OK so I was a lil hesitant posting this one here but oh well. This is my Veritech Fighter cross over. Yes it still transforms but I will leave it in bot form do to the type of paint I used.

Sigma 6 Sky BAT Head and back piece
Hiss tank gat gun
VF-19 Macross 1/65 scale Veritech Fighter base
and of course... the paint job

I don't know this character , but your paint brings it to life.

your metal weathering is inspired, did you use an airbrush?

They are like Japanese Anime characters. You know the old Robotech cartoon in the early eighties. I had this one laying around with a broken off head and decided what the heck I'll resurect him with some Joe upgrades ;-) . Yes I do use an airbrush but I also hand paint to. I can do crisp clean paint jobs but I prefer the worn, "I've seen battle" look. Thanks 2DARK

That looks really neat. I'm not sure I'm ready to invest in airbrushing yet, but I think I will one day.

Reminds me of Robotech but it looks like it could transform.

Cool paintjob!
Just an airbrush job or did you do some pre-shading too? Great result!
