For a second, I thought we had the same dryer. I think yours is newer, though. |

Your hiss was the reason I customized mine. Looks great with the added machine gun and gear.

Dude it looked awesome before, now it is just an absolute work of toy art. It should be on the front page. Your custom inspired me. I went and bought one of these yesterday, and just got done spray painting it and putting it back together. I have not painted the canopy yet, cause I want to make sure the paint matches up. I ironically used the exact kind of spray paint you used( did not check before hand what you used ). But, what did you use to paint the canopy? To be honest the canopy with its very dark blue actually does not look bad. It blends, in well and kind of makes the rest of the black pop. But, I want to go with uniformity.

this is cool, the POC Hiss was my favourite Hiss but if this was available online or at retail this would easily top that, excellent work well done

I just repainted mine and added a couple bells and whistles. Those dudes went the full nine putting v5 tracks on, incorporating LEDs and all kinds of other awesome stuff that I couldn't even begin to attempt. Quote:

All I did was use some thinned out Testors Model Masters Acryl Flat Black and hand painted the canopy and the nose gun. It took a couple coats, but as far as I'm concerned turned out great. The parts that are factory painted bluish-purple on the canopy seem porous and took the paint really well. I've had zero issues with chipping, even in the high stress points of the hinge on top and the sides. It was actually probably more work, but I'm satisfied with how it turned out. Basically this all started after I saw the first images of the new Retaliation HISS from the Hasbro press release. I never liked the colors and never intended on keeping one "mint" because HISS tanks should be black, dammit! So I brought the photo into photoshop and messed with it to see what it might look like in black and I KNEW I would be picking one up to paint... It's a pretty cool tank and a nice addition to Cobra's Mobile Infantry Division. More firepower is always welcome. After I get the parts in for my custom pilot/driver I'll post one more update... |
