    Hello there,

    i hope, someone could help me with my decision on which Spray-Colour to use for a G1 Unicron.

    What i am talking about is the Orange, i intend to buy some of Tamiya Acrylic Spray. Beacause its easy to get here in Germany and it´s price isnt that high. But there is a selection to do about 4 or 5 Orange Colours.... i do not want any Gloss or Metallic for it SO:


    Which Orange would you Use for G1 Unigron Base Colour TAMIYA*::*Produkte*::*Farben*::*Acryl Spray TS ???

    i hope someone could help...

    Greetings from Germany

    I coated the horns and shoulders in fabric vinyl spray so the spray paints would not have a tacky feeling.
    Used Krylon fusion paints for most of him, and on most of them I used Tamiya gunmetal for the legs and tamiya brush paint acrylics for the details. The one pictured used fusion gray on the legs with a lighter gray dry brushing.

    I have another method that works especially on the horns....
    Completely coat them in superglue... I know it's a lot, but it does work :D
