Hello all. This is a custom that I decided to repaint after feedback from the last time I did him. I mainly went and re did his upper half. I airbrushed everything in Model Masters Chrome sliver and then airbrushed over that in Clear Red. I removed the swivel parts from his gun and then joined the 2 remaining parts together with epoxy and the gave it a black base coat and dry brushed it it Aluminum. It was highlighted in spots with Florescent Red/Orange. For added detail I painted around the windows in chrome silver. Unfortunately when it got clear coated, it dulled the chrome. The Windshield was also removed and repainted in light blue. You can see from the old pic I put up, what I changed. C&C Welcome and wanted. He'll be going up on ebay very soon.

Thanks for looking.

interesting that the clear red didn't give it a lot of depth.. Hmmm.. Either way, looks pretty cool. I dig it.

I like the tinfoil background it works

Not tin foil. It's a black trash bag. It does look like foil from the oics though.

one thing you should do is go over the lines with chrome again. and use some brush on gloss coat on them.

oh and use some red to clean up the area around the windshield there is some silver spill over there!

Otherwise I really like this

This is actually looking good. But you may want to try to do a wash to bring out the details of this OP. :) Still a good job and I like it.
