    You may want to contact the original artist and ask him.

    Hey man, that artist is full time professional and I believe if you want to achieve that look (especially for your first custom), you will need to practice, practice, practice on toys or trash figures first. LOTS of practice with dry brushing different colors on top of each other to produce depth and detail and color tone.

    Contact him or Jin Saotome (he has good tutorials as well). You tube is helpful for how to paint transformers and so is just google-ling it.
