I repainted my robocop, not a full repaint, just added a very light coating of blue (which doesn't show up well in the photos), followed by a very light coating of smoke, just to mute the colors a bit. I didn't go for full screen accuracy, as that's beyond my skillset, just tried to bring the silver down a notch whilst giving it some highlights.

Finished, under natural lighting.

WIP photo, one full leg and one lower leg untouched, so the difference is quite noticeable. This is with just the blue, before the coating of smoke.

Under cabinet lighting. He's a bit less purple than this. :D

My apologies I am a sht photographer.

I still say to this day this is the best headsculpt HT has ever produced, and one of the absolute best in the hobby, including customs.

Really nice work, Mr Walker! :clap
Thanks. Oh yeah, all brush work too. :cool:

Very thinned down acrylic clear blue and smoke (separately applied, blue first). If anyone else wants to try it it's easy, just Tamiya Clear Blue, Tamiya Smoke, some thinner and some gloss clear. Try it on a smaller panel (I used one of the shoulder panels), if you don't like it, or make a mistake, some windex and a cotton bud will strip the acrylic paint right off without damaging the pre-existing paint job.

Barely enough blue and smoke to discolor a white surface, and multiple coats, that way any "overbrushing" you do on areas previously painted you don't have a darker patch of color. Add plenty of thinner so you don't have brush strokes, and keep the brush wet. I practiced on a white plastic spoon sprayed silver until I was happy where 3-4 lightly applied coats of each got me.

I was surprised how much the purple highlights came out after this - they do exist on the existing paint job, it's just wildy overshone by the brightness of the silver.
 
Had it repainted by some one but I’ve personally done weathering and touch ups
