Thats pretty nice man. Whered you find the sword and the canon?

I'd get one of those fingernail 4 sided shapeing things and use that to polish it up. That'll take off the ridges and make it look smoother

Yeah this looks good but i agree the brush strokes in the paint let it down slightly.

Thanks for the responses guys :grin:
I've already applied a few coats of gloss, and the "streaking" only become apparent after the first gloss coat had dried.
It's not worth the trade-off of diluting the metallic blue paint as I noticed a significant change in the way it caught the light when I tested the paint.
I've let a few friends judge the finished figure and the unanimous decision is that it's not to be messed with. To notice any flaws in the toy you'd have to holding it in direct and powerful artificial light (like a camera flash), and viewing it from less than a foot away. Any other time it looks spectacular, mainly because of the way the blue catches the light. Normally I would have applied thinner coats to reduce streaking, because I learnt from Jin's guide (and I'm flattered by Meverix's comment).
The weapons are either Actionman, GIJoe or something of that scale.
