I took some steel wool to it then,washed it with a dish soap to remove any oils then primered it with a good auto primer.

Do you do comishion customs alpha Spider?

I guess im the only one who doesnt like how it looks. I much rather have the blue look, than gunmetal and black.

I like it. It looks better than the SSC original I think. But I wonder what the result would have looked like if it were a bit more on the purple side, like that BOWEN stealth IM. I don't have a picture, but I know there's one in one of the other IM threads. I really liked that Bowen variant, but mostly because of the more Iconic IM design I think.

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?

Bowen has only made a Stealth IM Bust, I think you are talking about the Hard Hero Stealth IM statue which looks like it is more of a dark blue than purple to me.

This armor isn't accurate to the movie version of the armor either (even if there is a stealth armor in the movie), it is based on the comic armor (which is why it is a Comiquette) but there was never a stealth version of this armor in the comics.

It was just an easy variant to made to reuse existing molds to try and make a few bucks.

well that went poorly...

 

[creature4000]

That's why I didn't buy it..

I like the re-painted gunmetal!!!

 

[the Doctor]

thats a very nice paint job but i'd have prefered that effort going into a red/gold custom.

That's right! Seamed like dark purple to me, but very dark blue is even better.

Problem w/ red/gold custom is the red lights might get lost in the red armor..

true..but if this guy can do a red/gold paint job as classy as that gun metal you at least have a more desirable version of this comiquette.
