    all these are nice. The Borg is killing me! I think that's the first Borg custom I've seen.

    Awesome!
    In my mind this will forever be known as the "Gram Parsons Visighost."

    Reeeeaaally nice work on the Visighost, Bert- I gotta say, it's my fave of all the various custom and productions versions of this toy I've seen.

    And good call, plastichunter, on dubbing it the Gram Parsons Visighost! Perfect! :D

    Gram Parsons...I had to look him up and while I really don't listen to Country music, I do see a bit of Country in the figure. The figure is more based on religion than Country but then that's kind of the beauty of it all. Each person reads into it their own meaning. Anyway, I just did a header for the Chaos so...

    Love the ghost story too.
    When did you snag the GID Visighost?
    Never seen that before.
    Nice work.

    Had to make a GID Visighost. I poured paint inside the figure. Its kinda tricky to get even but I'm starting to get the hang of it on the smaller figures. On full sized figures like Visighost, I haven't been able to judge it right just yet. Airbrush is a brand new medium for me. I haven't even painted a dozen figures so I'm slowly getting the hang of it. Painting clear or glow figures is tough because it can show unevenness in your painting. I wish I had a black light so I can take some pics of the GID figures in the dark :(

    You made it! That's thinking!!!
    Let's bug Glenn & Brian to make a run of 'em
    and you'll be able to keep any more clears that come your way! Haha.
    Nice work bro. The last time I wanted a black light I think I just bought a black light bulb for Home Depot or some other hardware store.

    That Gargadeath is great. I really really want gargamel to come out with one with a suit. It just looks so awesome.

    Finally got a light for the GID. Thanks Gizzy!! Took a pic of my blue zag. It's on the first page...check it out ;)

    Lee, I'm sure Brian has a GID Visighost lined up. It is just a matter of time when it will make it's appearance....or at least I hope there's one lined up :D

    Bert, you just keep getting better and better!

    I like the pink fade on the visighost.

    I think that skullman/hone borg colorway should be coined, ...wait, are you LASK, or BASK? the "_ASK colorway". That's awesome.

    The GID looks sweet as hell bert!
    The story of the lamps sounds vaguely familiar but I can't quite remember it.
    Wasn't there a chara on Final Fantasy like that?

    glad you like the light :mrgreen: new led tech rocks! screw maglites hehe
