This is beautiful. Good job taking the time to find a close color match! I thought about it, but was too lazy and just went black.
I'll bump this in the main forum as well, but I believe mine had the lightest backgrounds of the ones done in this style. Here you go: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/988278-drift.html
Thanks. and it's an interesting thing about the Imax film, the coloring can look a bit different than it will on the tv, like shockwave in DOTM looked gunmetal on IMAX, but when i got the blue ray, he had purple all scratched up and darkened looking almost gunmetal. I think it's just a matter of being able to spot it. And you are right, it is a silly thing to fight over I dont think anyone said mine is the only accurate one, but just said that it is accurate. As per the finding pictures of drift in blue or black, i've not seen as many in black like i have in blue. the pic i put with bee, if it was lightened, then bee would show much less shadowing than he does since he's black, it is the perfect shot to show the contrast used in the picture, i'm telling u it's all about how the light hit's the reflection lol Thanks, and i'll be sure to check it out! like Unicron9 said, black doesnt look bad on drift. Regardless of what color he actually is if anyone asks you just say "i pulled a Bruce Wayne saying 'does it come in black?'" lol
