So I had bought a Wolfwire sometime before Xmas and had been wanting to work up the courage to try and do a custom paint-job on him, as I was not a fan of the admittedly iconic yellow and green/teal color scheme. So I went browsing around Google trying to find a good color set based on other canine-type Transformers. And it was only when talking to a friend one evening that it hit me.
"Why limit myself to just recoloring him as another Transformer?" and I looked up to the top of my desk and there was the answer...my Kamen Rider Kiva Garuru Saber.
Royal Blue
...
Silver
...
Red
...and
Gold
?? It would be beautiful!!
This is where it moved over to Tokusatsu territory! ^^
Now as it was my first time, I made some classic errors. Such as just using Gundam Markers to remake the blue color perfectly. This left many patches and streaking along the surface. And soaking in diluted rubbing alcohol/water blend? Yeah, do NOT do that with plastic for long at all, less than a minute at MOST. Otherwise you risk the thin parts of your figure...like say, the HINGE for the cockpit, snapping and ruining part of the transformation.
But all in all, I am happy of my work and am excited to see what else I can whip up with my collection. Thank you to all who viewed this and BIG thanks to any and all who comment. Criticisms are welcomed!
Also! What kind of customs would you suggest trying with Transformers or other figures which can be made into Tokusatsu-style characters?
