2008 Buddy Lazier

[lazierfan]

Built this from a Ryan Brisco Greenlight car. Detailed the engine with a few wires and made headers to fill all of the open space inside the body work. Detailed the inside of the cockpit with carbon Fiber decals and flocked the seat and head rests.

Thanks, I almost forgot one of the most important things on this build. The Fantastic decals. They are Michael's from IndyCals latest offering. They went on great as always and the fit was dead on.

Thanks,
Michael

Paint brand & colors?

[lazierfan]

Welcome professor.

White is Tamiya pearl white TS-45
Purple is Testor Plum Crazy 2950
Yellow is Colors by Boyd Aluma Yellow Pearl 52910
Clear is Tamiya Clear TS-13

Make sure to leave enough time between colors as you run the risk of problems as the paints are not all from the same line. I painted the complete car with the White pearl, masked off the white and shot the yellow,masked the yellow and evrything left shot purple. Then cleared the whole thing. I didn't apply the decals until after the clear.

Another little tip . I found that using automotive pintripe works great for masking for the different colors. it snugs down in all of the corners and comes up very easy. Once I have masked the outlines of the colors I use blue painters tape to cover what doesn't need painted. Good Luck.

I have been meaning to tell you Eric. Awesome Job!
With any luck, you will be doing another Buddy Lazier car again this year!

Great job, it's too bad that the car was not up to talent of the driver. I hope Buddy has a better ride this year.
