I love this skullwing bar its insanely white teeth. I think they should have been left unpainted, the GID marbling though is perfect

I feel the same- I wish the choppers were toned down/hit with some browns and yellow washes.

These look awesome for sure. It's cool that even though fight figure production has slowed to a crawl, the ones that are coming out are exceptional.

Hmm, I don't know how I feel about the paint on these... But this gives me hope for NYCC skullwings!

Look at my teeth they will hypnotize you.

It's a nice wing otherwise.

I was thinking the same, I really don't understand why you would want to paint these in the first place. If I ever score one I'll definitely consider giving him an acetone bath.

Not sure, I hope to eventually see one in real life and decide then... I find these are great toys unpainted, can't really see the need to add paint to a marbled glitter gid but just my pov... Judging by the shots I kind of agree with some of the comments above, those teeth imo could've remained unpainted.

Y'all talking crazy!

In the scheme of things the marbled and unpainted angle is a new phenomenon for 'em. The vast majority of production Wings for the last 8 years have all had painted teeth!

Just be thankful for a new incarnation and embrace the paint . . . if yer get chance!

Yeah I also like them. It's staying true to the classics. All general release skullwings have painted teeth, including the rainy day one which in most case come completely unpainted.

If I got one of these, I would repaint the teeth in super-realistic, rotty/stained fashion. I think that would look great with the rest of the figure.

/End Andy-inflaming crazy talk.

I'm not against the paint I just think it could have been toned down, I think the same about quite a lot of toys I see, more of an ivory white would have suited this I think. I still like it though glitter, GID and marbling works really well, even with all those elements its still quite subtle.

Post Re: New Secret Base
i dont want to be laughed out of this forum (since i dont have a say in the collecting scheme round these parts)

but do you think this resembles the root beer float or whatever unpainted skullwing(andy superfest 57?) ? granted, this is marbled with GID and it has painted teeth (which i like)

DISCUSS!

Great pic, Andy, and I admit that MANIMAL was very talented, but try tracking him down to have him paint a Skullwing today- he’s damn nigh impossible to find!
I’ve even heard rumors that he was, against all odds, faded



( :twisted: :lol: Couldn’t resist… but seriously, I’m with you… HAIL PUS!!!)

Yep, sure does to me Michael... which I don't think is a bad thing though, considering the added glitter and GID (can't remember if the andy you're referring to was also gid)
