Re: animated bumblebee more show accurate
vinyl wrap is basically what it sounds like.wrapping something in vinyl.think of vehicle wraps like commercial vehicles,only on a smaller scale.the best part about vinyl is that if you want to change the design later on,all you need is a heat gun and unlike paint,no sanding is needed to change/remove designs.

Re: animated bumblebee more show accurate
Just a thought, but you should have used a darker automotive window tint on the windows so they would continue to be somewhat transparent.

i considered tint but dont like how its so crispy and doesnt like to conform to curves too well.that and i dont really like how you could see bumblebees bot mode scrunched up inside.

I'm going to deffinately have to do something about that front bumper area yellow-spot-that-should-be-black when or if I get one. (I'm not sure what it's called)
I'm surprised you hven't added any other mods in 'bot mode like the yellow hands or the unpainted arm stripes.
