Prime Starscream repaint I can live with

Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
Hello all, may I start of by saying I have been a guest on this forum for quite a while and through it, i was inspired to give this whole "customization and repaint" business a go.
NOTE: im putting "customization and repaint" in quotation marks because i have just started recently and know there may be WORLDS between what im doing and what others here have to offer.


Regarding this work:

- Being a big seekers fan, I preordered myself a first edition deluxe and Voyager Starscream the very day teh internetz said i could. Although Deluxe Starscream only needed little touch-ups here and there, I found the look of Voyager Starscream to be very displeasing... to the point of it looking more like a generic "background" character ala G1 cartoons.

- I tried to capture the look of Starscream from the prime cartoon. Getting rid of the pointless blue areas, highlighting the breastplate with silver and matt gray etc.

I would love to know what you all think.
Thanks

The silver on the wings makes the breastplate repaint not look out of place.

Nice work!

I've also been planning on repainting my voyager TF Prime Starscream (AM version), but one of the biggest problems is that it's just impossible to get the colors accurate in both bot and jet mode.

You made that ugly Voyager Starscream absolutely beautiful. Brilliant work.

At Skywarped:
Thanks for the good idea. I was wondering how to improve the figure further´, I guess I should give the Jet mode some attention. Maybe use poetic license instead of just spraypainting it silver =P~
Any Ideas?

At PrymeStriker:
Thanks for the love! I do not know If you have purchased the figure but "buyers remorse" kicked in within a week. I managed to get it far enough that its sitting with the other Transformers I have out for show instead of the storage box it was in before.

'Nah. I stuck with my FE Deluxe 'Screamer; saved myself from the remorse. Regardless, you certainly made this figure shiny. ;)

I hought it almost impossible to make him look even more like a fembot, but you have proven me wrong.

Yup, totally a fembot I see here, but it works, and I like it.
Probably not what you were aiming for, but great job!
INFINITY! PLEASE!

Yeah.....This mold, and even the deluxe, make perfect fembot toys, which is why I think the mold works better for Slipstream (who I do plan on preordering from BBTS)

Also, the linework on his face just makes his feminine features even more obvious.

To be honest, Starscream should NEVER have a physique like this.

Actually....I could really imagine a slipstream repaint ala War for Cyberton.
Do you know if anyone has already tried this? I cant find any over Google.

Yes, I do know of someone....Hasbro, and if you have $100 to spare you can get her at BBTS.
Here's the link to her page: http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... icture=out

As for custom repaints, I don't know of anyone.
