I did this one just for fun. I think it looks a lot better than the green look. I might change it a bit and put some 'dirt' and grime on him later, i don't know yet...what do you all think?

Oh yeah, his hand is covered to protect the soft plastic from paint tacky crud.

Nice work there! Some tips though: I know its just for fun, but you can still see the green inside his chest, but he's really easy to open up/put back together.

Whats this hand tacky thing? when I used testors enamels, the left hand turned out fine. Is there some paint/sealer that I shouldn't use on rubbery parts?

But anyways, your repaint is miles ahead of the original (seafoam green... yuck).

Thanks! I did get in there and fix those gears (thank you) and I finished his hands and weapon. In response to your question, a fellow customizer had painted over some of those rubbery parts (using testors as well) and they never actually dried...they got tacky. So, I just tape them off and then prep them later for paint apps. Not tackiness but if you never had that, then that is awesome! I never actually experienced it myself but then again, I didn't want to.
