I wonder if this thread is okay here... oh well.

I just want to brag about my latest figure repaint, Thundercracker:

Nice painting.

Btw shouldn't warhammer paintings belong to the artwork section? In my opinion, warhammer 'reports should go to the lesser games and wurhumr paintings to artwork.

.....This isn't Warhammer. This is a Transformer. Lol.

I'm not so big on the paint job, for two reasons:
6. I don't like the combination of blue and red, those colours for some reason seem crowded when used... I don't know how to explain it, it just feels cramped.
7. The paint is kind of thick, you might want to try to keep it thinner on your next pant job.

Cracker? I thought Transformerz were robots, not caucasions

It is. The paint is just horrificly glossy, and my flash makes it look worse.

It may be because of their positions on the color wheel: theyre not complimentory or analogous.
In my opinion, blue and orange would have done wonders for this. =)

It's all Hasbro's fault!

I went mostly for accuracy.

Good call, blame it on the toy company... ;D
If you were going for accuracy, you did a pretty good job!
