewere else, we dont wanna listen to them when were in the skyline gallery

[bigB653]

Ok, i wasn't trying to "whine" or "argue" and i apoligize, but BC, why would you punish ME? i was defending myself(and my skyline, lol), i don't understand why i should get punished. Also, me and ddawg834 have made up, and he probably won't be posting such mean posts anymore, i think you scared him BC lol:D
Sorry again to the tinyrc communty!!!

[Bad Company]

I'm not "trying" to punish anybody, but two wrongs don't make a right. If someone has done something you feel was/is wrong, report the post and a moderator will handle it, don't drag it out in the forum.

I have noticed that you two have settled you differences and it has been noted. ;)

[bigB653]

Kool, i'll do that next time, sorry again! And yes, we have "settled our differences."

That thing is incredible. I haev never seen an xmod like it.

[XAnubis]

well here's mine altho it's nowhere near finished , this is only the base coat,and altho someone has already done one in a color close to what i am doing i am not to worried about it looking tha same:

[M706]

neat roof scoop..how'd ya make it

[4G63T]

very nice:)
does the roof scoop actually works and brings cold air to engine?

[XAnubis]

I have not decided yet if i want to do that or not but it is possible, and i found the scoop in a box of old parts i had:)

[viperkilla]

Wow! That is awesome? Is that a chrome color? What brand of paint are you using? By the way nice roof scoop.

[aero528]

nice!! did you mask the windos?? it looks like you didnot.

[ZipRC]

he either didnt or did a hella good job masking em lol.

[XAnubis]

ok here goes,
the windows are not masked, i just handpainted the black on then threw a mask on after the silver leaf (Tamiya color wich also answers the second question.)
Thanks for the compliment on the scoop i was not sure it was gonna look right but it did:)

*PLEASE NOTE* the silver is mearly a base coat for my primary color wich will remain a secret untill it is applied:)

Thanks again all for the compliments!

[Shelby_HEMI]

Just a suggestion, BC...the stock the stock front end would look really sick in a good way on your Gunmetal Skyline.

As I said, just my opinion.

What is it about Skylines that they look perfect without any body kits?

[XAnubis]

nissan did something right?
believe me i am considering putting my stock one back on:)

[Shelby_HEMI]

another thing, it would be holy looking if you cut/trimmed off the chin spoiler on it, too

[racemini89]

[racemini89]

yea its worth it, it comes with some blank sheets so you can cut your own decals.

why yes it was that was the basecoat for the candy lime:)

[Shelby_HEMI]

wouldn't it have looked cool half 'n' half?

[viperkilla]

XAnubis, that is a great looking green skyline. I hasn't seen that. Very original. By the way is that tamiya spray paint? It looks like the one Bad Company used on his RSX.

[XAnubis]

viper thanks man!
Yes that is tamiya Candy lime green. Their paints are simply amazing for smooth application and quick drying:)
Oh little news for you all, Testors is also comming out with a line of paints in the same formula as the tamiya TS line:D

[XAnubis]

No idea when or if it will be available at walmart, but it's a possibility

[martin3103]

Its about time we see another green skyline. Do you plan on decales or detail paining. I havent decided what i want to do with mine.

[XAnubis]

Yeah i am planning to add mucho detail and all, even some not so easily seen:)

[XAnubis]

Well here is a update did some detail painting but the windows got a little fubard, i will fix them tho:)

one word!
sickkkkkkkkkkk;)

[viperkilla]

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: AWESOME! Where did you get those decals?

[Shelby_HEMI]

Can you say.....CLEAR TAILIGHTS?!!!:D :cool:

all you have to do is get a small piece of clear plastic (like off of a model car's windows) and cut circles out of it. make sure the plastic is relatively flat and fill in the little holes where the tailight covers were held in place

just an idea.

If your referring to the actuall skyline ones i got them from a tamiya kit, and just had them laser copied onto decal paper. The dragon is a varient of the one found in NFSU:)

[4G63T]

[danny_v_l]

[mando365]

[EMX]

Awsome skylines guys :tup:

i think there kinda dumb, they are a little to thik causing them to not bled or stick well to the contouurs of the car o and the designs are all black and boring, thy need to mak some decals that are unique and a thinalmost tatoo kind of materail that will stay on while driving

[Shelby_HEMI]

Originally posted by ridealot100

Ditto. I have permenant dibs on the idea of a black roof on a light colored car. (The opposite is true for MINI (or Mini, however you type it, I don't care). EX: Cooper (white roof on dark cars))

[nobodyhere962]

Comrade_Boris

How'd you keep the GTR symbol on the car

[XAnubis]

Thanks Comrade!

About the decals:
I used a copy of a decal sheet from a skyline model i have. Borught it and decal paper to the laser copy shop, and had some made up. Kinda pricy but worth it in my opinion.

[Comrade_Boris]

ok, ill try here....no one looks at my threads so ill post it here:
http://www.spymac.com/gallery/data/551/16302BW2.jpg
ya, that took 2 minutes in photoshop.......ill get a cleaner pic posted in a while.........but i think im going to repaint the air dam......it didnt come out too well.......should i use light grey or silver again?

[XAnubis]

Borris,
I think silver would be fine, slto red may look cool...just a hard color to brush since it's so thick.:)

[mando365]

lol its not pink so u can do a pink one ifu want ...my camera really sux so i looked pink lmao.

[Skyline]

heres my sky...didnt make windows, its for racing. show body will come later.

Nissan Skyline
Custom Paint (Green)
Bearing Upgrade
Super Charged (5th cell)
Light Kit (cool look)
Clear Bumper Guard

an idea:
if it isn't permanently attached, take off the blower and cut off the bottom portion. then reattach it to the hood so it looks like a Shelby-style air scoop.

[dietryin]

Nice hopefully ill have pics of my drift/slepper supra up soon.. just check in the supra room l8r

Nice looking Skyline, but I have one question:
Where did you get the Signal Auto graphics?

[red02zx3]

could someone tell me how they are going about painting their cars? I primed and painted mine and it came out BAD....maybe the primer didnt like the paint.....I used generic primer and testors red paint.

[Bad Company]

It is good practice to use the same brand primer and paint.

[red02zx3]

that is what I thought ......DANG IT:o

[Lord_HelmetR34]

I got this car for Xmas, and in three days have upgraded to AWD, suspension with yellow springs, custom "Nismo" rims, candy apple red paint with detailing, chopped wing, and lastly added a custom plate/frame. Just got to finish adding the last three wire grills and It should be done.
I'll post better pics later. I'm going to sleep.


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v456/HirotoR34/finalcandybpwallpaper.jpg

[kasper01001]

:eek: wow u did that in 3 days....:eek: and what kind of paint did u use? looks awsome

[shadowblade]

It comes equiped with suspention (blue spring) and steering (middle steering) upgrades, tire (soft custom tread) and wheel upgrades, Wild body kit (with carbon fiber hood), Bearing kit, AWD (of course), Stage 2 (red drag) motor upgrade and the Logic Lighting kit. The paint is "jade matalic enamel" by Testors (2 coats) with 1 coat primer. The lights and such were all painted with the testors "auto detail kit". Windows were masked, so were the tail lights and head lights (that was a pain). I will be adding graphics and racing decals and window banners to it. I will post when its done.

[shadowblade]

hope you like

[shadowblade]

yet, another

[Lord_HelmetR34]

very nice ride shadow. That color is very deep. You masked you're lights? I took mine out completely so that I could paint details behind the front lenses. It's a pain to put them back in, but it was worth the effort.

BTW: I used testors. The local hobby shop doesn't carry tamiya paints:mad:

[Shelby_HEMI]

very original color idea. it looks nice.

[powerhungry]

Took me half a day.. kinda jacked at the back because it's so freakin cold and the paint sorta bubbled... I use a hair dryer to dry the paint fast...
