any body have alpha repaint theirs yet? the temptation is huge considering the lack of communication by SS...just watched that superbowl tv spot again...alphas paint job is damn close...

I think the grey/silver armor in the commercial is just the unpainted prototype of the armor and not a stealth version but I could be wrong.

i think the stealth version (blue) only appeared in the comics, and doesn't make an appearance in the film. so in essence, alpha's gun metal/black paint scheme seems to be more film accurate than sim. imagine that. anyone's mind blown on that one?

we're waiting for you to ship him yours first. how long have you waited for an answer after sending pictures? even if nothing is to be done in the immediate future, the people waiting should be informed of intention. only fair and courteous. i can see how this would frustrate you.

I think a glossy cherry red version would look really damn slick with the lights. Maybe a few black details, between armor segments, like a SW Royal Guard.

I still don't get this- if the stealth look does not fit in with comic continuity, where does it fit in? Is this a look from the upcoming movie?

well the blue COLOR is accurate to the comics. the STYLE of armor is wrong tho. don't think we've seen this more modern armor in stealth blue yet in the comics. no telling what'll be in the movie.

Technically the suit in the comic was described as being jet black in color but they used the blue coloring to show the highlights/definition of the suit. Although it also looks like there is a difference in color between what would be the red and gold colors of the suit.

Yeah I am doing a few of the repaints, I am gonna do a blue/gunmetal one also to see how that looks. Sorry for the slow reply but the weather finally broke this week and I was able to get back to work!!!

Looks groovy man, better than SS paint work

How did you paint around the back and shoulder armor pieces alpha spider?? They are separate pieces glued on and present nooks and crannies which can be tricky painting around and in.

I use and air brush and just worked on them slowly as to not get any runs, I usually take a couple pics when I think I am done as the pics allways show what ya miss. Sometimes sitting there looking at one thing for to long you miss things here and there and this is a real good way to check yourself. Also if I am having to hard of a time I will use a heat gun and heat up the part and pop it off, the reattach it later.
