Bowen X-Force Wolverine claws repaint

[stoods77]

Hey ppl,

I have this awsesome figure, but I think the claws should be painted chrome. Can this be done, and if so what type of paint should I use, oil based or water based? Also is it a good idea? I also have the armoured Daredevil and I am wanting to do the same to the silver parts on him. Any input would be much appreciated.


Cheers,

Now chroming requires a lot of technical skills to achieve, but you can use Alclad chromes to do this. Check out this video: [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AKxXZXTcY4&feature=related[/ame]

Or the easier way out is to just mask all the figure with masking tape but leaving the claws untouched obviously, and then buy a chrome spray can and have at it. But if you have access to an airbrush, the tutorial is what you need.
