This was the Tetrajet version of Acidstorm I did based on the Cybertron Starscream Supreme figure, 50% scratch-built. The first thing I did was replace the original led for the eyes with a red one and a smaller battery. I then went with a black Krylon fusion base paint then misted over it with a flourescent green acrylic spraypaint. It stayed dark enough for normal lighting, but heavy enough to glow pretty bright under blacklight. After everything was painted and drybrushed, I lightly misted the robot mode with a glow-in-the-dark acrylic spraypaint that still allowed him to glow a little even without the blacklight. I'm now taking commissions on these guys.  |

So awesome! Because I love glow in the dark a lot... heh. The color work very well, in the dead of space type green... much better than piercing neon.
Great job! | |

I didn't know what to expect when I started applying the green on the black, but I did know I wanted a different feel; a darker, more ominous-looking Acidstorm than what we're accustomed to seeing.
The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Acidstorm would be his ability to create a flourescent, glowing, toxic chemical that would eat through anything...(except Chip's wheelchair  ) I wanted to implement that effect either through his overall paint apps or his drybrushing detail, or even both. | |

I got sidetracked with the usual stuff...girls, video games, cars, etc.....  | |
