A while back, a Joe buddy of mine requested that I make an ''Ultimate'' Ace custom for his collection. He did not have any recipe in mind, he simply wanted it to be an updated version in vintage colors and for it ''to be cool''. I got to work on it and assembled the base figure relatively quickly. I got started painting the off white with an older bottle of paint from my supplies. Unfortunately, it was probably older than I thought and started flaking. I had to sand a couple of pieces and replace a few more. Since I wanted to match the original off white as closely as possible, it took some searching at a couple of hobby stores to find a new color. Despite the setbacks, I'm very happy the final result.
