Age of Extinction: Deluxe Crosshairs - Paint Overhaul

Motto: "Who and what I am, I hide from the enemy."
Weapon: Electro-Disruptor
Picked up AoE Crosshairs and quickly started adding much-needed paint apps to him. End result? Pretty sweet!

Here’s the pic I used as a reference:

As you can see, much more silver & metallic grey on him in the film than there is on the figure. Plus green on his feet, goggles need color, and red highlights on his legs. Here's what mine looks like now:

Here’s a side-by-side with the original deco (pic borrowed from the galleries here on Seibertron):

Most of the paint was applied to the bot mode, but there was some touch-ups I did to the back-end of the vehicle mode (exhaust pipes, taillights, and color for the Corvette logo, which I also added to the hood as well)

Couple more pics:

Overall, great looking figure with a little bit of time and paint!

Would love to know what you all think!

That is one awesome repaint looks much better I must say. Awesome job! :grin: What paint did you use for the green? been finding it a bit hard to find a colour that will match well with this figure. :BANG_HEAD:

Thanks! I appreciate that! :D

The green I used is Tamiya X-28 'Park Green' bottled acrylic paint.

Matches perfectly! ;)^
