I kind of felt for Thanos in this movie
It will be used to make everything well again in the next one:thumbsup..........don't blame the gauntlet it is the person who uses it that is to blame
Yes like all genocidal maniacs they believe what they are doing is for the greater good. Its like you are not really paranoid if they really are out to get you

Two thoughts.
#TeamThanos
As much as I love the SDCC Gauntlet, and the heavy weathering and browning... I kind of want to get my hands on another to hit with hydrochrome and put a mirror gold finish on it with light weathering. I think that would look amazing.

Thanks! Sorry it took this long to answer. Work has been crazy lately.
I used gold and copper rub and buff metallic paints to highlight some areas, then used black polyurethane paint (the one that you use to dye polyurethane resins) to darken the whole gauntlet. This kind of dye won't dry easily, so you need to make sure not apply a lot of it. Do more than one coat at a time, it will stay better.
Then I used cristal clear resin to add more rock-ish look to the gems. When dry, I repainted it and highlighted the corners so It looks more like a cristal gem and less plastic-y.
To finish, I applied a couple coats of gloss varnish. The first one I tried it to be smooth, just to seal the paintjob. Then I went crazy and tryed it to stick in patches to give it a granny look, trying to give it a rought, dusty surface. It doesn't feel like it, but it reflects light differently than usual. See what I mean in the close up photo for comparisson.
I hope you can understand every step, I wrote everything on a rush and It wouldn't surprise me that there is some mistakes. Sorry in advance and thanks for the compliments.
Thanks picosbeak123 for the very helpful explanation and I am really glad you used rub 'n buff as I just ordered some of these to have a go at my gauntlet. I have not used these before so will have to experiment on something safe first but hopefully I can get to something near the excellent job you did on yours and some of the other great paint jobs shown in this thread.thumbsup:thumbsup

It's finally warmed up and I am gearing up to repaint mine. Can anyone recommend a good plastic primer that's clear? I have dabbled with a lot of primers for plastic car parts, and some specialty primers that claim to stick to almost anything, but they're all gray or white. I plan on sanding it down before I prime anyway, to help as much as possible. Gonna try Montana gold spray for the base.

Bulldog Adhesion Promoter is clear and great for sticking to this type of plastic.

This years helmet is Black Panther. Already out. I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen someone with one in hand now that I think about it, everyone just owns the Gauntlet.

It's out already? My Amazon pre-order still says August 1st.

Ah, my mistake. I thought it was released already. That would explain why I haven’t seen anyone with them... wasn’t it announced back in January or February? They sure are taking their time!
