    Dreadwind is one of the many Transformers I had when I was a child, so this new version brought back many memories, and made the customizing process very enjoyable.
    As you can see in the comparison-pics I didn't go crazy on him, and just highlighted the features this mold already has. The 4 rockets, which left plain in the original, deserved the dark grey recolor, as well as his gun, and some other bodyparts.
    Together with the panellining and a touch of silver here and there it took me just a couple of hours to finish him, and be happy with the result. Welcome back in my collection, Dreadwind^^

    Thanks! I kinda miss the times when Takara had a different approach when it comes to colors and details.

    The extra paint looks great, what color did you use for the gray?

    I am using mostly paint from Revell. This grey is called SM378 Darkgrey, and it's the perfect shade, no need to mix it.
