    Well i decided to paint barricade next after my ironhide. I attempted to dry brush but it didn't work out really well, i think cause i used to many layers:(  Next time i know to use less but it definatly looked better dry brushing for the robot parts. Tell me what you guys think.

    I think you did a pretty good job :)  It halfway tempts me to get back to my Barricade custom, especially now that I have the "interrogator arms" . . . .

    Barricade has really simple colors that makes him easy to paint also:)

    I think he's a really good starting point for people wanting to kitbash. He's easy enough to do things with (like you said), but he's got enough going on that one can get some complexity too :) 

    I've been partswapping with a Barricade and a Premium Barricade. I've added the lights, and I recently drybrushed a Frenzy. He's been something I've had to piddle around with :)

    Hehe, we'll see. I've got a lot of things I've not shown, and I've got a lot more things that are taking priority over my own Barricade project. Movie customs aren't really my "thing", but I've done a couple of things here and there just for the heck of it. I really tend to post things when I've got something I feel I've got something to really contribute. You've actually done more with your painting here than I foresee myself doing with my own Barricade :)

    I hope you're able to get a new camera! In the meantime, learn to push yours. I did a LOT with a 1mp camera when I was first starting to kitbash :) 

    Thanks for the props! :thumb  I hope to see more from you!
