    Got an animated jazz but he came so yellowed he looked like he was made yellow. Luckily he was in car mode when he was yellowing so I only had to redo the car bits. I just grabbed a nice shade of grey and started working. Looking decent now, a lot like the highway jazz repaint. Tiny bit on tyres and back window which I need to clean, rest was ok. Here he is! 14D49F6C-C746-42FA-9467-EE62CA871C5F.jpeg D1BBD2A7-7093-4A1D-AFFC-D61F6742FC0D.jpeg 7ABF48A0-AA8D-429E-BC57-DF409AE165BC.jpeg 8D8B7783-FFFC-4262-9816-3A3C1083EC62.jpeg 3B2ADA9D-29BA-40D7-9BC7-CDB0D1A7D09F.jpeg 97E02CF3-5F5C-46DC-BB7E-D6FC4AE20132.jpeg 8A611A1F-AA81-475D-B6D8-2089E707D12D.jpeg 14D49F6C-C746-42FA-9467-EE62CA871C5F.jpeg

    That's a nice shade! Matches well with the headlights

    Lovely paintwork. Love the grey. I’d do the bot bits black…perhaps a nice blue.

    You could turn it into a movie Jazz repaint, you could even add a feature that allows him to be torn in half

    This looks pretty clean. Is it meant to evoke his colors from the '07 movie?

    Kudos for clean paint. I don't see any brush marks. Curious to the process. Did you dunk him in any thinner at first to take the paint off? Do any airbrushing or spray paint?
