Takeya Big Alien Repaint
I stripped the prepainted statue and repositioned the arms and the fingers. Beneath the factory colour a lot of details were hidden. The paintwork is done with a lot of brown, green and blue washes and thin layers of white sprayed with an airbrush. The guy is rather big (45 cm) and heavy.

Re: Takeya Big Alien Repaint
Thank you for your comments. 
Painting this beauty was very satisfying.
Removing the dome wasn't easy but I was very careful and worked in little steps.

Wonderful work Karl - REALLY nice!
Has a great "metallic" look to it - totally suits the sculpt & character.
You are not the first to attempt the dome removal & repaint - there are at least 3 other Clubhouse members that have done the same. Did you search here to save yourself some pain or just wing it?
