Hello there...just thought I'd throw up a couple pics of my first, and probably last, repaint. I had a KO Wheeljack, then I did the smart thing and got a real one, so I decided to paint the KO. Thought black would look cool, and he does look kinda neat outside of the fact I suck at painting and can't seem to take pics of action figures.

I was going to paint the seats, crotch, and forearms purple and call him Skywarp, but I got lazy and I figured the current head wouldn't work anyhow. I may still get some 'con insignia for him, though...I had to paint over those stupid insect looking autobot symbols.

Anyhow, nothing amazing, but thought I'd throw it up and maybe give someone an idea to do something really cool...

***Edited to add a few "better" pics and get rid of the worst one. Learned to ditch the flash...now if only I had a bit steadier hand and more light, I could maybe actually take good pics of TFs.

Well, if he's evil then he's KARR.

I've also bought that horrible Wheeljack KO; i hoped it was a little better.

Anyways, this is a good idea. I'll paint mine red, and see how it ends.

The problem is, it's an awful car. The doors are mis-shaped, and nothing falls into place. Then you realize the quality of the Takara/Hasbro toys.
