Custom (sort of - just parts swaps) David Taylor to go with Steven Regal for the Blue Bloods. Used an IRS head.  |

Anyone here know what kind of paint or spray paint would bond well to rubber? I'm trying to repaint the rubber turnbuckles on a elite scale ring to red and want to also repaint the ringposts to black? Any suggestions or tips? I ask because rubber and acrylics bond differently than plastics and acrylics. You might want to try leather paint (paint for leather), it's designed to be flexible so it won't crack when the rubber flexes. Or mix some liquid latex into your acrylic paint. Another idea, coat the rubber piece with a layer of sealer (like Liquitex, Vallejo, etc.) then paint on top of that. |

Has anyone tried DDP's head for a good Kenny Omega custom? His figure is currently pretty cheap so fodder wouldnt be too bad.
I was thinking using shinsuke's legs or whole body and put a shirt on him.

Hey folks, any tips for a rich brown paint? I need to match the color on Ezekiel's body, but the brown I have is too desaturated. I tried mixing red and yellow into it but it still comes out desaturated.  |

I was thinking using shinsuke's legs or whole body and put a shirt on him. DDP looks like a good place to start for a Kenny head. If you don't want to resculpt the face, I think the best bet is to go with sunglasses and the thicker beard I saw to move away from the DDP likeness. |

Theres not a paint that is 100% like the plastic mattel uses. what store are you going to? I use Citadel paints which can only be bought online or at some hobby shops |

I can buy them online, I don't mind what brand, was just hoping for some first hand experience around here because the colors shown online aren't always the actual color of the paint

Unless you're a laser eyed perfectionist, Mournfang and Kislev are absolutely perfect for Mattel skin tones. |

I have a few shades of light skin from Formula P3, but i'll try Kislev when those run out. Also, what the...why is Citadel paint $6? That's nuts, I could just buy a 12oz spray can for that! I hope that's just price gouging from sellers. |

I hope that's just price gouging from sellers. Sadly that's what I paid as well on Amazon. I think they're priced at $4.50 on the Gameworks website, but I have no idea how much shipping is. I was able to justify the price on these 2 since they serve a very convenient, simple, and specific purpose for repainting heads. I'd rather have 2 specific bottles for that, than burn through my other paints doing mixes. The pricing is definitely rough on these things though. I really like their quality, but I can't see myself expanding my collection beyond a small handful of colors. |

Definitely worth it for the convenience I'm gonna see if any evilbay sellers will give a discount for buying a few at a time, I'm thinking the reason they're $6 is to cover the 2.60 for First Class shipping or whatevs |
