There is no way I would have a shot at the SDCC Starscream so I picked up a True Heroes F-22 from TRU and did a movie inspired Starscream with tatoos. I did keep the purple Decepticon Logo for nostalgia. Thundercracker is up next, havent decided on Skywarp yet but I am leaning towards making him. (please note the little black spider on the back wasnt painted on)

You can't even tell that the lines wave in the photos I'm seeing. Not that waves wouldn't look good and make the scheme seem more organic which is something all the Bay-Formers seem to be going for, an organic feel.
But, I agree, a roll of masking tape and a can of Krylon will do away with unsteady hands if you really want straight edges... And yes, do the other two seekers. This is a great alternative to the G1 stuff. Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 07-10-2011 at 11:28 PM.. |

I appreciate the advice. This was my first stab at a custom. I asked my oldest son (7years old) if he wanted to wait and have me try to do a Skystriker Starscream custom or a movie Starscream. He voted for the movie screamer. I like how it came out and will take the advice on the tape with Thundercracker, I plan on doing the DOTM deluxe version for him. I think I will go old school paint on Skywarp.
