    New here (and new to collecting Transformers in general). I hope I'm posting in the correct sub-forum.

    I'm looking for stickers/decals to make Deluxe TFP (RID) Arcee more show accurate. Toyhax/Reprolabels only have one for her TFP First Edition figure. If not, does anyone know the exact kind of color pink she uses for her highlights? It looks rose gold to me but I'm not sure as I'm new to figure painting/customization as well.

    With how pale her metallic pink is, I'd say looking into nail polish might be a good and cheap place to start. I'd also imagine thinning it with model paint thinner would likely be necessary. I'm assuming you're using a paint brush.

    If you want to use proper model paints, there is a myriad of solutions out there, but for a dead on match, I'd recommend mixing acrylics yourself. Tamiya paints have never let me down. Some disposable pipettes for measuring the paint and a clean bottle cap to mix them in would be all you need.

    Best of luck, and welcome to the boards!

    Thanks for the advice. I'll look into nail polish.
