Model Masters Gloss Clear Acryl will probably work great to make him shiny. I've never used the gloss, only the semi-gloss because the semi-gloss has been shiny enough for SS hair and stuff for me.

cosmiccustom I will and that will be my last step. I even added glue on some part to add shine on it but I want that chrome paint just like that silver surfer above.

Get that gloss on!
He looks great. The eyes don't bother me as much, now that everything else is touched up. The sculpting on the body is beautiful too. The tail is acceptable. Great work. 9.5/10
So you selling him?

^ Thank you! I will be selling him, but I have to enjoy looking at it first.
Btw speaking of meta cooler, does anyone familiar of the movie or have seen the deleted scene? So if your familiar with the movie, after goku and vegeta defeated the "clone" meta cooler. There was hundreds of "clone" showed up on top of the hill. Then one of the "clone" went to hunt for the rest of the Z fighter. As his searching for them he saw Porunga was summon (I don't remember who summon him) and before he was about to fulfill the wish, the "clone"tried to stop him. You can see in the picture that he was about to fight Porunga, sorry that's the only picture I could find online...
...and that's how people came up with an excuse "my dog ate my homework".
No animals was hurt during this photo shot and no figures was destroy.

No he never did, maybe his busy customizing. It's all good, the more I look at this figure the more I'm liking the color. Just like cosmiccustom, adrenaline, bran and the others said "seal it with gloss" so I will do that once i get a chance.

Mmmkay, I was just curious. The only "chrome powder" I could find requires a ridiculous temperature to cure, so I assume that's not what he used  |

I think I know what your talking about, it's same process when powder coating rims. It'll melt the figure lol, unless his figure is made from real steel  . |

I guess you'll have to become a blacksmith and make another Metal Cooler out of real metal, so you can chrome it.

Okay so again I would like to give elothk a credit for his recent custom of goku. This is my own version but his work gave me a boost to finally make this guy.
So here is my WIP battle damage goku.
This is probably my last custom, I'm only going to customized when I have a commission. I'm exhausted, missed gym for 7 months lol.

Looks sweet!
Work out at home. In the time you spend getting dressed and driving to the gym, you could be halfway done or done working out at home lol. It's what I do.

Very nice. Did you sculpt that chest? It looks perfect. My only complaints are that the boot lines aren't correct. Should be yellow instead of red and then the laces should be red, and his biceps should probably be as thick as his shoulders. Other than that, very nice.
