    At first:

    This is impressed by this awesome work of sentinelsupreme:

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/315547-wfc-ultra-magnus-v2.html

    I used Spray-Coloured which I painted per hand on this guy.

    Far away from good, cause after I finished him with clear coat the coloures got translucent, don't know why, waited more than 24 hours with panting the clearcoat.

    but for me the guy is good enough. i hope you like it too, if not: please don't be to hard with me, my skills aren't good enough for clean paintjobs....

    First off, the color scheme and the war hammer are absolutely awesome! I really like the concept here.

    I think if you took a little more time then you could get the paint work to be cleaner. When I work on a custom (which isn't very often, admittedly) the biggest issue I have is wanting to see the end product so badly that I sometimes rush things. This leads to mistakes and somewhat sloppy work. Try a little patience and you'll take your customs to the next step! You've already got the vision, just take your time to execute it well! :thumb

    very nice especially the war hammer.
    white paint tends to dilute if sprayed with clear or candy/sparkling colours.
    maybe have to let it cure under the hot sun for a couple of days before applying clear coat?

    yeah, i think about it, but this guy is really hard to paint, so i dont know if i could clean him up correctly.....

    and yes, i'm a very fast painter, cause i never want to wait for a cool custom ;) 

    mostly it works for me, but with this method i'll never get a similar quality like the masters here: encline, F_R, autobotx23, etc... pp.

    so i'll think about it.

    niow i must see how i could built the axe-thing of megatron....
