 Re: Biliken Shokai- Grim Reaper?
Other than the mouth (reminds of Sky Deviler) I really like the sculpt! The paint job is okay.

 Re: Biliken Shokai- Grim Reaper?
It's ok. Some parts look very clean and refined, I guess mechanical and sculpted with the precision you would expect for a robot. Then other parts look a little crude like the vents on the body and the top of the face. I don't think the styles mesh well. Would have liked it to be either super clean or all somewhat crude. Love the paint though.
