admin 12 February, 2017 Finished Models
This build was more focussed on the paintjob. I gave it a somewhat custom paintjob with a gungrey body with orange and black side-striping. But to make it stand out, I also gave it a true-flames paintjob. This color-scheme was also my inspiration to paint the Luxury Yacht in these
