Robert and Minion..  Did you guys paint yours, or if not who did? 

I love seeing these kits painted and finished.  They are really cool!

No doubt; each one is just fantastic.  I'd love to have one of these kits.

I did the painting on my Prince mask ad kit.  I'm far from great at model painting, but I was happy enough with the end result.  I have a cousin who studies AMAZING FIGURE MODELER magazine and the David Fisher tapes (David is a genius--and a really nice guy, too), and he tries to paint "the way it should be done"--but I grew up just wading in and slapping the paint on, and trying for some detail work, too.  I admire the heck out of the perfectly painted models at Wonderfest--and then go right back to painting stuff my own way!  Hard headed me.

I think it came out real well, Robert.  I'm with you though...  I've had pieces painted by the really good painters out there, but mostly I just get some Testors and a brush and have fun.  :D

Not sure I ever really graduated from the Testors & Aurora model at 13 yrs old stage of model painting!  But that's what I tell my cousin, who worries and frets and moans over not getting just the right color or the right effect--I do it fast and have fun, and I'm the one who has to look at 'em when I'm done!  As long as I'm happy, it's a success!  But I am gonna get color inside those cubicles in my display--what a difference it makes on the others shown here!
