    Updated photos in post #47


    I made a removable mask for Prime, added some silver accents to the chest, removed the spikes from the stomach area and added Gundam 1/100 articulated hands.

    This is how it should be released! I'm also curious on how you did the mask.

    Thank you everyone. For those that asked, I used a thin rigid sheet of plastic (from the cover of a small notebook) first painted it silver, then cut out a shape similar to a kite. The piece slides into the grooves of the curent faceplate making it snug but removeable.

    So simple, and yet so effective. I'm going to have to see if I have any thin rigid plastic laying around. Thanks.

    Wow I'm gonna have to do this when I purchase him. That just looks great!! I don't have the best knowledge of paints so I must ask, what paint did you use? I want it to match with the rest of the silver (just like what you did)
