    A couple of colors I picked up. I'm liking the darker green. What's your vote? Light or dark. I'm thinking the hood will be matte black either way.

    Darker green gets my vote, especially with matte black hood.

    You should go Blazing Blue Pearl with red and white accents on the bed sides.

    Definitely darker. It looks kinda like Toyota's Army Green.

    Exactly, but going Matte this time. Easy touch up when I get road rash.

    What about painting the whole thing light green as a base then fade in the darker green with the black hood and accents? Or maybe a retro paint scheme with the light green to darker green to black. Just a suggestion.

    With this one anything is possible but my painting skills are very poor. I have to keep it kinda simple. Lol
    I am looking for scale sponsor style decals to put along the bottom but hard to find. May have to get a hold of @CBoy808 ?

    The more intricate the paint job, the more difficult the touch ups will be later, too.

    As much as I like the idea of a cool paint scheme, for the sake of your future self, I'd keep it simple.

    Maybe something like a mini wrap or Goat Armor wrap. It may be more durable than paint.

    I'm just trying to get you to think outside the box.

    Just get some Cricut vinyl and do a custom wrap yourself.

    So where does yours stand at this time? Haven't seen any updates in awhile. Just been too busy?

    I kinda burned myself out working on it. It's just been sitting in my garage, waiting to be finished. I'm getting to do the McNeil 2nd gen to 3rd gen conversation to my truck, so I may have more motivation to complete it once I'm done.

    It's easy finding 1/10 scale stuff but some of it's a little too small. This is 1/9 scale so it fits great. Now if it only opened up. Lol
