That would be one method, though I would be careful using chrome paints, as they tend to flake. I'd use a simple silver or gunmetal gloss for the drybrushing. If you want the parts to shine a bit brighter, use a glossy paint for the drybrushing. I did this with that awful redo of the ball and chain that came out with Absorbing Man, and was able to get a pretty good match to his metallic skin.

Those heads work fine. The plastic is a little different from other head casts out there, as most casters tend to cast in resin. A warning, you will more than likely need to use a dremel for the head socket, because remember, a cast is a COPY of the original mold, and is never perfect. I have yet to get a head cast from anyone that hasn't required this. Also...that's not Captain America...that's Tom Holland. Chinabay I tell you...

I picked up the Liefeld Deadpool yesterday from a local toy expo...and he has me eating crow. I like him WAY better than Taco-Pool, and honestly, he's my favorite figure of the year, and I'm not even a DP fan. Like someone mentioned earlier, the colors pop, the paints on mine were super clean and crisp, and I really dig the matte finish. The mask is sinister and menacing, and without that ridiculous doop on back. The Sunfire body mold was a good choice, I even like his tiny swords. The only flaws I can see are nitpick(s) really...and that's the lack of guns (thank goodness I've stockpiled over the years) and the lack of a BAF piece. X-Force DP should have been the one released without a BAF part.
