Here is the card minus the metallic blue UAV sitting diagonal in the bubble:

Of course he'll be weathered and detail painted. I started painting tf's long before Joes.

Finally dry enough to transform and I decided not to paint him khaki in bot mode.

What ktig said so gracefully. ;) It has to be Cobra due to the styling of the bot, but the khaki drone sure looks purdy with my Joes. I guess the US nature of the drone adds to the deception if spotted overhead. I figure it lands on any flat surface, transforms and fights until it...

Hey guys, look what I found.

I decided on "I lost my stealth drone over Iran" khaki:

Since BAT heads are skinny, I think it could be done. The ball on the robot body is too small, but should not be a problem. I think it was $12 at Target. Maybe a dollar or two more.

Once you cut the 4 horns off of his head, it's amazing how close in shape their heads are. I also cut his hands off to give the wings the proper length without some stupid fingers sticking out. I see no reason it needs hands when you can mount weapons on the arms.

Not sure what the final color will be (black, grey or somewhere in between), but the silver helps disguise paint rubs of TFs with so many moving parts.

Found a leftover can of Tamiya from a Megatron custom and could not resist.

Saw this Soundwave drone at the store and had to buy it. After getting it home, it reminded me of a BAT and the idea of an android that could hover overhead spying, then swoop down to eliminate the target seems frightening.

Yeah, saw that on HBO many years ago. Thankfully the Bradley turned into a great vehicle and is easily one of my favorites.

You might try pm'ng Bee.

I saw something similiar and might try it with the TOW optics. I think they used a colored mylar (which would be the same as that metallic confetti) to create the effect. I like the viewports as they are with the metallic blue paint since they don't really jump out unless under bright light...

What he ^^^ said.

Drybrushed the crew (first time I've done a figure). Very subtle, but makes a huge difference when it comes to clothing.

Much better. Now I just need to drybrush or wash them.

Goggles need repainted, but not in the mood right now. I'm sure they'll get done before I sleep.

Quick one coat with JN green. Very happy with the results.
