Oh Wheeljack, such an un-painted mess, but lots of potential. I added a bunch of black, some gunmetal, and some silver, then used a black and gray Graphix marker for the panel lines. Also gave him a gun from a gundam (Red Warrior 1/144 weapon with a new handle) Vehicle mode didn't need much, I decided I liked the black spoiler so I added some black to make it look more intentional and clear red over silver for the tail lights
This is a HELL of an improvement upon a very bland figure. This improves his looks to me 1000%. Fantastic work!
Very nice work and a big improvement. This would be a decent toy if it wasn't for all that visibly hollow space in the legs. That's the kind of thing I expect to see in a KO.
I lightly sanded the arms, then brushed on 3 thin coats of Tamiya Black. I ended up waiting a couple weeks before brushing on some Pledge, then let it sit another week before putting him back together. I've transformed him a few times and haven't had any rubbing issues yet
Wow. It's the part up against the forearm panels and the fists that came out so clean. How did you not get any on there? lol
Ohh! For that part I had initially made a bit of a mess, but I used a sharp exacto blade to lightly scrape away the excess paint. I accidentally scraped away too much in a couple spots and went back to touch up with a fine brush.
