Jumping on the movie repaint bandwagon, I decided to pick up one of the Deluxe figs to repaint. I almost wasn't gonna bother with any of the movie figs, but I actually really like this little fella! I'm taking a little creative licence with the colours, but I think he's looking pretty cool so far.
The finished repaint will be going up on the 'Bay...

Ugly little git isnt he? But i guess thats part of his appeal as i want one.

How much do you reckon you will get for him on ebay?

Like the colors and brushing. Looks really nice. Like to see what you do with the rest of him.'
'Specially the..well...do I even have to say it? My sig explains it all.

Yarr. He's an ugly bugger, but there's something about him. Actually, when I was Googling for reference/inspiration pics, I found this sig gif, which makes me love him even more...

I have no idea how much to expect for him, really; but if it turns a half-decent profit, you can bet I'll be doing more...

I'm surprised that Gif doesn't say walnut's. Or Sherade.

This is really looking great.
Can't wait to see the finished thing.
I've always loved him, despite his uglyness. Looking at him all painted in pretty colours makes me really hate the Hasbro paint job XD

Glad you're liking. I think most people are unloving of the Hasbro paintjobs in general, if we're honest...

Oh, and Wheel_Jack... I'd like to do one for myself, but unfortunately money's way too tight at the mo. I would have had trouble justifying buying this fella if I wasn't gonna sell it straight on...

If you sell the freaking thing for 3200 bucks you wont have to worry! 8-|

Indeed so. I don't think most custom sellers are getting quite that lucky, but hell, it's worth a try...

I dont see how anyone could to be honest, no matter how good you are.

Ive seen stuff on there that IMO is alot better, no offense to the original guy who this convo is based around, yet it doesnt even reach half that amount.

Its a bit unreal...
