    Default Grey or Silver?

    Okay guys - here's the scenario:

    Henkei Starscream.

    Okay. He's apparently heaps better than the original Hasbro release. Is he cool?
    Personally, yes- first seeker I've gotten a hold off and I think that he really works as an homage to the G1's and am very happy with him. HOWEVER. He does have the one thing I loathe in modern day transformers:

    Grey plastic masquerading as some shade of metal.



    Yes. I hate it. Hate it with a vengeance. <_<; So. With Henkei screamer - what should I paint him with?
    This Tamiya Titanium Silver paint or Sky Grey?

    Essentially : Silver / Grey ?
    *note: by Silver, I do not mean chrome! (ie - won't be the same effect as say - henkei convoy's front grille- it'll be like all the other silver stuff I've done)
    Please help me choose!

    I say gray as you don't see bright shiny planes around, well not since the 50' and 60's I would guess.

    I'd have to agree. A pale grey would look very nice... & realistic to boot .

    Only the first coat has gone on - so there's still imperfections but yes! Maybe this will help ?
