Thank you for your efforts during a trying time for you.

I have a few of the Son Of God Figures.  There all in good shape.  The ones I've seen on E-bay lately usually have a lot of paint missing.
Whats it cost to get one of them painted?

i happen to have lost photos of the finished pieces (unless they're on my old laptop) so both of the figures lack the matt / gloss varnish.
if i find the lost photos, i'll upload them here.

all my models are painted with acrylics.


Hynerpeton

Acrylics work well on plastic then?

yes, i'd say they're the best option.

Thanks as well, you've really inspired me to do some repaints myself though they'll never be as good as yours ;)

Hynerpeton

I am going to learn and give repaint a try.

Tamba Sauropod, Favorite Soft Model
this was a commission.






postsaurischian's collection thread has more photos (scroll down)

Tyto_Theropod

Great paint job as usual! I love that sculpt with the colours you gave it - it looks how I always imagine a sauropod should: not a lumbering rhinoceros-coloured swamp-dweller, but not a psychadelic product of speculation gone slightly crazy with huge dewlaps and quills everywhere. Just very natural looking, like it could just start breathing and calmly walk across your desk ;)
