    I had seen these on this site before but never come across them in person until a "pop vinyl" convention came to town recently and these three were on one of the vendors' tables, kind of out of place for the type of convention it was... 20210320_113823_HDR(1).jpg 20210320_113724.jpg
    Paid less than 3 bucks each for em. :rock 

    Gave starscream and arcee to a couple of different pals of mine cuz why not??
    Wanted to do something different with soundwave because i now have around 40 sw's as it is but only a couple of shattered glass sw's...
    Being pretty handy with an airbrush, i looked all over Little Rock for pearl white but found none in the hobby shops. Finally settled on some Tamaiya aerosol pearl white.
    Happy with the color; NOT with the texture...
    Anyhoo...
    After about a dozen or more coats of clear coat, alot of patience (because ive never hand painted ANYTHING this small before) and even more cover ups. I present primed and ready to paint Shattered Glass Soundwave: 20210507_200306_HDR(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200444_HDR(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200503_HDR(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200524_HDR(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200534_HDR(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200600(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200655(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200600(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200705(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200717(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200730(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_200747(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_203137(1)_Signature.jpg 20210507_203153(1)_Signature.jpg
