Hey guys, I got a 2nd hand C3PO but when it arrived it was covered in chocolate and sticky black goo from the previous owner. Whist trying to remove the goo I ended up stripping the figure back to the plastic. The remover I used was too harsh.
My question is, is there any specific paint to use for respraying C3PO?
Would you recommend a White primer before the gold paint or just go ahead and spray him gold from the start?
Thanks for any replies.
Give him a good coat of primer . Black would work well as it'd add depth to the gold coat . Do you have the dept store "Wilkinson" in Ireland ? If so , they do a good range of metallic spray paints ( under £3 for a big can !) and the gold would work a treat for Threepio .
Here's the first of my Clankers that I've added articulation to . Most of the heavy lifting's done , all that remains is a little cosmetic work , re-scribing detail here and there and a bit of paint work .
Fantastic!! Looks awesome TG. What did you use for the upper arm articulation?
