http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/tutorials-how-tos/1002096-dechroming-generations-jetfire-101-a.html#post11603898 Thanks so much for your work there as well as sharing it with us!
Hey there Cheetimus! I bought your custom Strafe from Botcon today, I asked how you do your customs and you told me to message you. I'd really like to learn how to customize, any pointers you could give me would be greatly appreciated. :D
I was wondering if you would be cool talking about customizing over a messenger perhaps? I feel it could help me out more than simply just following tutorials, you know, being able to talk to someone who repaints figures directly?
Ah, I see! I try my hand at both Airbrushing and hand painting...but unfortunately, I haven't come out with some very good results, and being finicky like I am, I tend to start over until I get it right. I use Vallejo Premium Acrylics, but I'm not sure if they're working out. I tried them out awhile back and I got a surprisingly hard coat, that was awesome, but since then, I can't seem to replicate that hard coat that stands up to scratches, so I'm trying to find out as much as I can to see if I'm doing anything wrong.
I've seen the work you do,and it is just incredible. So I apologize if this is bothersome to ask, but what sort of painting method do you use? Airbrush or hand paint
I have a few paint projects that I never finished. They're at least 3 years old. Most of them have been primed. I'm wondering if you'd be willing to take them off my hands. I'll be moving in a few months and am just clearing up space. I won't ask for much. In fact, I'm willing to take a loss on the figures (maybe even a trade). I just want to get rid of them. Would you be interested? Here are some of the molds in question. If you're interested, I'll snap some photos later. HFTD Hubcap HFTD Terradive DOTM Skyhammer RTS Jazz Armada/Cybertron "Bendy" Prime
Cool.That's what I was thinking after looking at your pics of him.I could see where there was some silver over spray on those areas.Thanks.
Hey,Cheets! I tried to PM you but it says your data storage is too full. I have some questions concerning the Vector Prime toy. I have most of him apart except for the thighs and his upper arms. I can't quite get these pieces apart and I'm afraid I will break something if I continue. How did you work around this for repaint?
thank you for setting me straight sir.it is much appreciated.what did you think of the thunderclash idea for orion pax?
i understand and apologize.i have linked up to your pages for pretender starscream,and g2 straxus.i will do better in the future when it comes to these especially in regards to figures that have i have been clearly inspired by someone else.i have nothing but the most respect for your work.too many times i have logged on and seen nothing but a sea of devastators and mp primes.your work is refreshing and reminds of the customizers who first inspired me to get this hobby;tfmaster,jin_saotome,and many others.
there is no need to be rude.i was impressed with your work.that was the reason for copying some of your ideas.but you are not the only one to come up with ideas for customs.great minds think alike and all that,in this field more than one person can and will come up with the same idea.i apologize for the way i did things last night.i was just overexcited to be posting some stuff after a long hiatus.by the way great job with your recent string of customs,top notch work.i saw you came up with machine wars optimus from orion pax;it is a fantastic homage.you know you could actually knock out thunderclash from the mold as well.like i said i am truly sorry
Hey man, do you have any photo galleries of your Alt customs? I'd love to see some. Feel free to post them in Radicons. I couldn't care less if it's your older work or not! :)
Hey, I'm not sure if you saw this or not, but I've got a good friend of mine working on this: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/creative-general-discussion/313588-alternators-inferno-teaser-photos-arrived.html I'll be adding a head myself once I get it back :)
