For this project, I mostly used Krylon spray paint. The tan is a double coverage nutmeg in satin finish. The black is just the "short cuts" black and also the silver dash. I used an ordinary acrylic on the seats. The decals were mostly from the combat cruiser, but I didn't want to use anything blue or ninja. The joe name and insignia came from an extra RHINO set that I had. You will have to completely disassemble the jeep by removing the 8 screws in the bottom and then removing the smaller parts after that. After painting everything I topped it off with a Testor's dull coat to seal it. The only issue I ran into was the missile rack tearing up the paint on the cross bar. It's hardly visible so I left it alone, but there are tips on the 'Tank for dealing with this if you want to.

Both look awesome, great job. I really want to try and find a couple of these at retail( and before 2-13! ). I plan to turn them into new Stingers.

beautiful man! I love working on vehicles with spray paint too, it makes everything so much easier. Love the job you did on this man, super clean, great color choice and great job on the Clutch figure too. I hope I can get my hands on one of these at some point myself.

Very nice. I like Hasbro's Retaliation Clutch design but, was disappointed that the figure will have limited articulation- it is nice to see 'some justice done' to the figure.

That thing is insane!
So basically this Vamp looks awesome in every color BUT the one they put out. Nice & easy Clutch fix too!
