    I need help deciding on adding silver damage or not? I'll check back on here in 20 hours and depending on how many people reply I'll make my decision. Thank you to whoever throws in their opinion.

    I prefer the cleaner look, particularly for the jet, but maybe some light scratching on the legs and weathering on the nosecone? And I do like what's left over on the black and grey bits.

    Tried to match the spray paint, it now has a slight purple wash along the fake cockpit, shoulders and thighs.

    Edit: moved from original post

    I would like substance and genuine opinions. I appreciate @Maximus Danz and @Bumblebee2000's comments. I guess I could make a poll for folks who don't feel like formulating much and just want to click "yes" or "no".

    Cool. Looks like I'm keeping it clean. Thank you guys!

    It makes sense to keep him clean. Since he's just a lowly, expendable seeker he hasn't been through the same as the Ace Seekers. Poll closed.

    I might add just a touch of damage to match his forearms.

    I thought about doing the lighter purple/indigo seeker on the left, and doing a simple clean up on the third Thundercracker to match seeker on the right. The choice of blue for Siege Thundercracker is a little too bright for me, I'm hoping Earthrise has a deeper blue.

    So that'd just be SIEGE Ion Storm, I guess.

    Isn't Ion Storm all blue? I'm not planning on painting the gray parts blue-- just cleaning the "damage" so he matches the other rookie.

    Here's Ion

    Uh, OK. Ion Storm is missing the silver, right.
