Looks nicer than the normal one I think.
I made my first step into recolors and customs today, and I'm really happy with how it turned out!
I saw the Hasbro VariAres awhile ago and realized I could swap some of its parts with the parts on my regular VariAres and still have it be fully functional (and tournament legal?)! I swapped both the red tabs that show when the plastic parts are retracted and the red bottom, and now I have a fully yellow VariAres!
I did put the red parts on the Hasbro VariAres, but it was still ugly so I didn't take any pictures lol

Wow, those look incredible! Great job dio! I especially like the color scheme of Driger.
Now that I think about it, why weren't Driger GT and Draciel GT real in the first place?

Those look awesome ! Great job.
Love the bit chip stickers. They were partially taken from the anime, yes ?
Also, do you have pictures of the bottom ?

They look a bit .. 'gloopy'.
The Killer Wheel looks best.

I made 5 coats on each re-colour. I worked hard on that Flash especially. It does look gloopy due to bad lighting. Actually, the Killer/Evil metal wheel was my least favourite...
I like all of hem except for the Meteo L Drago, it was painted a little too heavily. Also, Meteo looks so good just by itself! Otherwise, nice paint jobs Zeneo!

I know that the Meteo is heavily painted, hah!
I kind of over-did it I guess.
Meteo looks good white, black and red, but seeing the L-Drago Destroy Golden Armored Version, I couldn't stop myself from painting it golden.

No, not exactly, Cannon.
5 coats were given so that the paints dry, then another coat added will make it easy for the paint not to chip off.

If the layers are too thick, the part will be made very distinct of it.
Use a clear coat or something.

Zeneo, Cannon is right, the real thing is mastering a two or three coated pieces, specially with metallic painting (harder to paint, but is technique more than number of coats)
Just one coat is a little to risky, if you use one, you have to do a base colour before
Trust me! I'm a wargamer!
(I couldn't resist to say that phrase LOL)

Not sure but wouldn't more coats build up and make the paint more easily chip off? Techniques aside they look good especially the Flash Orion. That one looks awesome.
Thanks a lot Ultra.
I'm actually new to re-colouring, so basically, when I think a bey have nice grooves to paint, I paint it.
Imagine painting Dark Clear wheel, hah!

more coats are really messy with the design, it often erase details like little designs or round the edges, but yes, it can be more prone to chip off
I did something something similar with Revizer once; this turned out better.
