That black one is great, I may do one of those
Love the black one, superb 👍
Great job mate
Absolutely loved this part 2. Can’t wait for 3PO to get his gold.
Were did you get the strange looking r2 at the back, the one you painted the head chrome
Forgot to color there shoulders
Yes some of them didn't need it, looked better without.
Is there ever a situation where you would use a primer first? Are there any benefits in doing this? Thanks
Its all down to perosnal preferences. I have primed before as it does make the paint tougher, but Itoo much prime looses detail on some figs, but if using good quality acrylic paints and decent brushes and as they are just for display, then priming is not needed, as I tend to cover them with a matt/satin coat afterwards, that protects the paint.
Just a curiosity question. I have always been told when painting with a mirror chrome paint to always paint whatever you are painting gloss black first and it will give you a better shinier look. I noticed that you are not doing that so I was wondering what you think about that technique?
Good point, but with this mirror paint there's no need for an undercoat :-) It's a game-changer!
What’s the best thing to use for taking off the original paint?
i have tried oven cleaner, that works, some people use break fluid? there is group called custom droid stripping they use lots of things, just depends what country you are in! you want to make sure its something that doesn't melt plastic.

@@TrashCompactor Watching your video again I caught oven cleaner. Just tried it on mine and it worked great!! Thank you.
Gunmetal?
Trash Compactor is there any special place i could get acrylic paint pens? (There seems to be a ton of knockoffs online & wasn't sure)
These are the ones I got on amazon, it was my third set as the other branded one's I bought were rubbish but these are really nice and keep flowing and have a good coverage.
