Re: Customizing Q&A Thread

What I'd suggest to do to start is just to make some practice runs at things. Get different paints, try out some painting on dollar store Transformers, then get more ambitious as you go.

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread

In my limited experience I've found that Krylon brushes on quite smooth(just spray it inot an empty butter container or the like), but I suck with water based acrylics and such.

Re: Customizing Q&A Thread

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

Well thats the real trick. I ran into this problem while I was doing Wasp. While I just trundled ahead with a couple bad wheels I think in retrospect I might try boiling the fender and wheel in water...

Thanks Noodle.Spray paint for the yellow and just a brush for some of the purple. The head was from a KO transforming dinosaur I picked up at biglots in the states. I cut some parts of the head off...

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

Thanks, Dak. But baby steps is my thing right now. I've got my Runabout back a few pages and now Dragstrip. Runamuck is my next project. I'd love to do a few more Stunticons in the future. Maybe once...

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

I still have a bit of...

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

Thanks Dak, I'll try some of those idea's when I get around to Runamuck. As for the head I just altered classic Bumblebee's head which is of course the base as well. Cut off his "ears" and added some...
