How do you do that shit with the colors. Wouldn't mind a go at that.

You can do that very quickly with Paint Dot Net (www.getpaint.net). theres and add-in that lets you do do it with a twist of some dials...

Nice colors you've picked. I'd paint it gray or green.

the orange doesn't suit the shape of this car, if you do it grey, make it metallic and brighter.

If you are to respray, colour code the tops of the doors.

just a thought.

The add-in (plugin) is called "conditional Hue/Saturation"
