A car with the brand name Phoenix, does have to have a phoenix paint job, methinks, and this is my attempt to make name and body justice.

Nothing like the local skate park for interesting backgrounds. So, beast number six is finally done: Fawkes the Phoenix. Blue and orange, contrasting colors for a simple and effective color scheme.

					<description><![CDATA[Today: heads. Because heads are important, not only to people in general, but also to an RC interior. If you&#8217;re doing an interior, it&#8217;s worth spending a bit of extra time on your chosen driver&#8217;s head, because that&#8217;s what our eyes are naturally drawn to.

					<description><![CDATA[A really good thing with the SCX10III is that it comes with an interior, complete with a driver. It certainly adds a lot to the look. Especially so if the interior is nicely painted. True, it is seldom seen up close, but still I like to spend some time on it. I mean, why not? [&#8230;]]]></description>
