    Hey Guys.

    As a modeller(just an amature ;) ) I like give my stuff my own spin, from modelkits to figures i collect.
    In case of my Transformers, most of the time, their faces. To me they are the most important part of their character. So i paint their vizors/eyes a more vibrant metallic color topped with a gloss coat. Their face, a non metallic colour with a semi-gloss coat. It gives a bigger contrast between the face and eyes, they pop more.
    Let me know what you think of them and if you have questions, feel free to ask...

    Greetings, Sebastiaan.

    Looks really nice!

    Looks pretty good on the Superion, Makes the Roadking face look 100x livelier, and Devestaor really makes the face pop!

    Keep up the good work.

    Plenty Transformers toys could use your magic on their faces.

    Titans Return Galvatron
    Titans Return Megatron
    The G1 Seekers
    The original CHUG Starscream.
    Generations Scoop
    G1 Ultra Magnus in certain regions.

    Excellent work, mate!!

    That figure needs a lot more than a painted face...

    Well, Shapeways at least gives you a proper helmet to replace the mask.

    These are so smooth. They look like factory paint. Really nice work.
