MARK XX "PYTHON"
Allthough Bootlegs are generally evil, the good thing about them (especially regarding Iron Man) is that we get a lot of "missing" Marks we would never get from LEGO.
Unfortunately those "Bootlegers" are sometimes not very smart or just to foocking stupid to get things right...
An example for not beeing smart is Mark XX "Python". It´s basicly the same as Mark XXI "Midas" in dark grey/black (with Mark XVII "Heartbreaker" legs), which is basicly a golden version of Mark VII... so instaead of reusing the printing plates they already have (copied), they take the design by Crayon Bricks that, allthough being great, looks nothing like Mark XX.
So...I had this idea for a long time...
Taking a spare Mark XXI and paint it with acrylic paint. I mixed black with transparent varnish to get a semi transparent black. But since I didn´t had a usable thinner the layers of paint got a little too thick and therefor the fig a bit too dark.
