BenDoCo I'm getten too old for this s**t Bronze Donating Members 4,509 Member For: 11y 10m 1d Gender: Male Location: A big bridge over a river in South Australia Posted 24/09/14 03:50 AM Share Posted 24/09/14 03:50 AM I do agree with what you're saying about things being symmetrical and back in the days that the OP speaks of I remember taking my HQ to many different car shows (in SA and Mildura) and seeing heaps of custom paint jos such as this but with a totally different image on each side.I like this - +1 - well done and I agree, should be more of it ..

(Shrink calls it OCD or something).. But I can't handle logos/stickers (or pictures apparently) on cars that aren't mirrored/symmetrical.. I want the driver side to be perfectly mirrored to the passenger side.. Artwork looks sensational though mate.I was originally going to have the same on both sides but the guy who did it said that he does each side different because when people see one side and then look at the other they just say oh, it's the same, so I went with the different designs.This guy also painted the Maiden on the nose of the Virgin Blue planes and does tribute cars.

sr71 Member 52 Member For: 10y 9m 27d Posted 24/09/14 06:32 AM Share Posted 24/09/14 06:32 AM Nice work Mate.Have you replaced the seatbelt with a Harness. I heard a Hornet pilot say that he strapped his jet onto him, as if it was a jet pack ( backpack ).HUD would be good too, wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you have set the bar very high for the rest of your mods.I can see this turning into an aviation themed show car. That paintwork is just to good for a daily.
