I was going for cute & different on this project with The Transformers G1 "Only Human" episode Autobot Synthoids: Rodimus Prime, Ultra Magnus, Springer & Arcee. (Base The Wiggles Mini Figuers)
I used craft foam to fabricate parts for the collors. The males were pretty cut & dry, only needing paint and minor mods. Arcee on the other hand was a challenge. Emma the base for Arcee was a single plastic mold with a skirt. I pulled out my trusty Dremel to whittle her solid skirt into legs and Bingo!!!
I used Testors model paint, Sharpie paint pens and primed with DecoArt all purpose sealer.
Hows that for out of the box???
