    I can see a glimpse of the high contrast of the reflections of the foil so the photo's are good enough, thank you :)  It gave me another idea, what if you paint the visor but use a transparent gloss foil on top of it? That way you can still get any color you want. It's only applicable for the visors because those shapes are simple enough to wrap the foil to. I will first try out the Future coat and see what that does, after that I will buy some foils to experiment with if I'm not pleased with the results.

    Thank you very much :)  I use colors from the Vallejo mecha range, here's a pic (the dark steel and old gold are metallic paints and require a 0.4mm nozzle):

    Mass shifting itself is cheating. This is an alternate way, and it works

    Wow, simply amazing. Watched the video for this guy the other day and it's as solid as a rock. If I particularly cared for the Aerialbots I'd be totally getting this guy. It seems that Zeta have finally realized that it's the Sunbow crowd who bring in the money after all by including all the toon accurate bits....smart move. I'm just salivating at the prospect my favourite combiner group, the technobots getting this kind of treatment. Holy fuckballs!?

    FT might surely have been beaten to the market this time. Sure I prefer their individual robots given how toon accurate they are and all but in terms of making a solid and toon accurate combiner that Zeta had done.....I don't see what they could bring to the table that could be a whole lot better than this to make people wait for them, except their name, of course!

    Not sure what a transpareny gloss foil is (like just clear plastic or is it still metallic?) but I'm glad this has given you some ideas. I'd be eager to hear if you find any new techniques.

    Although these are a little janky and have a distinct classics feel, this will be my MP Superion. Can't justify paying the FansToys premium for a combiner. Also who knows how many years it will take FansToys to release their Arielbot team.

    I forgot to preorder Silver Arrow from TCP and they had sold out but Brandon put up a second round of preorders and I locked it in. Not sure when they're arriving but TCP's customer service is always top notch so I try to shop there as much as possible.

    My thoughts exactly, plus I'm not sure I want all that diecast on a combiner and it's not like I'm getting any younger and can wait for them!

    Yeah I thought Slingshot was March and Skydive April. I'll not complain if it's changed again but they need to make their minds up!

    Chromey! I love you for what you do for the TFW community. You're truly a gem and a wonderful human being. But.... you need to layoff the Faaaaaannssstoyss propaganda a pinch... I know you love their products and that's fine. But if you could turn it down a notch I'd put a vote in for your TFW sainthood.
    No offense

    Where were you to tell me to lay off the Zeeeeettttttaaaaaa propaganda when I talked about what I liked about their first two released Aerialbots??? Hmmmm????
    [​IMG]


    What can I say except that I like what I like and I'll continue to express myself as such. Besides I didn't say I wouldn't get Zeta's Silver Arrow as well. I already have their first two Aerialbots. I have no problem double dipping across companies for the same character. Propaganda? Now that's funny.

    Best advice: Add him to the ignore list.
