Got a custom cast head from Valkfan, and Red Krylon Fusioned over all the outside parts. I also painted the grill silver, engine intake(?) black, and even though I forgot to take a picture of it, chrome silver for the side rearview mirrors!! I also Black Krylon Fusioned all the grey parts (because I couldn't afford a new Bumblebee when I started to paint the red). I put some Creative Paperclay sculpting compound in the spoiler holes, and I'll be doing the same thing to BB when I paint him, too.

 

Thanks again, VF!!

 

 

 

Looks great! I love that you painted the internal feet sections black

He sure looks good! :thumb

How about his 'thighs' in black?

I can definitely appreciate the work and craftmanship that went into the head mold.

 

That said, I have to say it looks awkward. The paintwork overall is sweet, though.

much nicer.

Looks real good. :thumb

I'm hoping to do the same with my Cliffjumper, that repainted Bumblebee head just doesn't cut it.

This is great. The only thing I might consider is doing the seatbacks in black. But this is nice. Especially good stuff with the now-black arms. Great work.

I was thinking about the seats, too. I'm getting a more G1-esque Bumblebee head from someone, and as soon as I can find some Yellow Krylon Fusion, I'm gonna fix him. I'm gonna do the black "kneepads" on him, and if I like it enough, I'll go back to CJ.

 

 

Oh, and thanks for all the kind words.

Lovely Jubbly!

Very cool!!! :thumb
