Dug my old BRJ head out a couple days ago and popped it on the DX body, which I'd been meaning to do for a while but never got around to. Touched up the paintjob to his "clean" look. Honestly forgot how good this head sculpt really is underneath the horrendous factory paint job they stuck us with.

 

[ZaCHw117]

Wow- amazing repaint!

 

[cokebabies]

Yeah, great repaint.

Damn guy, that's awesome! *waits for someone to inevitably ask if you do commissions*

 

[cr0w]

Haha, thanks. I hadn't repainted an HT Joker in a while, I forgot that with this guy you have to throw technique and finesse out the window. I'm used to lightly dry brushing textures and such onto my human figures, and it just wasn't working out, so I just said ____ it and caked on the white paint. Turns out it fits.

 

[ZaCHw117]

Do you take commissions?

 

[intothevoid]

very nicely done dude!

 

[cr0w]

no, I don't. I lose all interest the second it becomes work.

 

[Voorhees27]

Looks awesome cr0w.

 

[Gipetto0812]

I like your repaint, but aren't you the guy that's always saying custom paint never looks as good as factory paint? Pretty sure I've read that from you countless times...

It's cool to see the BR head with the clean makup. Don't think I've seen that before.

 

[mishu2nite]

That repaint looks way better than what dx11 brings!

I'm the guy that says it's hard to find someone who can improve enough on factory paint (nowadays at least) that's worth how much money custom painters charge. The biggest problem I have is when someone makes a custom head, casts it in cheap resin or plastic which is either gray or white, then another customizer does an entire paintjob on the head. It almost inevitably ends up looking like a toy. If the custom is cast in translucent resin and the painter can forego the flesh tone coat and go straight for the details, it's a much better process. Unfortunately, even then you only have a few people that can legitimately pull off factory-level paints. And by that I mean the paints we get now from HT. Almost any customizer can improve on what we got when BRJ came out.

Horrendous? That was State of the Art back then, baby.
