    I've been off and on these days with work and my kids taking most of my time. Here's a custom that I just recently finished up for a customer. I have 3 of these guys lined up, the 2nd and 3rd should hopefully be done within the next month. There are tons of pictures but I'm too lazy to go through and resize them. Take a peek at my photo albums in my Concepts in Chrome facebook page to view all of my customs. Thanks for looking!

    I think a lot of Star Wars collectors that were disappointed that all the new Captain Phasma figures aren't shiny would be very interested in your methods!

    so you send your stuff out to be vacuum metal coated and then paint in translucent paints? looks awesome. i always wanted chrome thighs and crotch plate on mp-10 for a "toy accurate" version....i'd paint the eyes yellow of course too. haha

    May I ask what is your process for chroming the plastic parts?

    Would it be silly to consider RE- gold/chrome plating the entire team of FT Dibots so all the golds match?

    Don't touch, you'll leave fingerprints.

    I however am a sucker for chrome on robots, I love it.
