Ok so i still need to work on colour choice and where not to put logo's but things can only improve from here. I can see i am up against it with the quality of paints i have seen so far. Everything i post i like to have pointed out things that are wrong so i can learn faster, so its over to you. ;)

Well, Neil...I'm not a painter (yet), but the only thing I see that looks wrong if the roof number.  It just needs to be moved forward so the antaena isn't sprouting from it.   :)

The rear window banner could stay or go.   :dunno:

I think you've done a top notch job there!   :biggrin:  Great looking car!!   :hats off:

Tnx for comments, to be honest the roof number is where it is on the template same as the rear window banner so i will look into that for the next one.

 :think: That's interesting.  It just looks a little funny to MY eye seeing the antaena (sp?) sticking out of it.

I really like your color choices.  And the graphics have a pleasing look...Not too busy looking.   :)

As I said before...GREAT looking car.   :biggrin:

Good work mate. Just watch where the V of Valvoline goes behind the rear door handle. Other than that it's tops.

That roof number is in the same place on all template on all the cars. Pretty useless but it must be where the real WTCC cars have them for chopper cam.

Neil..nice work as usual. You should post all your nr2003 cars and all the other cars you paint on something like http://www.flickr.com/ so that everyone can check them out. You would have a great gallery of all the cars.

PS. I will need to email you but I was wondering if you could paint a nr2003 car and render it for a friend of mine. He drag races in real life but I think he would love a custom painted car for his desktop.
