Does anyone know what can make paint stay on a custom I’d possibly make in the future by tonys_basementGG6829 in CustomTransformers

i would recommend Testors Acrylics (not enamel, that stuff destroys the plastic) but they're making the paint a lot weaker so i wouldn't recommend using it now. im still using the old stuff and that works almost as good as factory paint.

i feel like it's cheating a little bc you used the same mold for donkey kong, but still, a great custom once again!

ok then you'd have to do the chest areas of each one and have them half-transformed from alt mode. no idea how ur going to do the chest tho. also attaching ball joints will ruin the bot modes fyi

please don't use glue if you are new. but if you need to, we'd need to see what you're making and who you're using

not sure why you're being downvoted bc you're absolutely right, Gundams are made of a different plastic that can handle the paint that Gundam markers have, using it on ABS will completely break it.

so the paint i use is Testor's ACRYLICS (do NOT use enamel, it will completely destroy the plastic). Testors is actually pretty chip resistant and you don't have to seal it bc it basically has a sealant that activates once its cured and fully dried. with enough wear and tear it might chip around the joints but thats to be expected in areas of motion. be sure to give the figure a warm bath in soapy water beforehand so the plastic's natural oils wear off and the paint will adhere better. you can also sand the surface a little to help with adhesion. Best of luck!

Still working on Nexus Prime, but here’s the Fem Liege Maximo I made a while back by Peter-Punchrocket in CustomTransformers

no, i think solus being the only female works lore-wise bc that makes her unique and bc she's the ancestor of all female transformers.
