This is my take on making the dull voyager Starscream look a little more movie-accurate.

I couldnt afford to make the mod to his arms and hands so i kept them original but painted them to match the rest of the toy and i think they look alright now.

I used silver car paint, applied with an airbrush and the rest i used enamels. I used acrylics for the black washing (as thats all they are good for).

The decals are from an F-15 model kit i bought as a side project.

I added a Decepticon logo to the nose cone as a little nod towards G1 screamer.

Shiny!

Pretty cool take on him, I like the color distortion on the wings it looks like the movie stills I've seen.

Ya know, I said it was glorious earlier, but giving it a second, longer look, I'd say is was more magnificent with a glorious highlight and awesome undertones :lol:

If you find me an MP scream from Walmart you can have him for free!

(a $50 screamer for a custom $60 screamer seems like a fair trade.

Hehe, well im glad you like it so much. Im not as proud of it as i was with my ironhide custom, i just feel like i could have added more detail to screamer but the mold simply doesnt allow for it so i felt limited in what i could do and that took away from the fun and overall final satisfaction a bit.

Wow. Very nice Starscream. This is as close as one can get to Movie-accurate.

Although i have a bit of misgivings on the Decepticon symbol. Not that i don't want it there, but it's the color. Violet Decepticon logo is very G1. A black, or white, or gray logo will make it even more Movie-accurate.

That was the intention mate. It was a nod towards G1.

I see. But it's good you made the symbol small. So as not to spoil the overall color scheme of Starscream.

Brilliant.
