They both look great and they fit in with the original toys perfectly!! I especially love the Shadow's cannon thingy... nice work!

Hey Wheeljack, these are great!

Haven't seen you post before, so these are a great start!

Both fit into the AF world perfectly and are done to a high standard!

That Shadows gun works perfectly in the sci-fi shadow concept.

If DAMartin's sexy-custom-lipstick :baroness: wasn't up for custom of the month this month, you'd be in a shout I reckon....


Excellent work. More please.

So its custom hardware week? Well that Shad cannon certainly looks every bit the sci-fi shad part. Sorta steals the thunder from the Z tank. The tanks cannon tips are a bit distracting, but still the right colour.

Well done.

Thanks for all the nice comments.
They are both from the Lanard Corps sets i think.I picked them up from a bootfair.
I wasnt to sure about the Shadow Cannon,before it was painted it looked like a piece of crap.Its strange most people seem to like that one best.
The tips of the cannons light up when you press a button so i thought it would be best to leave them that colour.
The stickers from this website,they are easy to apply and well worth the money.
I want to start airbrushing the cammo on the next lot i do.Do any of you guys have any tips please?
Also i highly recommend the primers from (the army builder website).
The green is perfect for z-Force and they have most of the other colours needed to.

Got to say TKW - I find them absolutely spot on.

I've been working on, well, too many customs lately to get anything finished, but my entry for Augusts Custom of the Month is prepped and ready to be obliterated by whatever Andy makes while his tea is cooking, and feature your stickers quite prominently. I can't recommend them highly enough - easy to apply, and finish items off perfectly.

Even :storm: 's hat has been "customised"!

Thanks Steve, pretty happy with them on my stuff but wasnt sure if others would find them too fiddly or something...

I built a 1/75 Sea King the other day and had no end of problems applying the decals to that, the ones I had from TKW
work a treat though, come highly recommended from me :)
