That's Photoshop. It's a "little" bit tricky to figure out to do real complex stuff, but all that is using magic wand selection tool, holding the shift key and selecting the areas you want. Then just use the bucket and fill the selected area. Takes a few minutes for the first one, then about a minute per pic.

i think it'd look badass going with flat black and do all the trim in lime green (suspension, wheels, racing stripes, bumpers, etc)

To get a picture embedded in the post there are a few buttons directly above where you are typing in your message. If you run your mouse over them they say stuff like "insert image" "insert hyperlink" etc.

You will want to right click on the picture you want to use, go to properties, then copy the URL given for the pic only. From there you go back to the message, and click on the lil button that looks like a mountain, and paste the URL into a box that pops up. The image should be in your post then.

Or you could do it the old school way.

How about painting the truck one color then put the boss mustang racing stripes on it, you know the ones that went across the hood right in front of the cowl then down each side for a ways then turned and went strait back, you could do that scheme with the Orange you already have as the main color then the black stripes, just a thought, maybe some could photo shop that for you,

Skipped - I was seriously considering doing that as well. I've got pretty much all the bodywork done on this truck, except a few dents I'm not going to pop and some bondo work. I've decided that I want to do something easy for paint, and not do the 18 gazzilion steps I would have to do with the PPG paint I have bought. This paint could be sold tomorrow to a buddy if I wanted to go a cheaper route.

Kubota - I'm thinking along the lines of you on this project. The whole truck has been put together relatively cheap so far, so I just as well keep it that way. Its not a show truck by any means, and I am going to beat the crap out of it once its driving

This is HOT!

Here it is! Go bling or go home!

Obviously the Bling paint, Big Triple Tube Chromie Bars, Nice Chromie Trim Strip down the body, Big Rainbow Whale Tail out back, Custom Wheels w/ GOLD lugnuts, Rainbow Spot lights, and the Ultra Trick Panty Dropper Purple Neon underneath!

DEAD SEXY!
