made a little broadway style mirror. Made this in literally 5-10min then painted it. I plan to make a more realistic looking one that can move as well.

thanks! I actually paint a lot of RC bodies for people and just sell them. There are a few companies online selling decently priced entry level kits that have upgraded parts already.

If anyone has a car they want replicated, as long as they have an RC body if it, i can do it.

you are talented and have a great eye for detail. Im not joking when I say you could easily sell models like this to guys on CL for 50-60 bucks piece . Not sure if that even makes it worth your time.
