Upgrades

I was searching the internet for pictures of the new Mustang's paint jobs and colors when I came across the new 2005 Nascar Pace Car. In awe I knew that HAD to be the basis for my Marlboor custom. My original idea was to go with a stock car Marlboro design, either as close as the Diaclone or off a stock car paint skeme I found. But 1, since Wheeljack is not a race car, and there isn't a race that devotes these kinds of cars I decided to go with the pace car. But DAMN if the pace car didn't just fit that a normal person might some day own and drive (have seen Corvette pace cars around on the streets) and it avoids the problem of adding the white. At any rate…

i said i was going to do it and i've started, yesterday when i'd just bought 3 g1/g2 figures off the market for £4 i suddenly remembered it was going to be a week befor ei'd have something new to play with and so i decided to do a repaint, this in turn made me decide to do a new comic but first i'll finish the repaint

Alternator Runabout Donor; Alt smokescreen, shaved down mouth,crown & nose. Removed spoiler & cut out 5 of the 10 spokes to give a 5 mag rim star look. Paint as you can see was a disapointment :tdown . Found the best driver for my Alts, he is from the second generation of Mask I believe Vortech is the name of the line. ...Sorry for the delay, linky http://photobucket.com/albums/c19/hpjornada548/

Bought a white KO Binaltech Hound off of ebay about a month back and wanted to turn him into a tweeked version of Energon Checkpoint. I am using a left over Tracks head, and the visor from Jazz, but need SWAT stickers to bring the whole thing together. Any help on printing stickers would be great, what kind of paper to use, and so forth. Here is what I have so far.

Hi all, in light of the recent release of Armorhide and earlier hardtop, i wanted to repaint them as Motormaster junior and Beachcomber respectively. I've already seen Beachcomber done be someone in Japan, so I know it can be done beautifully. Anyways, I'll have to say that I have close to 0 experience in painting stuff. I try to paint Gundams before but they ended in desaster. That is exactly why I have like 10 Gundam unassembled at this point. I dont' want to butcher them... So I was wondering if someone you repaint masters can give me some pointers as to to following topics. what material do you use to paint guide lines? (Ie, you need to paint the edg…

i found that if you just slice a small bit off the front of the jet's cockpit that you can still transform him right and have him look good in vehicle and robot mode by slicing the small piece in half down the cent of it. theres 2 screws holding the cockpit together. make the first cut just above the bot screw and slice all the way through it slice the piece down the center and glue each half onto the inside of the feet so that they still line up right for the vehicle mode through the cockpit area and the figure still looks good in both modes 2 quick, clean and easy, piece of cake. its a simple mod any person can do with a couple minutes a good cutting knife a…

Well, I had recently purchased a bunch of RM Starscream KO's off ebay, all the blue plastic parts were all red, and the canopy doesn't open, but has a light-up LED, plus the canopy isn't painted... the only thing painted is the two vertical fins. Anyhoo, originally all I did was take one and paint the canopy up with an orange sharpie, which turned out red on the plastic. This weekend I got bored and thought I'd try repainting some of the others into Thundercraker & Skywarp... well, I used a blue, black, & silver sharpies and it turned out a very deep dark blue. Ok... so I break out the next one to repaint into Skywarp, try applying a purple sharpie to the red p…

I found TFM's altered RP the other day and now I really want to add some articulation to mine in the legs and arms, but without hurting the transformation. TFM used Gundam legs, I have a couple different Energon bots that I was going to try to use(hotshot, prowl,demolisher, sharkticon), but I'm not completely sure how to go about this. Any help is appreciated. I have a general idea, but need any help I can get. Thanks ahead. stprime
