Sideswipe...Chromed. It's an amaZing mold. Chrome's been protected with my kitchen wax cleaner. And then clearcoated. Super protection. Doesn't even affect the chrome in anyway. Chrome used was Alclad II. Good stuff.
Cool work ! but, aren't you gonna add the yellow electrical wiring as seen in this CGi art ? http://i662.photobucket.com/albums/uu347/Samus_Ng_Spare/Sideswipe1jpg.jpg
The moment I saw ROTF Sideswipe at the store, I immediately thought to myself, "I can't wait to see what Sabrina does with this!" This came out beautiful!!! Wow!
Edit. I read your first post. What clear coat did you use on top of the wax? Did you spray the wax with an airbrush?
I gotta check. I used the same wax cleaner as I used for my TFTM Optimus Prime. I remember posting pictures of it on the boards but not sure where. It's meant for parquet flooring.
I used a water based clear coat. For chrome paints, anything lacquer based may eat up the chrome. Turning chrome into greyish silver.
Was it tamiya clear that you used or does that dull the chrome as well? You are full of all sorts of neat ideas arentcha? Who would have thought to use kitchen wax on a tf eh? Let us know what brand that stuff is, or even better yet post a pic.
