I’m in awe at some of the stuff that is produced in the paint shop and could never get close. I have tried a couple of racing replicas (in this and Forza’s of old) but always compromised with logos, etc. Because of this I decided to try an original design of my own inspired by the rat look. It’s the first time I’ve tried rust and decay and the first car I’ve spent so many hours (soooooo many hours!) painting.
This isn’t ‘scene’ rat look i.e. sticker bombed and deliberate rust, but a part-restored, tatty, mismatched panel colour, barn find kind of rat.
The idea was for a faded red base colour with peeled stickers, some body panels replaced including a door from the scrap yard (price still on!) and plenty of rust still present where restoration is still needed.
Thanks for looking!
