Quickie Touchups - TFPrime Hot Shot

Very minor do.

Was never a big fan of the mold and I occasionally find Hot Shot annoying, but after watching some reviews, I figured he was worth a shot... and turns out he's not too bad, really.

Especially after the neck mod and some minor paint touch-ups given the generally... lacking... paint apps recent lines have been getting... he looks pretty decent now.

All done with markers out of sheer laziness
- silver rims with blue highlights [or is that... blue rims with... silver highlights?...]
- black spoiler
- silver insignia on the back
- yellow to the signal lights
- black undercarriage details and silver to the exhaust pipes
- some grey detailing to the robot chest
- silver highlights to the robot torso
- blue to the hip guards
- silver to the hosepipe detailing on his shoulder guards....
- silver trim to the ring on the back of his hands [ZETMAN~... errrr...]
- silver highlights to the guns
- high gloss topcoat over everything for that does of t3h sh1n3yz...

... typing that almost took as long as touching up his paint. /facepalm

One wishes Hasbro would do it so we wouldn't have to... but at least the flame detailing ain't bad.
