Please be nice it's my first I think the clown turned out good (for my ability) And can someone tell me how to remove extra paint. I tried nail polish remover but it didn't take all of it off.

Absolutely terrrrible mate. You really need to improve. Theres paint all over his body, not cool. You should mask off the areas you're not painting to avoid these mistakes. The beard is terrible as well. you painted (or sharpied) right over his mouth. Beards dont grow on lips ya know. The white painting looks ok, but you've done a god awful job of the black paint. Its chunky and not straight. Again, theres paint everywehre. You said the clown was ok, but it really isnt. You've got off streaks of paint everywhere. The boots painting is really bad. Its not even at all, again, bad stuff Just try to improve and then come back

Mhhhh its sure its your first but its terrible... take your time when painting put tape like this l l and paint in it to make straight line . try to clean your figure '' the face and body''.. put paint where its still blue and try taking your time when doing a custom..

Let's start from the top and go down..
The head- The beard is terrible. Way too thick. There is smudges on his head. Drybrushing on the beard would've made it stubble like and not just blah.
Torso and arms- TAPE OFF STUFF. Use tape to stay inbetween the lines and again, more smudges on the torso and hands.
Pants- I'm not a fan of doing full repaints and not taking apart the figure. You obviously didn't take apart the figure and didn't tape off the lines. Same for the kickpads.
If you're doing a repaint, literally, just repaint over one color at a time. Paint all the blue white, then go from there. I've hated nail polish remover for a while. I tried it when I was first breaking in and it never works. Sand off paint or just scrape it off with your finger nail.
Practice on older figures. Take apart the figures. Slow down. It looks like you took all of 10 minutes on this. Tape off parts and whatnot, so you don't go outside of the lines. Don't let people get you down. Everyone has their first customs and they aren't too good. Read the Custom Support Board, especially the FAQ. Study it like a textbook. It will help you out.

If that is supposed to be a custom of Paul London after rolling down a dirt mound then landing in mud, it is pretty good. I liked the idea, the attire and adding the beard would've looked good if done right, just practice, improve return, get compliments on your much improved work.

I suggest dipping the brush in water before dipping it in the paint, or simply slightly water down the paint, it shall give you a paintjob as smooth as some crappy cliche'. ~CMD
