Howdy! Javier Jimenez (Stickup Monsters) has put up a video of the Kaiju Paint Party that I had the pleasure to be involved with last month! As explained in the above video, the first day was a workshop where people could come and select a sofubi to paint and get instructions from PicoPico and others while a lot of us did custom paints on various figures for the next day. We had an open auction for the customs that were painted. Lots of great paints by amazing artists were made and good times were had! The debut of my Witch Cat Lulu soft vinyl figure sculpted by TTToy Makino was also made there!
