    I posted up on this earlier this week but I organized it and now have finished it for this thread. I hope no one minds.

    I used a stock photo of what he looked like before I primed him.

    After I took him all apart and then taped off what I needed to, I primed it all and then re-assembled him.

    After the various steps of painting layers and detailing, I have finished today. I will let it dry for awhile and then seal it.

    I still have to add on his other 4 flaps after they are through drying.

    Oh that's nothing. I had taped it off so it wouldn't get painted by accident. I am thinking about replacing them with something similar to what frenzy rumble did to his. Thanks!

    Here's a legends class starscream I did along with this one.

    I had more fun doing the voyager class though. I already re-worked some parts on my Classics Inferno, classics prowl, and am re-working some parts on my classics Jetfire. This is great stuff!

    I was wondering if anyone can clue me in on how to paint the rubbery/soft plastic nose from Starscream's jet mode?? I was told not to paint it because it would be forever tacky. Then I see Frenzy Rumble's and his has been painted?

    I finished more of Voyager Starscream and am very close to completion now. I added a bit more waste detail and plugged his 'painted' head back in so he could have some eyes. I also finished sealing his flaps and missiles and will be sealing the main figure to tomorrow. Any suggestions on where I can get some workable alternative hands??

    - Here's some armor I painted up and sealed for classics Jetfire as well.

    Thanks, I would be interested in seeing your Starscream, and I noticed your next custom will be ROTF Nemesis Prime - That's my favorite character.
