I'm thinking of even doing a Jetfire/Skyfire Tetrajet because even HE had a Cybertronian form at one time!!!  |

However, it would be best to use the Voyager-class mold for the purpose, because otherwise you would have a Seeker that made Megs look shrimpy. Although I guess the Supreme-class one could hold G1 Megatron in gun mode...
Can I please get a name change? I'm known almost everywhere else as ZeldaTheSwordsman.

I love how each has something unique to it, like this one glows in the dark!
Great work  |

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! | appreciate it. and yeah I always experiment with paint. theres one figure I have that looks like a concubine hehehe. |

I wanted to implement something special for Acidstorm's color, and this just worked out perfectly for him...was very pleased with the result....maybe drybrush some actual brown battery acid on the next one! ha ha  |
