Exo-Shell

I painted a few more bits and pieces to compliment my model at the exhibition tomorrow night - I blame you Brett ;)  The colourful pieces are additional 'Exo-Shells' that could replace the carbon fibre parts, to allow people to colour match their product to their vehicle/taste.  I also painted up the carbon molds to display with some squares of raw carbon fibre cloth.


I took a little vid to try show the paint better, it's hard to show the metallic and the finish in images, even this doesn't show it as well as I'd hope, that probably comes down to my fail video skills (where were you mike :).  Added some mad music for extra 'corny-ness'.








The pearl/metallic content in these photos looks much coarser than it actually is, the camera only picked up the larger pieces of metal.

  1. Ha ha ha is the music sped up a bit?

    i have no movie skills.. i just want to learn.. its not easy.. and handheld things are fail straight up. i've found that out, and i'm sure you have too. You have the right idea with the video though, if all the ones i'm most inspired by are doing it right.

  2. Haha, yeah man hand held FTL. Thats how I got the track, it's a remix or something, it's not a bad song actually, or at least the vocal component; Adrian Lux - Teenage Crime.
