    03/05 Update: Some paint, clear coat before spots

    Right, got all the sculpting done on this guy, painted him (by hand... so its a little thick and rubbing off on shoulder joints..can't sand down because the unit is inside its own jacket thing that lets it slide in and out) then put a couple coats of clear coat. He looks more pale yellow in person... pictures make him look greenish. Once the flat clear coat dries, will put on spots and post the completed thread. His robot mode paintjob is Cheetor inspired, in that he's going to be yellow/brown spots and metalic blue for some robot parts.

    Thanks to everyone who's been watching and commenting!

    That's really coming along nicely mate. I'm impressed. It's not easy mixing bio and mecha secondhand but you are setting the standard.
