Finally! This guy has been sitting on my shelf unpainted for more than a year. I love how poseable this figure is. Lots of detail on him too. I gave him the black base coat, dry brushed silver and aluminum, 2 or shades on gray and then gun metal with some copper highlights. And now Landmine must fight the all powerful WHEEEEEELLLIIIIEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!



Ok. I don't know why but THIS guy was a pain! So many little joints and rubbing and the fact that I really had no idea what colors to use didn't help. Here we go, I started with the usual Krylon black base coat, dry brushed silver and aluminum. Then I did the same thing as my Starscream and Bonecrusher by adding brass and then gold. It looked cool but changed my mind and didn't want that so then I made a wrong turn and added grays and thing went down hill from there. I have no idea what happened or what I did but then my gun metal saved the day. The color I used for Landmine. In the end, I got a Breakaway that looks kind of old and beat up. Kind of like movie Jetfire. Whatever steps I used, I have to try that again when I get Jetfire. Anyway, here's Breakaway. Oh yeah, slight mod on the front window. I sanded the inside to allow the haed to pop out more.

Somehow you made Breakaway look evil(and cool) hehe. Nice job

Nemesis Breakaway!

That dull grey palette really works for these two. I must experiment with dull grey drybrushing.

If you like how poseable Landmine is, take a sharp knife to the grooves between his fingers. It's very easy and very quick. Then you'll REALLY be impressed by his poseability!

Thanks for the comments! Breakaway does look evil, yet still sad
