“I have been painting models for 30 years and now do lots
of pearl and complex schemes that take up to 20 hours
just to paint. It usually takes about 200+ hours to build the
complicatedmodels. The HSV HRT Viper’s that I recently
painted for a friend andmyself aremy current favourite.
“They are all red, white and black pearl that stands out in
the sun. I use conventional spray guns and an airbrush to
create some of themore complex schemes I have done. My
best advice to people coming into the sport is listen to the
people who are at the height of the hobby. There is no easy
solution or ways to save time or costs other than hard work
and practice.
“The same relates to painting models, preparation and
planning. I have been painting cars andmotorbikes for 30
years. Using good tools and quality paints aremy secret to
success.”
Just some of the models Luke has painted
“My favourite model is my trusty Extra 260 that I
painted in the Castrol Edge Scheme.”
