It looks great! The shiniest Lunchie ever! It was kind of funny seeing the body in a full sized paint booth add being painted with a gun almost as big as the body itself!
kudos to your wife's workplace for letting her do this project for you while doing her regular job. and ya! i painted my Tamiya Knight Hauler with automotive paint. Ford Engine Blue Enamel. used 2 cans of it and damn is it ever strong paint! but, reminder to those, don't use automotive paint on lexan bodies since it will chip and crack and should only be used on hardbodies. great job Briana and Fil! cheers to both of you. see you in the next one!
I love this hobby, its great to get everyone involved and the passion that goes along with it. Getting that sprayed in an actual car booth and getting all the process filled is just amazing!❤
That has got to be the best looking Lunchbox ever Fil! Props to you both for putting together an absolute gem worthy of any RC collection! In fact this one should be in the Tamiya show room pal 😍
Sweet Box! I bought a small paint set-up a couple years back to paint a motorcycle I was restoring. I've been wanting to paint a couple RC bodies since, I've even got some yellow leftover...
Holy Tamiya rails! I throw the last pass of clear over the stickers to preserve them. My Bear Hawk looks the same as the day I built it. .... but it's permanent.
I had been wondering how to bond the decals to the paint... and then if an automotive clear would attack the decals and ruin it all... or if the decals would delaminate and pop the clear! Awesome! I appreciate the education!
Glad the video helped! Just make sure to hit the decals with a hair dryer, so they're set reeeaaallly well, with no raised edges, and the clear coat won't cause any issues. 😁
Great vid Fil, l always said the most iconic tamiya's are in 2wd the Sand Scorcher, 4wd the Hotshot and has to be said monster class the Lunchbox its just super iconic! That paint job is....well professional!😘
What a stunning result! Well worth the extra effort, and tell her good job! Really nice video, buddy, I enjoyed your talk bits, the build bits and of course the paint section, even the silly AI music was oddly enjoyable... Good one, buddy! Enjoy your weekend off, well deserved!
That's a good idea for my Grey Clod. Your wife may be able to make a second income stream off of well-painted bodies. Or a good raffle idea...Just a painted body, not a full kit.
@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC did you write something that caught the eye of the anti-fun algorithm? 😂👊🏼 Thanks for the feedback, brother! We're both super happy with how this one turned out! Now to move it on to its new home... 😢
@poorboysrc Most probably mate...... I'm always having comments getting eaten across all channels!! 😂 Seems like we have to write in code these days buddy..... sensorship gone mad! 🙄 👍 👍
@@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC Orwell wasn't wrong when he wrote 1984, was he? Crazy stuff, mate. It's happening here in Canada, too. What a bizarre time to be alive.
Wow epic paint job by your other half, looks amazing! Loving the AI songs on these, very funny. I think that the name Vanessa came about just because it's a van and Vibrant Vannie is another play on that. Anyway top work Fil, most enjoyable 👍👍
Thanks, Pete. You're probably right about the names. Van = Vanessa. Vanessa = Vannie. I love the way they come up with these names. I needed some hilarious AI tracks to compliment the spirit of Vibrant Vannie. 😂
I have the chrome midnight pumpkin. I think this would look great next to it, so I'm grabbing some tickets. Mrs Poor Boys nlknow what's up with the PPG paint if I was in Canada I would get her to paint my BMW E36 M3 and Nissan 180SX both are up for a refresh 🎉🍻
Oh yeah, this Lunchie next to the Chrome Pumpkin!?!? Man, that would be a killer duo!!! 😍😍😍 You've got a couple sweet cars there, my friend! Mrs. Poor Boys painted my 1994 Firebird Formula a couple of years ago, and it's so shiny and black, you can literally shave in the reflection! 😍
Woah, what a paint job, Fil! Props to your lovely wife, she is a pure demon with that spray gun! 😍 Great job on the build too, the stance looks perfect! As for the name, I think Vanessa is from Van and it's as simple as that! Vibrant Vannie but I can't help thinking "Vibrant Fanny" when I see that! 😅😅The theme music and lyrics made me smile, brother! Nice one! 😎👊👍
Vibrant Fannie! Hahaha, i love it!!! The theme songs were hilarious! The AI song maker had me in stitches! 😂 Thanks for watching my Vibrant Fanny, pal! 😂😂😂 🍑
It looks great dude , the misses did a great job. ( Much better then i can 😅😂) And the lunchy is such a nice ride . The person that win's it will have a great rc car and lots of fun with it
Does your wife have any tips on using automotive paints on tamiya plastic shells? I did a grand hauler in metallic red using rattle cans. I did 2 coats of plastic primer, 3 or 4 coats of the red to get it deep and uniformed then 2 coats of clear (over decals and other trim bits painted). Problem is when I put a few screws in, some of the paint chipped off really easy.
I taught her how to paint many moons ago. If you follow the steps in my "How to Paint RC" videos, you won't have any more issues. Whether is ABS or Polycarbonate, the rules are the same when it comes to prep. Washing and Scuffing your body would've eliminated the chipping. Watch this one, and if you go into my Playlists, you'll find one dedicated to paint tips. Watch those vids, you'll learn everything you need to know! 😉👊🏼 ua-cam.com/video/5aX97F5j2TY/v-deo.html
@poorboysrc thanks, I'll deffo watch them as I'm looking at a clod buster and want to do that a deep green next. I washed the shell and let it dry but I didn't scuff it up so that may be the problem. The paint does look really good, just is cracks easy so will end up a shelf queen till I buy another body and sticker set.
@@dannyseville2543 The scuff makes a huge difference! It gives the paint some mechanical adhesion. Temperatures can have a lot to do with it, too. Paint hates cold. So if you're painting on a cold day, there's some special techniques you can use. If you ever need some more help, shoot me an email, or message me. :)
@poorboysrc I'll give that video a watch and see if I can pick up where I went wrong. I think it may have been the scrubbing the surface part as I did everything kinda right (temps, thin layers to build up, let it dry etc) Thanks for your help 😊👍
She's the most amazing person I've ever met! From the moment we met, we were on the same page, and have always been each other's biggest supporters. 🥰🥰🥰

Wow, that's a nice build Fil.
I also like the soundtrack. Can you do an tutorial video how to do AI music and the costs or legals about it, please?
I'll shoot you an email, Dirk! 👊🏼

Thanks, dude! Stoked with how this one turned out! 😍
Turned out great. 2k clear is a great choice to protect your RC’s paint job.
Thanks, pal! 😁
Props to the wifie Fil! She's the GOAT. What says Christmas better than a lunch box! Look at Vannie's Fanny! Damn!
Don't tell the wife I've been staring at Vannie's Fannie! 🍑😎😂😂😂
What an epic lunchie! Such an original paint job! and lights! Great job to you both!!
Vanessa would be proud! 😅👊🏼
I dont think ive ever seen a lunchie shine like that ? Great job 👌
The shiniest Lunchie in all the land! 😂
Sweet Box! I bought a small paint set-up a couple years back to paint a motorcycle I was restoring. I've been wanting to paint a couple RC bodies since, I've even got some yellow leftover...
You like my Box? Why, thank you!!! :)
Hopefully this vid inspired you to give it a go. You can't go wrong with auto body paint on an RC! :)
Holy Tamiya rails! I throw the last pass of clear over the stickers to preserve them. My Bear Hawk looks the same as the day I built it. .... but it's permanent.
That outer layer of clear makes everything POP so nicely! 😍😍😍
Your title was NOT clickbait! Awesomeness!
Ha, excellent! Glad you liked it, and I hope you stick around! 👊🏼🍻
That’s a good looking Lunchbox right there!
Thanks! 😁
Dang Fil!!!! That came out so sick!!! Man i wished i lived closer to you and have your wife paint my wife's XJ!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks, dude! It's amazing, the difference high-end paints can make! 😍
Your wife did a cracking job,from a fellow sprayer of real cars 👌
@Mrtrc33 thank you! I'll be sure to let her know a fellow painter approves! 😊
Stunning Lunchie 👍🏻
Excellent job by Mrs Fil, and the songwriting background group, love it.
@@JustforFun-xh6ld thanks on all accounts, brother! 😁👍🏻
@ Raffle entered, crossing fingers as I’ve never pulled the trigger on a Lunchbox 🤞🏻😃
@@JustforFun-xh6ld tha ks, brother! Good luck!!! 😁👌
Wow, that is a great look box. I like the tip with the front shocks
Thanks, man! I think that's one of the things that really sets this build apart! 😁
Beautiful looking Lunchbox!
Thanks, brother! 👊🏼😁
I hope my Lunch box looks this great. had it for a couple of years but haven't painted it .
Lunchie's are the best, you're gonna love it!
Great looking lunchbox, that gloss finish 👍🏼

@poorboysrc hahaha sounds like a good team. Me and my son build the trucks, but can't get the wife interested lol
@@Trent_Mercury It's nice that you and your son build together. That's awesome!
That be too nice to drive, hope its going on a shelf
Me too! 👍🏻
That is really nice. Koodos to your Wife. Awesome.
Thanks, brother! 👊🏼
Cool music 😂 Dude, if I had that Lunchbox, I'd be hanging that body on the wall and buying another one to run.
It could be yours! 😉👊🏼
Looks amazing. I think you should sign the inside of the body!
Yeah, absolutely! Thanks for the reminder. 😁👊🏼🍻
Perfect paint job and Perfect stance 🤘
Thanks, brother! 👊🏼
THAT IS STUNNING!!!!
Thanks, Glenn! 😁
Bought a bundle of tickets for this one Fil!
Ah, nice! Thanks, brother! Good luck on the Raffall! This would be a great Lunchie to add to your collection! 😍
Perfect Saturday morning video brother!
Haha, nice! Glad you liked it, pal. There's a couple nice songs in there for you to sing in the shower. 😂
I have a finger that you can smell. Lol loving the channel lol a full 4 tire sniff
Lol! Gross! 😅👍🏻
This thing looks sick. I'd have a hard time parting with it. Fingers crossed
Honestly! I kinda wanna keep it. 😂
@poorboysrc I don't blame you. She's a beautiful machine. If I win it I'll take good care of it
@wadevallbona5314 i know you will, brother! 😉👊🏼

Thanks, Paul! I'd love to take the credit, but the wife did all the heavy lifting on this one. 😊

Great job bro!!

It went pretty hard, didn't it? Vanessa insisted. 😂

Thanks, C.K. - Nice vid! Just made that jump! 😎
Now isn't that a co incidence, I'm starting on my Lunchbox Black Edition today. Would be rude not to grab a couple of tickets!
Hahaha, it's Lunchbox weekend!!! Have fun with your build, pal! That black edition is a beauty! 👌👌👌
Absolutely awesome build and paint bro!! What do you think about clear coating the wheels to match the shine of that beautiful body?
It's doable, but it might be too much shiny-ness? Haha. 😂
Should I head to my local auto shop for rc hard bodies paint???
Go for it! 😂
