Hey guys, Started this about 4 hours ago. Wanted a lil insight on the motor.. it says to paint it semi-gloss black. But that doesent seem to good does it?

PICS!

I think you've done a good job on the finish.

Here is a link of an image of the engine

I think you can leave it black. The fairings will cover most if it once its done.

gargh Ok, I need a lil paint help here fellas. I sprayed the body with the tamiya metallic blue. Then i did a small "top coat" protective layer with future.then i proceeded to spray it (after it satovernight) with a lacquer clear.. well.. all the paint melted away!! anyone have any advice of what went wrong? all my paint expertise is telling me this was impossible.. so. help. aha.
