Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Airbrushable chrome paint?

After seeing this repaint by Reinhardt on the freaks board Clicky I was thinking of painting by battle damaged Hot Toys endo, or maybe trying to source a second one to paint. I've tried car chrome paint before and they are a bit messy and hard to work with. Has any ideas on a chrome paint you can air brush like has been done with the Neca one? Some one asked on the Freaks board but Reinhardt said he commisioned it.

Thanks

Alan

You can either send it to a place in Cali who paints chrome, which items come out amazing.

This is the link to the thread with his info and pics on whats been done so far.

Or do a search in this section you posted in about Aclad chrome paint. You can do it yourself as long as you follow the process. Need to gloss coat a item and then airbrush alclad chrome paint to get that shinny effect.

Also check out the Alclad web site for more info.
