I loved the shiny silvery paint you put on him. Pretty and shiny. Then, the gold. Pretty and shiny. And at the end of the video.....He's so beautiful. As Mr Bobot says "It's not too shabby!"😁

@MisterBobot 2 года назад

Thanks! I try to do everything I can to keep the restoration as close to the original as possible, so that means shiny, shiny, gold chrome. Thanks for the support Crasher... It's always appreciated.

@michaelangelopeters 2 года назад

Great job! It looks great. What mix ratio did you use for the gold finish?

@MisterBobot 2 года назад

@@michaelangelopeters Thank you very much! I think the ratio was about 30 parts topcoat to 5 parts gold tint. I had to kind of "eyeball" the rest based on consistency / thickness of the mixture for the airbrush... :)

@roberthaynes8830 Год назад

Very nice. A good result. Something I could suggest with the video though, it's that lighting is inconsistent, so you may want to think about that for your videos. Sometimes it can get very dark.

@MisterBobot Год назад

Hi Robert, thanks for the watch and comment! I agree, the lighting in my older videos was not very good. I have made some improvements since then and hopefully my more recent videos are better. Thanks!

@roberthaynes8830 Год назад

@thebigdb1 2 года назад

Very cool! Took my suggestion & did him huh? I'm honored & what you did was really cool! He came out very nice! Did you have problems with loose limbs before you repainted him? I ask because in general that's an issue with the ESB release of C3PO because of the toy. It's very common to find loose legs especially on these guys. And I don't know if you would be interested but Trash Compactor has several repainting videos on vintage collection droids & has custom belly stickers on his Esty store to make them look like they've got wiring. Not true vintage stuff, neat looking regardless! Again, cool video man!

@MisterBobot 2 года назад

Thanks, glad you liked it! My figure didn't have any limb joint issues, but his chrome was all beat up. Those custom "belly stickers" sound really cool though. It might be neat to try one of those on this figure to see how it would look. Thanks again for the watch, comment, and support... much appreciated! :)

@LextheRobot 10 месяцев назад

Would've been interesting to see you mask off the lower right leg and leave it silver.

@MisterBobot 10 месяцев назад

Yep, that would be kind of cool looking... maybe a future project? Thanks for the view and the comment! :)

Great video. Thank you for sharing these awesome tips. Can you please make a black series C-3PO figure like this or have you made a black series version with the vac metal paint?

Hi John, glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching! No, I haven't done a black series C-3PO figure like this, but I do take requests if you'd like to send me one. :)

That's great to know. If I happen to find another one I'll definitely send it to you. I'd love to see a Black Series vac metal C-3PO figure.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I've used the Molotow refill chrome paint in my airbrush and the Green Stuff World chrome as well. Both work very well.
