    Oh yeah. Hehehe. Actually, I think it may have been a tad too yellow/goldish? Hmm..Should have mixed it with a little bit more orange for the more subtle look. Ok ok. I guess it's a love'em or hate'em take no prisoners for this colour. Heheh.

    Hahah..How come the strong interest in the Macross mold? Will post some pics of it later on I guess. Both pieces are for friends of mine.

    While it's another perfect paint job, and I envy your metallic skills, it's not the right color for bumblebee. Look at this pic of the real deal, it's very different. Your color looks a bit on the green side somehow...

    Regardless, it's a sweet paint job. I would recommend some yellow metallic with a drop of red in it. BB is more orange than most would think.

    Simmer down SQ7 :throw  or we are going to have to get SuperSquad7 to deal with you.

    Sabby, You need to stop making me like the movie line.
    I'm a sucker for Metallic paints & I just can't handle the awesomeness on such a crappy toyline.

    Something is going on, but what. I have no clue,
    I have a few threads in that "testo" thing too. I've also lost all thumbnails on the all threads view.
