Silver was spray paint
Brown & Flat Black are Tamiya

I mostly use Tamiya on everything

JPP 08-16-2012 03:14 PM

I really like what you did with Raphs sai's. The gold on the end really makes those stand out.

TMNT-Collector 08-24-2012 06:43 PM

amazing work, love the weapons

Scud 08-24-2012 07:14 PM

Agreed that the weapons look awesome, but what really does it for me is the teeth. That small subtle detail adds so much.

Personally I'm not a fan of that much dirt, but to each their own. They came great.

Thanks, I think it helps separate them from the rest

Thanks, I guess maybe the way I took the picture of them by themselves helps show them off.

Try washing your figures in the sink w/ Palmolive/Ajax/Dawn before you paint them!

Thanks! Jewelry chains, but my secret is which set I get. They are of a certain style that resemble real life chains.

The bandannas are a AWESOME dirty red. The camera & photoshop color correct + my lighting didn't quite capture what the human eye sees. The pictures do make them look dark

Thanks! Order up!

The Purple Dragon 09-29-2012 04:30 PM

Lampy 09-30-2012 10:52 PM

well....not much, just try different things. Most people just clear coat them and let them sit for 4 days before using them.

thanks! I like the bloody knuckle idea I've been using, my thought was that they were beating the sh*t outta the foot w/ their bare hands.

gunstarheroblue 11-04-2012 12:17 AM

wow!
 
simply breathtaking- palmolive on the figures and weapons before you apply any colors? definitely trying this... Awesome Pro-work dude:)

EPIC! That's all I can say man just plain epic!

QuickSix 04-05-2013 07:55 PM

You can lightly sand the shells so the paint sticks.

QuickSix 04-06-2013 12:57 AM

Cool figures!

slaysghosts 04-08-2013 10:09 PM

Hey guys, thanks for the compliments!

Sadly, I don't have anything new to post lately, been busy making custom decals for all our Ghostbusters fans out there! But everything goes in waves, once I'm done w/ designing those I'll want to put a brush back in my hand!
