Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread
Hi Dak,
Thanks for starting this amazing fourm. Your customs and well..you...are legendary.
1) How do I make (sculpt) an alternator head (materials, paint..etc) (i am looking at making Bumblebee)
2) or is there any place/person that makes these? (but it is way better to make in oneself)
Thank you.

Sculpt-bot over at TFW does custom head castings if you want to go the "premade" route.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread
Is there a good (read: easy) way to add chrome to a Transformer? Or at least a chrome look?

it's hard to get the full vaccume chrome look, but you could try a few options.
a) Use a Chrome paint. Shiny, but not mirror like.
b) Use Aluminum type Duct Tape.
c) adhesive Silver Leaf
d) chrome type Vynal.

liquid paper should be able to be scraped off, unless it's really on there. Try using the Alcohol method used to remove paint, or paint thinner. be cautious cause you don't want it to eat at your plastic.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread
Anyone have any easy way to line or to highlight panels on TF's, such as Animated Deluxe Bumblee or Movie Blackout, to make them stand out more?
I really want to do this on my Animated Bumblebee, so help is appreciated.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread
take a thin paint (games workshop is great right out of the package), paint over the cracks you want to be lined, and right away before it has a chance to dry, use paper towel and wipe the surface clean of paint, leaving the paint in the cracks. always wipe across the line and not with the line, as going with the line could remove your paint from the crack.
that is one way to do it.
