Thanks Thomas! I really appreciate that... :)

Very cool! Took my suggestion & did him huh? I'm honored & what you did was really cool! He came out very nice! Did you have problems with loose limbs before you repainted him? I ask because in general that's an issue with the ESB release of C3PO because of the toy. It's very common to find loose legs especially on these guys. And I don't know if you would be interested but Trash Compactor has several repainting videos on vintage collection droids & has custom belly stickers on his Esty store to make them look like they've got wiring. Not true vintage stuff, neat looking regardless! Again, cool video man!

Thanks, glad you liked it! My figure didn't have any limb joint issues, but his chrome was all beat up. Those custom "belly stickers" sound really cool though. It might be neat to try one of those on this figure to see how it would look. Thanks again for the watch, comment, and support... much appreciated! :)

Great job! It looks great. What mix ratio did you use for the gold finish?

@MisterBobot

Жыл бұрын

@@michaelangelopeters Thank you very much! I think the ratio was about 30 parts topcoat to 5 parts gold tint. I had to kind of "eyeball" the rest based on consistency / thickness of the mixture for the airbrush... :)

What chrome pen do you use for chrome on transformers?

That was a great video! I loved it. I was wondering how you use the chrome in a sprayer. I am trying to repair the chrome on a Dragonzord and I wanted to know how you would go about doing it?

Very nice. A good result. Something I could suggest with the video though, it's that lighting is inconsistent, so you may want to think about that for your videos. Sometimes it can get very dark.

Hi Robert, thanks for the watch and comment! I agree, the lighting in my older videos was not very good. I have made some improvements since then and hopefully my more recent videos are better. Thanks!
