4.0 out of 5 stars A good but hideous revision of the bodyguard armor., July 5, 2010

If it wasn't obvious, this is a black version of the Bodyguard with hideous red outlines.

Instead of a brute shot you get a Brute plasma rifle.

At first I tried painting the outlines with a sharpie, then I realized the ink was holding on pretty well.

I decided to repaint the rest of the armor completely black.

At first I thought a fine point sharpie would get all the tight spots, but that was not the case.

I tried a fine point sharpie pen and it gave better ink flow into the cracks.

It took about an hour a day for a week to get all the tight spots but it looks a lot better than before.

I would not recommend doing it with every figure, due to the different texture some of the paints seem to have.

Some stick better to the ink and some just smudge right off.

Overall, the joints got a bit loose but still stable after a week of wiggling appendages around to paint.
