HFTD Sidearm Sideswipe Repaint

Postby formula93 » Fri Nov 12, 2010 12:32 pm

Just did this one for myself. Love this mold, HATE those stupid "flames." Sanded, cleaned, krylon fusion (gloss and flat) black basecoat. Rustoleum "bright silver" for the car bits, drybrushed with testors enamel steel and silver chrome. Gold, red, orange, dark red, and silver highlights. Robot parts have a couple coats of Testors Dull Cote lacquer, while the car parts are cleared with Future (I was going to use Gloss Cote lacquer, but wasn't sure how it would react with the acrylic on the windshield.) Also added a Kansas license plate decal on the rear. Pretty happy with how it turned out. C&C welcome!

This is really good. The details I can see from the single picture are outstanding. I love the way this turned out for you.

Phenomenal. Will probably do the same with my Sidearm Sideswipe.

I'm in the process of doing the same right now, though it isn't coming out exactly the way I thought it would have :( But it still looks better than those silly flames that hasbro put on him :)
