Now it never occurred to me to use orange in the Space Force vehicles, that's inspired! May iask, what are the paints oyu've used? I've been unable to find a matching Space Force blue and grey despite many attempts. Scooby, how come you never print off your own stickers?

Vehicle is the L.A.W , CaptainAmerica used it on a Shad custom a while back too

Quite a simple ,plain set that needed a little brightning up
May iask, what are the paints oyu've used
I`ve started using some of the Games Workshop citadel paints,
Blue is the "ultramarines blue" and "fiery orange" for the other.
The grey is "humbrol satin 166 ", bit shiny but the figures are anyway.
how come you never print off your own stickers?
I prefer to paint my own logos on now, bit wobbly on the lines but gives it a little
more personal touch

The computer screens I salvaged from the original, found that sticking them to a figure blister kept the
stickiness really well.

I keep a couple of sheets of A4 printer label backing sheet lying around - you can then store it under a pile of books and keep them from curling.
Cheers for the paint tips, I shall investigate.

I put the entire SKYSTRIKER sticker set on photo paper for storage before
but they all refused to come off:(
The Workshop paints are more expensive at £2 each in hobby craft, but they are realy easy to work with.
