I did this a while ago and finally got around to taking pictures. Here is my version of a repainted AoE Galvatron. I removed the backpack to streamline him a bit more. I tried a new to me technique with painting him this time around to try and give him a more realistic metallic look. I'm pleased with his outcome.
I should have said it, it is a full repaint. I tried to match the original colors, but I went with a little darker gray on the truck mode and then gave it a pearl clear coat to give it a little sparkle, which of course does not show up in my pictures.
Thanks guys. He really needs to be painted up to get the full effect from the mold details they put on him.
Fantastic work! I really like how the alt mode was done darker, it seems to match the actual vehicle very nicely. It seems like the stock alt modes seem lighter in toy form vs the actual vehicle, so it's nice to see a darker figure.
