Post Playing with v-color
It was a beautiful day today in West by God, so I decided to airbrush for the first time with V-color today. This is the result:

I like how it turned out, but I had some splatter issues (which I fixed by troubleshooting my brush) and some trouble re-assembling arms, so this guy is destined to be stripped and repainted (hopefully tomorrow!) Please let me know what you think. Also, does he need some red, or possibly hand painted gold? Let me know! -Brad

Are the white parts just the flash?
It looks pretty cool if those parts were highlighted.
Great job on your first paint.

There's no white, it's all just camera flash. It's not my first time using an airbrush, just the first time with v-color, and I haven't used my ab in a while. Thanks for the comments though!

Your Chaos looks good penny. The color combo is really nice. Can't wait to see what you do next.

I also like the color scheme, looks very "underwater" to me.

I don't think anything is wrong with using a paint brush. I just think once you start spraying, keep spraying..If your going to use a brush just use a brush on the whole figure..This is just my opinion,I just think it looks better one way or the other.. :wink:

Thanks for all the comments guys! I like using dyes too........ I guess they're forbidden here! I'd like some more solid figs too, especially head, evil, and bigaro

There's only a few things forbidden here, dyes are not one of them. Otherwse Locomoco would be doomed :D.
I have 1 chaos that I've been painting but personally, I'm getting tired of seeing Chaos. Did anyone buy other KT Solid figures to paint? I have the walking Hedoran waiting to be finished and a Bako waiting to be started.

I didn't get any other solid figs, because I like to stick to a few things, and the more sculpts I start to get the more I'll be buying of that sculpt. I do have this chaos to redo, another chaos to do, a mutant head to be painted, a skuttle (I know everyone here hates them), and 2 hukkokudo zags that I'll be painting. I would like to get some of the mini zags though!
