bitPimps... Keep On Truckin'

Here's the bit I worked on in celebration of our contest







- custom made truck body from toyota Bb body.
- lowered front end.
- gold suspension springs in front.
- pullback wheels.
- painted in the colors of the bitPimps website.
- blingin fake diamond for grill ornament.
- neon blue LEDs for headlights (that don't glow under the body - just used as headlights).
- bitPimps logo on hood.
- mirror tinted windows all around.
- dual smoke stack exhaust. (comes straight from the headers for an extra 40 horsepower and they're really loud lol)
- sexy slut silhouette painted on bed of truck.

Did ya draw out that silhouette or print out a stencil?
The paint scheme reminds me of BA's van from the A-team, You da shizzle mang.

damn you hog! lol
I really didn't wanna put this info out there, but I guess I have to.

Originally, I was going to hand paint it.
No stencils would work for various reasons.
I needed to have the logo be exact as I was modeling the car from the bitPimps website, so that threw out hand painting.

... I made my own sticker kinda and tried to hide the fact as much as possible by cutting out only as much as I needed.
Glued it on using paint. Adhered it by applying very very thin coat of clear coat (otherwise it would bleed badly), kept doing that until it was done.

it's actually produced and used for car models for chrome trimming, door locks, etc.
most modelers have probably heard of it.
