Greggo Customs and Paint jobs

[Andymp]

Great work Greg, keep it up!

 

[Greggo]

I hope you dont mind Keysta but I had a spare suit lying around so I put your custom on it to see how it looks. I hope you like it?

Also Keysta I having a real problem making the paint stay on the pegs for the hands it just keeps flaking off or wipping off. I have tried a lot of things and nothing is working.

Looks great Greggo! Hope the paint stays on my pegs! The way I plan to display my alien would have it showing.

 

[Greggo]

I'm trying to figure out a way buddy! So far I have tried 3 different things with no luck what so ever! It's the type of plastic they use and not only that it's because it has a lot of movement and contact with other parts arrrrrggggghhhhhhh lol

First thing first I don't mind that you post it. It's awesome...but now I'm kinda scare about the wrist pegs paint problem...I don't know maybe get some krylon spray paint or some type of paint that sticks to plastic and spray pegs the same blue and let it sit. If not then maybe I can find a solution here in NYC with their many art stores.

which suit is that?....well Magnus I know for a fact that the hands and pegs are from a Truetype just the Body is a TTL. Or maybe if Greggo stops playing with his wonderful creation and just be the artist we wouldn't have this problem now... greggo stop playing with our toys and paint.

Ha ha ha well I like playing with toys! I just wanted to show you, but don't you worry I will stop my fun and work like normal. So unfair

 

[Cheungkinmen]

That thing looks so freakingly COOL! haha. The suit I think it's a Wayne Suit.

I love how different this is from the norm, it's pretty much the direction I love to take with my figures.

Painting articualtion points is tricky. The friction of movement and sharp edges always scratch the paint off, at least that's been my experience. Not sure what could be done to keep that from happening.

That head reminds me of the monkey in toy story 3

@Platty What's it about?

Directed by John Carpenter(1988) A drifter discovers a pair of sunglasses that allow him to wake up to the fact that aliens have taken over the Earth. Good Sci-Fi flick starring Roddy Piper and Keith David.

Key you also forgot to mention it has one of the best fight scenes ever filmed!!!

I have the VHS but it was a gift I never watch it. I think I downloaded again on my PC somewhere and archived it to watch it some time later.

Now I wanna watch this
