    Painted and fully assembled my first WFC Siege conehead - Dirge!

    Did a tiny bit of photoshop with his eyes. I think I should have done light piping with eyes. Maybe next version. Cheers!

    I thoroughly dig it. May I ask what are your paints and clear coat of choice?

    Normally I use Tamiya TS or AS spray paint for large areas and touch up with Tamiya acrylics. I think in this case the three major color I used are Blue, Camel Yellow and Gunship Gray.

    Nice work as always...FYI, you may can get some extra business making Earthrise Seeker heads...seems like people are buying two of the Skywarp/Thundercracker 2 pack, switching the heads out, and then returning one of them with 2 "screaming" heads. Instead, they can just get one from you.
    carry on...
