my first attempt at a repaint, did a g1 sideswipe (kinda) paint scheme on the RotF figure. still need to finish up some things. found some repro decals that work nicely.

Nicely done!!

This is how he shoulda been in the movie :)
Silver is so generic; a cool character needs a hot paint job, and looks like you pulled it off!

Don't get me wrong cuz I own one too, but not gonna repaint him - just gonna wait for the repaint to come out in the Fall as Swerve but you did one heckova - I wish I had the patience to do something like this!

Man I am jealous :-P

That has got to be one of the nicest reds I've seen used. What brand paints did you use? Also excellent job overall well done.
