I need advice on how to paint Matrix

Postby Beathil » Wed Mar 23, 2016 8:11 am

Hello all, this is my first post here.

I recently bought the Battle in Space two pack with Rodimus and Cyclonus and I want to paint the die-cast Matrix that came with it.

Any ideas or suggestions on what brand and type of paint I should use? Specific color recommendations?

Since I want it bright, I was thinking of going with a white base coat, that's all that I can think of so far. I want to try to go with a more G1 cartoon style look to it.

I also plan on eventually getting labels for Roddy, he needs it.
