I don't usually paint/customize me figures, but I figured that I could add a few touches with three sharpie markers and not potentially wreck the figure.
I used a bronze, silver and blue sharpie marker, and the did the job just fine.

Nice job, I may try to do that.

Thanks guys! I didn't do much(it took minutes to do with a steady hand) but i think it looks better anyway.

How long do you think it would take with an unsteady hand?

Tumblebug · 06-09-2009, 02:48 AM

haha, a few more minutes?

I only say "steady" since the tip on the sharpie is larger than some of the area covered(ie eyebrows and running lights) and it helps not to move too much. There were a few spots I had to brush off with a exact-o since I slipped in a few areas.

Sharpies you say? I Don't know why I never considered that. He looks awesome. I may have to pick some up on the way home tonight, I just have never been good at colouring within the lines.
