    VIDEO REVIEW HERE - Compared to non-painted figure

    This is a commissioned custom for a repeat customer. This time it's AOE Galvatron. I painted him with several different metal paint colors over flat black enamel. Gold and blue details were done with both acryl and enamel paints. He was then given a panel line wash and finally sealed.

    Thanks for looking!

    I've been holding off on buying Galvatron for this very reason. Yours looks beautiful. When hasbro releases one like this, it shall be mine. Otherwise, I'll keep waiting.

    How much would it cost for you to make another one for someone else? I want to check how much more this costs than the base figure, because my monetary resources are very limited (as in, it'll take a week of incredibly hard work and no free time to raise enough money to buy the basic figure, so how many more weeks would i have to spend in order to be able to afford this?)

    Meticulous work like this shows just what the difference between a minimal and a detailed paint job can make. I'm sure more people would want this figure if Hasbro's or Takara's looked more like this.

    Brilliant job :)

    Very nice. Did you swap the wheels on the back of the legs too?

    Must be the lighting then. I could swear the I can see the wheels on the inside part of the legs and the wheel fenders on the outside part of the legs. The wheels on mine face the outwards while the fenders are inside.

    Oh yes, I turned the wheel covers out. I thought what you were asking me was if I flipped the wheels over so that the rims were facing against the legs. Sorry man, I gotcha now ;)

    Yeah. I thought maybe I skipped a transformation step or something. Looks better that way.
