:tflaugh O.K. So I got inspired to do a transformers repaint. It's my first so be gentle with the feedback.

Nice job. Movie Ultra Magnus, interesting. The silver is pretty shinny, maybe some white would tone it down. You should be proud.

i would have started with a less expensive TF...

 

I don't like the paint app... I have "battle damage" on TFs... if you weren't going for battle damage, sorry :\

Yeah, I should have said I was going for a worn/battle damaged look. I still have a little touch up to do and I have to hit him with a satin clearcoat to dull the shiny-ness a little.

Thats a really awesome job for your first try! This is one of the better movie voyager magnus repaints i have seen. I like the worn paint look, and everything else just fits together lovely.

hmm, shouldn't the sleeper sections that fold to make his shoulders be blue as well? Fist thought was the worn look might be a little overdone, but actually adding a bit more grime to the sleeper and the red on his chest may tie it all together better.

 

Just a couple observations. Overall its a very nice first bash.

You did do well with that being your first. Keep practicing and you'll be a pro in no time. Wish my first looked that good. ;)

yeah, it's a great first go. my first repaint was a total embarrassment on all fronts. :)

 

edit: spelling

i think it was a good first try, your transition from silver to blue is really good.

 

I will assume that that silver is difficult

 

 

keep it up

cough cough movie um cough cough

 

nice job for a first time. you'll learn how to use the paint over time. keep it up. :thumb
