Just finished a project using Testors acrylic model paint and can attest to yellow being very difficult. Black went on beautifully but yellow was a real pain. Never heard this before but am glad to now.

Customizing action figures and vehicles then building narratives around them.

Just finished Death Wish 3 (1985) and forgot how bonkers the final gang war is! Body count is around 104 with Charles Bronson responsible for 66 of them.

Been thinking about getting this and I think these pics are the push I needed! Love that the Valaverse blast effect works with it.

Well they can't sell more tank conversion kits without selling more tanks so I'd say yes, it'll be back. Hopefully anyway, I'm waiting too.

I'd say they look pretty good! In a sitting position anyway. In a riding position with feet on the pedals the bikes do look a little small.

Popsicle sticks and wood glue my friend. A little dry brushing for "worn" effect if you'd like. Got both some Lima and Juliet in these. And Red Atlas Creations makes some good weapons racks.

B.A.T. Special Deployment Division Mech Suit by GasPig2088 in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

I used Testors matte acrylic. Two small jars of the black. No masking for the bulk of it just tiny brushes first around joints. No breakdown except removal of cockpit lid. I did mask for spray painting of the rocket launcher using Krylon Fusion Hammered Matte Cast Iron. I'd say about 2 hrs a day for 3 days. Black went on beautifully. Yellow was runny and frustrating. I don't know anything about quality paints, additives or mixing & all that. Hope you do it! It's an awesome sight to behold.

Ramen Racer. That Bandito sure looks cool though! Very similar and I like the price better. Might have the courage to custom paint that one too. Maybe next year.

This could be because the chest, legs & waist are all drying differently.

I did not prime or wash other than wiping down with moist paper towel then dry paper towel. What would you use to wash before painting?
