Here is what I am calling "G1 Toy accurate" Classics thundercracker.

 

 

 

Let me know what you guys think.

 

enjoy.

the waist and crotch should be silver. Too much blue to me in the midsection.

I didn't want it to be exactly like G1. But I think I know what you mean about too much blue.

But then again so was G1 toy thundercracker. I might go back and paint the arms

up to the elbows black, and like you said the waist silver.

I want one. Black arms might look pretty cool.

Actually you are Incorrect. I am mostly a testors paint/airbrush guy, and lately I have been

trying the Krylon fusion. To be honest I like it but it does not work as good as I thought.

The only hand painted parts were the nose (friggin rubber crap), the head and the

silver waist. The rest was taped off and sprayed. I am going to stick with my airbrush

from now on though, IMHO it gives you alittle more control over where and how much

paint is applied. Also could look that way, because I tried sanding some of the

old red paint off, and the scratch lines as well as some of the dust residue might have

bonded with the paint. Though I admit definatly not my best work.

jet mode is cool

nice

wow! nice work.
