Post 1st Skull Bee Custom
I have to admit to being inspired to pick up some paint after seeing some of Paul Kaiju's recent customs. I have bought a bunch of airbrush stuff, but realize I have a long, long way to go before I start using it to paint figures.

Out of a desire to get moving I just picked up some brushes and took to this Black and White Skull Bee. I still need to clean up a few spots where paint collected and then seal it, but I like it so far.

Let me know what you think.

Wow, thanks everyone for the feedback. Glad to hear you all like it. I really like the eyes too. And Paul - I won't fear the airbrush. I just realize its going to take some time to do the things I imagine I can in my head.

I'll definitely post pictures after I get it cleaned up and finished.
