Development is done in the UK. But you can bet production will be done in China. No way Greggo is painting the production figures.

Depending how many of each figure are made he's gonna need an extra set of hands!
If that is the case that he's painting everything then it's another good sign for the final quality of each figure....factory paintjobs can be so hit & miss.

Indeed....hopefully they'll use a factory with a decent track record as one guy doing all the production figures isn't exactly likely.

You guys are dreaming if you think one guy is going to be the production painter.

Ok so say he is not, which is likely ...what is he being paid for then?, is it just to paint the prototype figure they have in the official pics and for his paintwork to be used as guidance for the factory painters?

Precisely. That is how it works. For example, SilentSurfer paints the prototypes for Sideshow. The prototypes are taken to china and the factory manager's job to select a production paint app that can he done en mass.

Re: New Doctor Who 1:6 and 1:4 announcement!
I'd love the option to have the fig come with an unpainted sculpt and have it cost a little less so i could seek out my own painter, hell i would even go to the lengths of having the sculpt recast in flesh tone resin!...besides i really don't like the looking straight forward eyes that greggo painted, i always prefer eyes to be looking slightly upwards.

If Greggo were hand painting each one of these, the production would take forever unless they're only planning to do a run of 10-20.

Hey guys, I thought I would clear sone things up for you. As you are all aware I'm working for big chief on this project infact I have a lot to do with big chief am a very big part of them. I can confirm that I paint the prototype only that does include all the accessories as well! I paint 2 sets for them and then it gets send to the factories and they replicate the paint jobs! But it don't just stop there I will be over seeing and approving the deco samples and productions pieces as well! So I won't be painting all of them because that's just impossible I only have one pair of arms lol!
