Hey buddy, where'd you get the Green Acrylic Spray Paint? I'm doing an acidstorm myself. Thanks.

No problem, it's Rustoleum's Flourescent neon-green from Home Depot. Depending what shade you're going for, be VERY selective about your basecoat, as I found this green is extremely sensitive to the basecoat you use...experiment with it first...

I'm looking for a dark green effect like you have achieved here with Acidstorm. I'm customizing a MP SS to look like a Air-to-Surface bomber with green (GLOW!) camo. How would I achieve that? Thanks a lot.

I keep the can about 6-8 inches away from the surface and start spraying away from the figure and quickly go back and forth over the high spots first. Don't point the tip directly at the figure, but spray it at an angle. If you spray it directly it will go on too thick. You just want a light shade of green to go on it, and you don't want to hold the can too far back either because it applies more like a powder instead of paint, and it will wipe off and not stick.

You can take a plastic bottle or any old object and experiment on it first till you perfect it, because you definitely don't want to experiment on the toy and have to clean a mistake off of the toy. I did that before and did a lot of cursing too! ha ha!

Love your Seekers...they look great. It's curious why Hasbro never gave us a figure like this...

This was really well thought out. I love the tetrajets. Its amazing how much that starscream mold gets used for it too. But man, you took it and really ran with the details. Great job.

Thanks man. It's hard to say why they never made a toy for this, probably because it's tough making a robot out of a triangular alt mode...but then again, Dewbot came from a rectangular alt-mode! The real beauty of it all is, even after I did all the extensive modding, there was only one extra step added to the transformation of the original toy.
