    Here's what I got done over the weekend. Amazing how fast paint dries when it's 38C.

    Work has temporarily stopped until I get some more paint cleaner for my brushes... Some areas need second coats, some need first coats and I need to straighten out his wing lines.

    For those playing along at home I used Model Masters turquoise spray paint and a scalpel/paper cutter thing (I forget its proper name after years of calling it a shiv ) to scrape off the red markings on jetfire's back and cockpit piece.

    That's looking awesome. Very similar to the Botcon toy. The head is the only thing left to do in order to 'cement' the character.

    Very nice dude, now I gotta get my hands on another jetfire to do this lol.
    Can't wait to see how the head goes.

    90 per cent complete... looking for a colour to match the rest of the body to patch over where I scraped the red off, and trying to work out how to paint the upper wing surface

    Very impressive mate. Sadly I do not own the talent nor the patience to attempt anything like this. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    Very nicely done, you obviously have more patience than I do. I don't think I could ever attempt to do this, let alone all the kitbashes I have in the works lol.
