Bought this off ebay and it was grey with black trim, has been a pain in the arse to paint but I didnt want to take it apart too much. Let me know what you think so far, obviously it's not finished

I have only painted the red and some of the black trim

LOL the flash makes it look SUPER SHINY but I'm sure it looks like the predator in terms of color. Watch out about just painting over someone elses paint job as youll often drown some of the detail in paint the boots and where the joints come together could have that happen. Really nothing super serious though you're the only person that counts when judging them anyway. :biggrin: looking forward to some more stuff soon.

ah that explains the thick paint

did youy strip it first ?

 

[Darthlace]

it was already 'stripped' when you say thick paint. its not thick at all 1 coat of mechrite red

the answer to the painting over someon elses stuff i go through with knife and file bringing out the details

mecarite red is very thick paint....

is it ? never heard of it .. why are some paints thick but my scorached brown is watery >?

 

[Darthlace]

i can see what your saying but its not think in its application on my models

 

[cccp]

foundation paints are thicker so they cover the model better. it applied to all models, the paint is the same thickness in every pot.

if you say so....
