So i just scraped away all the paint again and mixed my own flesh tone.
Bought a new set of paint and brushes...
He requested it to be carded so here...
It turned shiny because of the sealant.. kinda got jeff's wet look entrance.. ill look for a matte finish.
I just met up with our new member Mattaba this weekend and offered to help him ot with his custom Hardy...
So i got my foot in my mouth, lol
doing fixups is something but fixing up a custom is another story..
So there have been two existing layers of paint (white and red)
I attempted to remove the 2 layers (to the best of my ability) and here's what it turned out:
The head was already fixed up a bit, changed the face paint and added the beard.. repainted the hair a bit to bring out the "rainbow haired warrior" look..
here's what i did so far...
As you can see the paint is still a bit rough so i'll see if i can still use sandpaper on it, the paint chipped big time when i attempted to restore the poseability of the fig, so yeah, imma fix that up too...
Here's a close up of the head...
thats the closest i can get with the "glow in the dark" effect.
Still a whole lotta cleaning to do with the edges as well as the tattoo... no tattoo yet on the left arm as well as the holes on the sleeves.
I must say i'm 60% done on this custom... wow.. i hope i can still fix this up.. heheh...
So, I hope Matt is not shaking with what i did to his fig...
Tell me if we're stickin with white or red...
PJ, and loose, i'd appreciate some help here especially with smoothening out the paint.
