Comment, take a little more time with the paint. Thinner layers and more of them to smooth it out better.

[Knightmare]

thanks

[fatshadowmaster]

You are welcome. I have a hard time smoothing it out and that's the best thing I can figure to try. Besides laying on a layer and sanding it lightly then repeating many times until it comes out smooth. But who wants to do all that.

Also, if you want an easy method for some good looking paint learn how to drybrush. It's not for everyone but I like it.

how come cappy is shorter than wolf?
But that doesnt matter its still a nice custom

[fatshadowmaster]

Sculpting, duh.

(That plus the spiked boots on Wolf.)

Your photography has certainly improved; I have to agree it could be painted more cleanly, but the overall design of the figure looks great.

I'd almost like the next figure to be Samus/ZS Samus: Zero Suit Samus would be almost insultingly easy to make (start with a light blue Beta Female blister pack; paint head and hands peach or tan, or replace with pre-colored tan head and hands; then add the hairpiece from the Warrior with Dragon or the Windsurfer kits, sculpt on the side-bangs, add a pistol/whip, and that's basically it); it's Samus' armor that would be somewhat challenging.

That and they have been done before the game was released.

And those are just the 3 at Paintstik.

That ZS Samus looks incredible! The armored ones, though, don't quite look exactly right to me; not quite, I guess, bulky enough. I'd almost like to see someone engineer it so the armor can fit over the ZS Samus figure, although of course some pieces would have to be removed, such as the hairpiece obviously, maybe the hands, and the boots... The upper body would hopefully be one piece that slips over the figure's upper body and connects to the holes in the back, and the lower body be two pieces that socket into the pegs or holes on a belt piece. That's my concept, anyway...

Well they are having a helluva time getting the Eva Stikfas out of the factory so I don't imaging HQ would be able to produce anything like that.

But as for a custom it would be interesting to see. Lots and lots of sculpting would be required. And patience.
