Repainted a TR Sentinel Prime and a Blitzwing titan master
Normally I hate using white but this time I used a spray and I think it worked well.
I did have the midriff painted grey but felt it looked too much like Nova Prime.

Looks good, how many coats did you use to cover up all that orange?

One good coat of grey primer, then 1-2 coats of white. Handbrushed with a flat white to cover up small blemishes/corrections.
I was actually pleasantly surprised how well the white went on.

Looks fantastic. No real give always that he was once the colour of an American politician/billionaire...

I always found the white undercoat spray cans from games workshops did an amazing job at under coating, I was always too scared to use anything from A hardware store even though it was likely the same stuff for a much smaller price!

Love it!
Might consider doing this with my Astrotrain if I decide to get the Earthrise version....

Rustoleum does a range that is a colour plus primer, it works a treat.

I’ve used the rustoleum red with good results (turbo, CW rodimus).
For this I used White Knight flat white
I always use the cheapest primer from Bunnings
