So I was thinking one way to do the paint on my car, I haven't seen it done, but something I was watching last night made me think I could try it to see how it does. Just wanted to see what other people thought.

2g 95 Talon with 97 front painted flat black top & flat army green with the sharks face... Like the P40 Warhawk's (tigersharks)

And I'd have to figure out some way to make the eyes blend into the head lights.

Yea, the only thing that I'm worried about is I plan on having the mouth end just before the door... but that puts it right through the tirewell. Causing a gap in the mouth.
 
One thing that might look funny is that it would have a very large wide mouth. Since the Plane is slimmer it doesn't look that way, but the eclipse is kinda wide so it might look funny. I'd look into having someone photoshop it for you.
 
Yea, I was going to do it when I got home, just didn't want to take up valuable time doing this on teh clock.
 
Yeh, if you have the wheel well be the front of the mouth it might look great. Are you going to do the eyes as well? If so, where do you plan on placing those?

Good idea, it has potential!
 
After looking at the car I'd have to extend the mouth to about 1/4-mid door.
I would probably do the eyes starting at the lights and extend them a little bit.
 
I suppose if you're trolling for 12-year-old boys at the local junior high school, it'd be swell.

Otherwise.... well.... :rolleyes:

Defiant.. You are a smart ass... Why do you always have negative remarks to peoples questions in regards to anything CUSTOM? I think you need to grow up and respect your MOD status. It makes the site seem horrible with a mod that is so inclined to bash someones ideas. I don't think it would look that great , but are your remarks really helping ? For you to talk about trolling for 12 year old boys, that is pretty drastic. It's a darn paint scheme... What gives with your attitude?
 
Who would defiant be if he didn't drink his gallon of hatorade in the morning?





Oh wait, tolerable. Been reading this site for years, nothings changed. Don't imagine it ever will.
 
^^^^ROFLROFLROFLROFL. Dude, that is Defiant being nice. this is one of those ideas that looks really good in your head, but when excuted, doesn't look so good. It was a good idea, buty I just don't think the lines of the car follows the paint scheme. Maybe if you just paint it army green and put some(honda) kill emblems on the side? I don't know, just thrown it out there...
 
Actually I kind oflike the way that looks, I'd shorten up the mouth a little bit. I was wanting to put the kill emblems on the side, like the [H] /-\ (\/) etc

Maybe I should paint one of those old school Bombshell Blondes on the back twards the gas tank.

I was also wanting to do rivets and things like that (they're really easy to do)
 
Well looking at the Photoshop some more I'd either have the mouth start at the wheel well and continure where it is or have it stop about mid door and wrap around the front. I was also thinking of more of a green, but that desert tank color doesn't look bad either.

Thanks again Defiant for the photoh4x
