Very nice job. I'm disappointed the original is so plastic looking.

What do you mean? I tried getting as close as I can to it being movie accurate. Especially with hardly any photos online.

I picked on up earlier this week and it begs to be repainted. It's really a great figure with such a minimalistic paintjob. I already repainted my Mark 01 and this one is next.

Yeah, they should've gone with more of metallic look.

One coat of paint. It might of been too much to ask for what is already a great line.

Great job dude! Amazing what a nice paintjob can do to bring out a figure, looks so much better now with a real metallic/steel look to it

you know how the Iron Man figures have that blue around the white to make it look like a light even though they're about as white as they are on the Iron Monger?

same deal here... not a blackwashing, but a light blue wash around the outsides... though I'm not sure if the Iron Man figures has blue as an undercoat to the edges and a white overcoat in the center or not
