Cartoon RC Body - Done With Tamiya Spray Paint Cans

I try my hand at the cartoon / anime style RC body painting. It seems these are mostly done with airbrushing, but I'm doing it with good ol' rattle spray cans!
I've got to say thank you to ‪@RCHobbyShed‬ for the video walkthrough!

Congratulations Mike. I love this car's paintwork. 👏👏

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thank you! really appreciate it.

[@outbackrcaustralia4895]

Hi Mike, Great paint job mate👌, the windows turned out awesome too. Thanks for giving RC Hobby Shed Mick a shout out!!!! He's a great inspiration and artist and a perfectionist. Thanks for the run down on your bodies and hopefully this beauty won't get squashed🤞😬. Sub'd to your channel now and thanks for sharing your video mate👍🦘🇦🇺

[@TheRCScotsman]

Hi there! Thank you, much appreciated. Absolutely, credit where credit's due and his video provided all the information needed! He's a very good creator and hobbyist. Thanks for the sub! Take care!

[@robertmckinlay7242]

You've done a fantastic job and you have fulfilled your own brief apart from the lettering which is more Purple Ronnie to be fair. I like it a lot.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thank you! Not going to lie, I had to look up Purple Ronnie. Not something I was familiar with!

[@ryanfox2488]

I only use spray paint because I'm not an artist, I hate the tediousness of painting and masking and I don't like paying for a custom job that ill just get destroyed eventually. So I tried a cartoon job with a single solid colour and I had a lot of fun. For the next body I'll give shading a try but it really made a difference in my enjoyment of painting a body. I don't care if the fad dies out quick, I'll keep going with it because I had fun, and to me, that's what matters.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Exactly. If you're having fun, then you've won. Doesn't matter what's currently "in".

[@RCHobbyShed]

Hi Mike! That turned out great, the flat clear really does take it to the next level. It looks even better than not bad! 🤣 Thanks for the shoutout too mate, I really appreciate it. I've shared your video in my Facebook group and on my community tab on KZbin, I hope it helps. Great job, Mike. It looks awesome! 😍👍 P.S. The writing on yours cracked me up. 😂👌

[@TheRCScotsman]

Greetings and welcome! Thanks a lot, I'm glad you approve. Ah, brilliant. Thank you very much! Really nice when the RC community helps each-other out. Really appreciate it! Ha! I'm glad! 😆

[@sustorres765]

You guys are brilliant at this, I got the body and some paint pens, now to give it a crack, thanks for the tips 👍

[@TheRCScotsman]

Best of luck, have fun! @@sustorres765

[@harveyjordan2507]

Nice cartoon paint job

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thank you!

[@pocketfuloducks1062]

Looks really good! Seems a shame you don’t just stay further away from the marshalls.. 😂 Anyway, I hope this one does well for you til the other body is ready

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thanks! Yeah, I know... luck of the draw, I guess. Hope so! Have no complaints about the Phat Bodies GTM (other than the fact it doesn't come with light stickers!).

[@AntsPlants]

I’m doing a Tamiya racing truck tomorrow, see how it goes

[@TheRCScotsman]

Good luck!

[@GhostRyderFPV]

F yes, my Anime brain lumps approve 150%!

[@TheRCScotsman]

Ha! Some sort of cyberpunk-anime vibe going on!

[@aviano72]

That look amazing ! I saw Mick's video about it and just like you said it looked so like a cgi effect on his video, something like that :) Do _not_ let any marshal step on it

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thank you! Yeah, it really did! It helps that his videos are always so well lit, so you can see every detail... then there's the cartoon shell! I REALLY hope it doesn't happen, but it's not like they asked for permission! 😆

[@stevemoon2136]

Sounds like the quarter Marshall's got it in for you.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Well, I hope not, because it was two separate guys!

[@gillian9178]

These 2 marshals weren't English were they ha ha.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Haha! Nope, both Scottish!@@gillian9178

[@gillian9178]

Phew that's great to know lol, as im English but my late father was from Glasgow.@@TheRCScotsman

[@TheRCScotsman]

There is an English guy at the club, but I haven't seen him in a few weeks. He wasn't involved!@@gillian9178

[@gillian9178]

Looks great mate, I like it.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thanks! Glad you like it.

[@semperatis]

What a great idea Mike, that looks the bees knees mate.

[@TheRCScotsman]

Thanks, David! The tutorial gives you everything you need.

[@LawrenceTimme]

These shells must be getting expensive

[@TheRCScotsman]

I'd rather not think about it!! 😆

[@LawrenceTimme]

@@TheRCScotsman you'll have a shell for every day of the week soon!

[@TheRCScotsman]

Uhhhh... I just counted... I have seven of them! @@LawrenceTimme 🤦‍♂

[@AntsPlants]

Did you get many finger prints on the inside of the body when you did the cartoon lines??

[@TheRCScotsman]

None at all. Put the body down on the surface and hold it steady with your free hand. No need to touch the inside with your fingers.
