I call tonight's paint work the "procrastination special" because several of these figures I started painting twelve years ago and never finished them!
The mfs gashapon is just as annoying to paint as I remember. If I don't water down the paint, I lose details a lot, so it's taking hours. The larger Puar and Oolong are from the Academy model kits and were originally unpainted, glossy plastic. The Krillin IF Labs customs are only a couple of years old and I am going to finish them up eventually.

Not really, but at least the bootleg doesn't look like a total piece of crap anymore. The paint was so, so bad. I'll review the figure in a little while and probably just call it done and start the bidding at 99 cents. I don't want to do a super professional paint job on a bootleg I probably won't get more than $5 for. He's Real Works scale and not many people collect that in America.

Spent a few hours painting tonight. Nothing much to say... just making progress on a bunch of stuff that's close to finished and a bunch of stuff I am preparing to sell.

Can't wait til you tackle a major custom. Recoome or Ox King or Frieza 2nd Form........

I dunno, $30 to $40 at least since similarly sized Banpresto stuff is around there as a starting price. All I'm doing is adding two fresh layers of paint since he was painted by me back in 2003. I'm also going to add some clear to him to protect the paint, which he does not currently have.
That Nappa I consider finished. And since I am going to start him at like $2 on eBay, I am not going to waste $1 worth of clear on him.

Finished 4 characters for my collection and 4 characters for sale. Spent most of the day painting instead of working because of bad weather. I'll take individual pics of them tomorrow probably.
