You did an amazing job with the colors and painting the sculpt... definitely the first Popsoda I've actually liked. If I could ask one question tho, why didn't you paint the logos on the front of the jacket?

That's usually my approach. It's actually worked a few times.

OK. I want to ask a real hard question...

Why would you paint your name (or handle) on the back of the figure? Why not just sign the bottom of the foot or something? Just seems so KR to me... Don't mean to be a dick. Just genuinely curious as to the thought process that led to putting it there.

Aside from disliking that one aspect... it is a great paint job. Dig the colors and fades. Great execution. Really, really clean.

The popsoda lettering on his face kinda has a psych 60’s feel.

I got around to spraying some custom vinyl figures. First one up is a Popsoda figure. I’ve always kinda dug this little dood. The popsoda lettering on his face kinda has a psych 60’s feel. I could do without the varsity jacket though. Airbrush on flesh colored vinyl figure.

The coloring looks very layered and the shifting is nice. The jacket back is my favorite part of it. Nice work!

Move aside youngsters! I've got "seniority(!)" Very nicely executed paint... stunning.

I love this sculpt and the paint job is top notch too. I think the PopSoda is underrated and never gets the love he deserves. As for the varsity jacket I think it works perfectly in contrast with the psychedelic feel of the letters on his face.

Whenever I see your work I remember all sorts of psych-influenced things from approx 1969-1973 that seem to be forgotten to time. That's a compliment by the way. It's cool that you saw the lettering in that Fillmore-poster way. It definitely has that hand-drawn groovy drippiness to it.
