Hi there!
Thanks for checking out my custom's thread! Straight off the bat I'm going to say that I have never made any "real" customs before. Besides painting a few Gundams, I don't have much experience, but I try my best! 
Enjoy! |

This is probably a cake walk for most of you guys,  but I put a lot of work into him and I like how he turned out!
Anime Style Piccolo
He's about 95% done, I just have to touch up a couple spots and give him a dull coat. I realize I could have made his shoes a bit more orange-y but I went for a darker look, and I like that more.
Also, I have to give a big thanks to cleve5sp and Adz for helping me choose the colors! |

Branjita 1andonly5711 Are you guys on mobile? For some reason the same thing happens to me when I go on my phone, but when I click the link on my computer it works fine. I'll try to upload the pics to the thread. And yep this is my first venture into the world of customizing! |

Awesome Little! That purple did come out really nice. The customizing bug is worse than the Figuarts collecting bug (IMO)...  |

 Very clean paint job! I'm impressed. Keep it up. Have you begun sculpting anything? |

Wow that means a lot, thanks! Nope I haven't tried one bit of sculpting on anything yet. I think I'm going to try a Gogeta in the near future though. We'll see!

I need some tips on sculpting pecs and abs. They never look quite right...

Don't make them flat Sculpt them individually. By that, I mean, if you want to sculpt a six pack, sculpt them one by one, not one big mass and trying to separate them. Once all six are place, you can do the blending. Same for pecs. |

Adrenaline What go you think? These abs came out best so far, and it's really good compared to my other attempts! Anything I should fix? Gogeta WIP

Those look pretty good! As long as they're symmetrical too.

I can see how this turns into an addiction. Now where do I start? He's still a WIP but he's close to being finished. Although... The head still needs a ton of work to be done. I gave up on my other one because it was too much of a pain to try and paint over black hair. What was I thinking!  The chest and vest parts need detail, so does the shoes and belt too. I also have to touch up a bunch of spots all around. I'm happy with how it's turning out though. Oh and sorry for the cruddy picture. I need to get a better camera!  |

Wow Little G, this is awesome. The vest looks great and from what I can tell, you did a great job on the pecks and abs. Well done man!

From what I can see, he looks pretty good to me. If you do as good of a job on the head as you've done on the body, he should turn out just fine.

I agree. The body looks pretty much done and well done. Vest is fine. The head still needs work obviously and could make this a really great looking custom once complete. You know what you're doing, so do what you got to do, but if I can suggest anything, straighten out the lines of the eyes. It bothers me so much that Bandai made them so rounded lol A lot of customizers skip this step, so yours can be better now  |

but I put a lot of work into him and I like how he turned out!
