    Here's a minor touch-up I did on MP-07 Starscream. I change/painted all the blue parts for gunmetal/gray/black as an homage to the muted colors of the early Marvel comics. All the red parts were painted a vibrant metallic red to eliminate the mis-matching hues of the original red paint and plastics. Panel lined with 0.3mm pencil.

    Reminds me of the Galaxy force repaint for Cybertron Optimus Prime.

    amazing work man. really nice panel lines, so many go overboard and make them too dark but thats spot on perfect. lighter colors like gray or white with black lines is too strong. damn well done, its one hell of a job.

    Great paintwork. That red turned out really nice and I'm surprised how well the black looks on him.

    Thanks for the feedback! I learned the hard way about subtle panel lines on light colors on my old Yamato 1/48 Valkyries.

    The nosecone and tail fins are actually gunmetal, hard to tell because of the picture lighting.

    Looks great. Though to be honest.. With the dark backgrounds, he now reminds me of the little girl from "Schindler's List".
