Question about customizing NECA TMNT....?

psychoandy · 03-11-2011, 02:51 AM

I was recently commissioned to repaint a set of NECA TMNT into the 1988 Playmates colors. I have yet to do any NECA TMNT customs, so I wanted to ask those of you who have worked on them before:

How much more effective is disassembling the figure before painting, if at all? Would you recommend doing this, or is it an extra, unnecessary step?

Generally I'm not interested in painting each individual piece and re-assembling a figure, but my client wants to be able to pose and re-pose the figures on his shelf, without too much chipping. Considering he's paying me, I want to give him what he wants, y'know?

Thank you in advance for your help!
