My custorm Revoltech Slipstream G1 style

I love the Revoltech figures and I had an extra Starscream because the kids knocked him off the shelf and broke off the tip of one of the wings. So, I bought a new Starscream and contemplated what to do with the old one. I was originally going to repaint him into Thundercracker but I totally love Slipstream and figured I wanted to take on the challenge of customizing the Starscream into Slipstream.

I know she isn't perfect but I got her done. All that is left now is to put the stripes on the wings and the decepticon logos. I figured I would show her here so you guys can give me some helpful criticism of what I could do better or how to improve it because I want to hone my skills of customizing. It is so enjoyable to do and I want to get good at it. So here she is. What do you guys think?

That's pretty sweet dude! Colors are done well, and it still looks quite feminine.

Thanks. I still need to get her stripes and decepticon symbols on. I also want to rework her arm canons. I want to make them skinnier because right now they look a little to big around and I think if I trim them down so they have a smaller circumference it will contrast better. Plus I think I will paint the canons black to have seperation from the arms. I really loved working on this and I hope I can get good at customs eventually. :D

That's good that you're continually working on it! I know with some of my stuff, I see errors, and It's never perfect until 3 or 4 overdoes.

It's all about starting small when it comes to customs.. just keep at it!
