That's an awesome job, all that bling works really well with it.
It almost looks like a lucky draw item.

hey lcz128,
love what you've done - its made me want to try it too.
I just bought lockdown today for $12 :D and really did not like the paint. was thinking of painting it completely black and appying chrome to it.
about the mirror finish you linked at HLJ - its a sticky sheet that you peel and apply to the parts you want to be shiny?
also how many did you need to buy?
thanks.
*Long Whistle* that's some awesome Blingin' Lockdown..Err...Rockdown.
I stayed away from some of the Henkei stuff cos I disliked the chrome and generally, I dislike chrome (which explains me staying away from Z Gundam Hyaku Shiki 1/144 model kit cos the normal release is chromed) but the work you have done on Rockdown is awesome! Great stuff, especially his bot mode.
Oh damn - sorry i haven't ventured into here much at all of late! Sorry!Quote:

And thanks everyone else! :)
I haven't been TF customising in a while but will be back in some time :D
no problem, i had a look at loophole's thread and will probably follow his method with the chroming pen he used as it seems a lot easier for things that arent flat surfaces.Quote:

I realised that, how did you get the mirror finish applied to the engine so nicely?Quote:
