Let's paint a BVM Bandit!
Working on another project, painting a BVM Bandit. This is for a friend of mine who lost his at FJ this year. He had the bare airframe and it was close to ready for paint.
See attached pics.

Re: Let's paint a BVM Bandit!
Here's the color scheme they wanted to duplicate. It's a BVM current scheme (not on their site, but it is a current scheme) that a friend of mine has. So he was able to send me the sizes for the markings....

Re: Let's paint a BVM Bandit!
So, after getting it prepped, the first coat of paint was a base of white.

Re: Let's paint a BVM Bandit!
The white was yesterday. Today I masked off the white and sprayed the orange.
Tomorrow I hope to get the markings added. Shouldn't be too difficult. With the exception of the intake markings they are all just single color masks.

Re: Let's paint a BVM Bandit!
Looks awesome Sean . Great idea putting a coat of white before the orange .. saves tons of paint and creates brilliance in the orange .. Looking good !!!!!!!!
