Post Best Custom ever???
Well, that really is subjective isn't it. But sometime ago I sent Paul Kaiju a GID Kaws 5YL - and recently he sent me some photos. The results were so impressive that I wanted to wait until he was in my hands to see if he really was as amazing as he seemed.

Tha answer was, of course, yes. Check out the following pics and see if you agree:

Aren't we the lucky guy scoring on some beautiful customs lately?
Kudos to you and Paul. That's a stunner of one of my favorite figures. The glow just dies by itself and Paul brought it back to life and then some. I want a 5yl so bad.

This is gonna make you crazy, but have a guess where the blank Kaws 5YL came from?

:lol:HA!:lol:
I shoulda guessed!
Way to use that piece, Carl! :D
Well....how does he look in the dark, then, with this great new paint-up?

I'm still working on the piece that's comprised of all the opposite GiD parts....I'm very happy with how he's coming out, but it's slow going- a lot of re-sculpting involved. Getting to the point, tho, where I may post some teaser progress shots soon.....

Just so this makes sense for everyone, ungawa222 supplied my blank 5YL a while ago as a composite made from half a blue GID and half a green GID - so he glows in two different colors. I have not had him under a light source for long enough to charge him up, cos I didn't notice him glowing last night. Sure he will look rad.

Your resculpted guy sounds pretty amazing - look forward to the finished results!

Glad you and everyone digs it!

I know I miss it! One of my favorite projects probably ever.

I painted it at my girfriend's.

It was glowing an eerie blue in the hallway and she was afraid it would knock on the bedroom door in the moonlight.
