New Custom Seaspray


Silverbolt

Recommended Posts

I can't rememeber who, but someone from Seibertron made a comment about creating this guy in passing. Since I was already planning to dye a jet a acceptable color for the figure I figured I would just get a cheap one and do it. The figure is a Hippie version of Seaspray, Waterbong

Pretty much thats all there is to it. the chest piece is the only dyed piece. I found that it goes faster the more heat you have but then you run the risk of warping the plastic. I would say that the pieces that I did took about a hour or two to get the desired results. Darker colors would probably work even better. I'm guessing that black would produce the best results and be the easiest to work with. One of the pluses is that the dye allows for a color that will not flake off. I've sat and scratch at it with my finger nail and can't chip it. So its a very good alternative to paint for a rub area.

Just regular RIT dye. You can find it at most supermarkets. Just remember that the color has to be darker then what you are dying, and I'm sure the darker colors will work alot better then the lighter. As for the stickers they're flowers and I got them off a sheet, don't think I'll keep them on though. I was going with the idea as it was posted at Seibertron.
