Damn, Kronik is awesome.... I don't know if you give any tips but if you do then please answer these few Q's..... Are your figures poseable?, how do you move the arms without the skintone paint chipping?(I know alot of people use superglue over the skintone but yours doesn't seem that way) and 2nd... I notice your figures are parted out when primered and then painted and then reassembled,,, how do you reassemble the arms with the pins and such without the skintone being messed up.? )do you use a hair dryer or something to heat the plastic/rubber to soften them to put them back together???/.. and as always, your skintone is incredible do you share the formula with other customizers or not? thanks. my figures are poseable everwhere except the waist. i seal my figures first than apply supeglue then wipe it off. careful not to get it in the joints. i use the boil and pop method for the assembly. also for the skintone i usually start with autumn or toffee brown and just add white, red, and/or terra cotta and mix until i get the desired color. there's no real science to it, just a lot of trial and error. keep in mind when you add sealer it will darken the colors a bit. hope this helps.

That "Evil" Crush is superb. It's probably a safe bet that it's miles ahead of what Jakks would have released.
What parts combo are you using to get figures like that one so much taller? It works great. It doesn't look like DA lower legs, but I've never seen RA parts used to make a figure that much taller.

this just proves how great JAKKS headscans really are...they are just poorly painted..but when you put them in the hands of someone who can paint (like yourself) they look amazing. That Benoit is extremely realistic.

Benoit looks amazing, the only problem I see is he seems a bit too tan

That's a sick Benoit, he's got a major George Hamilton tan, but it still looks great. I'd love to own a one of your pieces, but I am afraid it would make the rest of my Jakks collection look like crap standing next to them. I really love the Kronik set, but I am a little surprised you didn't modify Clark's hair to be slicked back. You did such a good job turning the open mouth into a grimace.

Great looking customs. The type of paint that you used really makes them stand out.
