    After you do your customs do you transform the figures and if so does the paint chip or not? or do you keep in bot mode so as to not damage the repaint job?

    FYI that was me on the live chat who helped you transform Siege Hound (Batfan)

    Hey! Thanks again for helping me with that Hound.
    It does chip some times if I don't sand it down enough before painting. Depending on how many coats of paint I put it will make the tolerances a lot tighter. It will also chip if I do't paint it properly and let it fully cure.

    Very nicely done my dude! I was recently watching your customisation streams and tips on YouTube recently and I gotta say it really cleared some misconceptions I’ve had with the painting process, especially with weathering figures since you never really take them apart yet you still somehow managed to make it look more complete regardless, I’m pretty much blown away by how much you can get away with weathering your figures without taking apart at all, and how you’ve reached hard to get places in each figure I may never know?

    I have a question regarding these Dinobot customs though, since you did a full repaint of the entire figure, did you have to take some things apart in order get easier access to some hard to reach areas?

    whAt iS ThIS SOrCeRY!?
