    Great pic, brickbat. That color way is my favorite to date.

    I'll score one of these beauties one day. :)

    I just have to echo Michael's comments. Great photo, favorite version. You captured those metallics and retained details in great fashion, Brick!

    Gotta call you out, man --- ruining your own incredibly sought after blank toy is one thing, but ruining it and then having the gall to try to flip it at over twice what Brent charges for one that he painted himself*, and barely more than a week after these beauties landed? Well, that is just unconscionable. Boo.


    *And sculpted, had produced, paid for, assembled, promoted and distributed, etc. Oh, and in the case of this release, designed and printed a special 1-off header

    EDIT: I done did write that instead of than. Fixed.

    Saw that as well and what a damn shame seeing how it was public information the unpainted version were not going to be widespread. Why do this?

    Nevermind I don't even want to know.

    I certainly didn't want to derail an awesome thread for an awesome toy.
    Yes I painted an unpainted version.

    I loved getting caught up in its story as I worked on it.

    Thought of an octopus virus creature with a beak attacking him and did his suit in a brass diving fashion.

    Obviously a few would have rather had it unpainted and feel they need to go after me. Sorry not sorry
    You attack me as someone out to make $ that is laughable... Please let's take it private or something.

    Not laughing.

    Sorry about the derail, Brent.

    I still don't think it's over priced, how much should custom paint work cost David? please inform us all.

    PLEASE I will post the figure on my custom page now, anyone so inclined can bash/scold me there.

    I think that paint job actually decreases the value of the toy.

    I'm sorry, but you and that other guy (truslithers or something) are terrible at this. It really hurts my eyes when i see some of toy you guys paint. Try to not go all crazy with the paint (less is more) and choose more colors that aren't so in your face.

    I'm trying not to be too harsh with you, cause you seem like a nice guy. I just think you have to look for a style that compliments the toy you paint and doesn't ruin them.

    Again.. please take the hatred to my thread, i'm sorry you dont like any of my custom work. Comparing my paint to Truslithers really does hurt, he uses f'n hobby lobby createx on everything! I experiment with lots of paint apps, some very subtle but AGAIN This is not the thread for tearing me down, use my custom thread.

    I just want to say one more thing, and then i'm done. You're right comparing to Truslither was a little bit harsh, but he was the first name that came up who's paint jobs i really dislike. My intention really wasn't to tear you down, but only to give you my honest opinion.
