    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    It may not be for everybody and my color match was slightly off (I think because I used to dark of a primer under neath) but on my latest project I use a latex house paint. I cut it with minwax water based polyurethane and sprayed it on. After it cured for a couple of days I just used rattle can...

    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    It will take less lightening in the tail than you think. I think someone once told me that for every ounce you remove from the tail it's like adding 3-4 ounces to the nose.
