I think the Renegades Firefly makes a pretty nice looking Ice Viper. Only problem I had is that the white paint is coming off onto my fingers when I touch it. Any suggestions? I'm just thinking it's the humidity down here.

Are you using accrylic paint or testors model paint?
I discovered a gloss finish spray at my local hobby shop works real well. Nice job though. |

Jeez! That's brilliant! I'm usually pretty picky with custom Vipers since the parts used normally feel like they're 'not there yet'... but this is high grade. Well done! : )

Know how I know this? Because you posted a declassified flyer which was meant for fun as a NEWS ITEM. No one would ever tell you anything because the VERY FIRST THING you would do is post it here. Probably incorrectly. |

This is a great idea. Do you think you could take some pictures in better light?

Great use of that figure. I really hate the feet though. I mean, what's up with the kid sized shoes? Anyone else notice how small the feet are? I suppose some men are bigger than others.

You can also spray it with a clear coat to seal it if its only slightly tacky.

If you did use enamel, best bet is to take rag, dip it in thinner, remove the oil paint and start over with acrylic paint.
