Another success. What would look good is a 3D printed lawn mower and a few Garden tools in the back.

Yes, the metallic green Rolls Royce is hideous but how about getting the fine paintbrush out ?

The model needed new paint and tires.

What I like on custumizing models is that you learn how they where made.
I never thought about that the Body of this model was made of two parts.

Looks good in green. Somehow "bigger" :)
Did you spray with a rattlecan? I think, it´s quite difficult to spray this specific model with all the gaps and corners properly with a rattlecan.

After I painted quite a few models with rattlecans I have some experience.
Two years bevor it would not have worked.
I´d like to have a Paintbrush bud I think you need a good workingplace for it wich I do not have the space for.
