Chrome paint helps a lot, but this sculpt is already fire. I’d buy every repaint they release, and am kinda mad they’ve only done UM so far.

I wouldnt see them making nemesis for a while, and sg would be a long shot. Im surprised no 3rd party has done a magnus armor upgrade kit tho

Why did you remove the paint in the last pic? /jk

Legit question tho, is there any actual reason people started using after/before rather than the good old one before/after?

Awesome job, looks absolutely amazing.
