Not a fan of razors head but the rest looks good. Paint looks smooth. Did he ever wear blue or did you just make that up?

I wonder how the CS Sabu pants would look on a Mattel figure.

Could you tell us the Recipe for the Sabu? Awesome Figure Certainly, the recipe for my Sabu looks like this: Elite Barret torso (modified to take away some of the definition in the abs), bushwhacker legs (heavily modified, sculpted sash with a cloth insert in the back), and regular arms with sculpted wrist tape and the Toybiz TNA head. Thanks for the kind words, guys, more this week. |

I really love your work. You can see how much time and detail is put in to each custom. The painting is nice and smooth. And I like how you sculpt elbow and knee pads.
One thing I want to ask: Is there a particular reason why you don't paint the edges of the elbow/knee pads and boots? For instance, the top trim of HHH's elbow pad is flesh colored. Personally, I'd color that, but that might just be my preference.
Looking forward to seeing more.

Us Pinoys have to stick together  good observation on the trim not being painted there, mostly that is due to laziness, my friend. I've actually tried to deal more with that very issue in upcoming figures Stay tuned! |

Looks nice! What are you using to paint the skin? Is the final product durable, or does it scuff easily?

Thanks bro, so I just use a combination of different acrylic paints, usually consisting of a base of a store bought 'skin tone' and different browns and oranges mixed in to achieve a tan skin tone. Yes, they are fully sealed with all original Elite articulation still in tact |

There is a small margin for error when it comes to painting those spots while trying to avoid accidentally spilling onto the skin. Can't wait to see that Rhyno. I wanted to do one myself but was unsure about the parts since he has a unique build. Is that a Big E base that you used? If so, that is genius! Keep it up, my fellow Pinoy. |

I used an E26 Big E body with different arms and boots, I think I did a great job on this one and think it will look awesome with the modifications I am working on with his head. He should be up on here completed in about 2 days, along with 2 others. Thanks again bro! |

Yes, they are fully sealed with all original Elite articulation still in tact I'm a bit incredulous. It's easy to make a figure look pretty with paint, but very hard to make one durable and scratch-resistant, especially with acrylic. Could I scrape off that paint with my fingernail, or would it scuff up a white ring cloth or another figure if clashed? Can you explain your sealing process? |
