I love the matted look to the paint. Don't know if it's the camera or not. Either way, great job. Also, airbrush, spraycan, or brush? |

You proved to me that the colors alone is enough to make it Thrust. Nice job. http://shop.ebay.com/somarriba333/m....&_trksid=p4340 Quote:

In addition, the group shot of all your seekers is quite impressive. I am assuming that Dirge and Thundercracker are customs as well, but of their paint apps are very well done.
What type of paints are you using? They are very clean and have a nice satin finish. |

Great job overall. |

Anyway, I used Tamiya Maroon (TS-11) spray paint, Testors Flat Black, Rouge Red & Flat White. Finished with several coats of Model Masters Lusterless laquer. The dull-coat really faded out the cockpit as well, making it fit the darker look I was going for.
I really wanted to do some kind of wing mod, but am vastly inexperienced at that type of thing, so I went with this option. It really beat all of my expectations to be honest.
And yes, Dirge and Thundercracker are also customs, but Dirge is going to be re-done since I know what I'm doing now.
Thanks for all the positive feedback, guys!  Quit puttin' big fuckin' pics up! - 2005 Staff
