    Question, what does the FROSTED ULTRA DETAIL look like?

    Also, did you get the 2nd sample of the 1.5 (knuckles) working?

    I work with Solidworks where I work, and I love how you used the Cad. I have wanted to get into molding some parts. I know the CAD but know nothing of molding plastics at home. I would love to recreate Some of the G1 (Macross) Jetfire parts. Love the hands keep up the great work.

    whats the difference between strong and flexible vs. strong and flexible polished? how is the paint affected by these 2 finishes....I would like to paint the hands the silver metallic color....would the white work better or the black strong and flexible?...

    Thank you for the kind words, sir :) 

    Unfortunately no...

    Strong Flexible will work for all my hand designs. I would recommend just getting them in white, and painting over in a base black before your silver drybrushing, as it will be more consistent than having Shapeways dye it for you. WSF-Polished tends to make the details washed out as the grinding process removes the top layer of powder. It's better for shapes with large smooth surfaces.

    I love these set (both knuckle dusters and ordinary). Some great attention to detail.

    I'd love to get a set for my Striker/Jetwing Prime but have no idea how to prep and paint before adding them. Do you (or anyone on the forum) do the hands painted? I'd love to add these to my Prime.

    Hi Scry,

    If you are referring to the deluxe Que figure, then unfortunately not. His hands are too small to be made posable. Only leader scaled hands or large voyager hands can be reliably made.
