Really nice weathering! It brings out all the details that was obscured by the bright white plastic.

Thanks, i agree. don't understand how Hasbro can go to the trouble of doing all that detail on this guy then leave it in large unpainted and then to make it worse, make it bright white which hides it all :-?

Really makes him look the powerful ancient city bot he is in the FOC/IDW continuities, and those UV reactive spots are amazing - top work

Thanks man, glad you can see the IDW influence with the touch of FOC (mainly the glowing lights and darker colour)

Here's a few update pics, still slow going but will keep at it

This detail work is really amazing. I have see a couple of Metroplex projects and I am pondering doing it as well.

I am digging the glow paint adds another facet of life to the figure. I also like the weathering you've done over the white as well. Kudos :APPLAUSE:
