    Thanks mate ! I used a plastic paint brush handle, plastic pens. Bendy wire, scrap parts from old figures and finshed it off with a dark Chrome paint job with some rust and weathering. its still a WIP

    yeah Frenzy the stencils worked very well indeed ! I used your youtube tutorial to help with the application and found them very easy to apply! I would recommend them to anyone who wants that movie accurate look and they are worth every penny! I shall be ordering another set when I do my fixed truck mode leader prime project! all hail frenzy!

    Should I paint his eyes or not ? He will be more of a display piece so I think that would work better its just I put a blue led in his head so it seams a shame.. let me know what u think guys !

    Painting the eyes sounds like a great idea.

    Maybe one of the heads could have the faceplate up and other one would have it off...
