    Not only is this the wrong place, but the wrong message board entirely. You're thinking of the Kidrobot forums for stuff like this

    Painting it yourself would have been a better option.

    I really like lamour's style and he is great using a spray gun, but this looks sub par from him. I hope he didn't charge you crazy money for something that looks so half assed.

    And yeah, it's going to be a though sell here. Good luck.

    The lack of actual white coverage on the shirt disrupts this quite a bit for me. And, as mentioned before, the zigzag hair on the back looks awful. I do like the faces on both heads, though.

    dang, I'm sorry man but that looks rough.. I know everyone is proud of their customs, but it is not a great application. As said above, I am hoping he didn't charge you a ton.. Not sure what is going on with the sharpie hairline... :|

    I think its a bit literal... the zig zag kind of ruins it for me. Would it be redundant to say this sort of custom isn't going to open any doors for you around here?

    I do like how someone instantly assumed you came here to sell it, gotta love skullbrain :lol:

    Im the only one using the word 'sell', so im assuming you mean me. I meant the idea of the toy, regardless of maker, is going to be a hard thing to get to stick here, given that the Simpsons are a western franchise and very strongly connected to KR stuff. ;)

    While yes, the connection can't be denied, that statement isn't necessarily true. NT's jaw-dropping collection in this thread was well received (and rightfully so):
    viewtopic.php?f=17&t=34678

    I think the real issue here is with the "quality" of this particular custom.

    I'm stunned that he painted this. It looks absolutely nothing like anything he's done.

    I don't own any of his work but I love his illustrations, art, "guts" customs.

    This I really don't get.

    Ive stripped and repainted a few Lamour customs, due to unhappy customers, or scratched paint.

    I am definitely however a fan of his drawings and prints.

    Well, it will be a first for me to say something like this here on SB, but this 'custom' deserves it:

    This is without a doubt, the worst painted figure I have ever seen posted here. Lazy, sloppy and over-literal all around. WTF... I feel bad for you even if you only paid $20 for that thing... :|
