When Ryan first showed me that "Styrker" concept pic, I wish Hasbro had done that instead of the blood red and arctic camo that Wreckage sports. Then I saw Jin's repaint of Wreckage and I knew I had to try it. It's the same basic method as Jin's, but I used different shades and Tamiya paints.

The base coat is flat black, followed by olive drab dry brushing, and then neutral gray dry brushing in certian areas for detail. I then dry brushed a little bit of silver, applied silver to the face & red eyes, and I am finishing up dry brushing dark copper on the legs and a couple more details. I'll finish by clear coating it. Alt. mode coming soon .

Finished him up.

Awesome!
Yea of all the repaints Hasbro gives us, they just don't do one of the best molds ever in a decent color.

although, I must admit, that concept pic does not look as good as the toy!

Hey, Thanks man . I'm just glad it's done and looks half way decent.
