Must get Zag, Deathra, Damn & Chaos.

Yup....that white chaos kills it!!!!!!! Get your airbrushes ready!!!!!!!

fuck yeah!! Cheap Blanks for customs from different manufacturers!!

Since we all buy V-Color from KT as well, this is a stroke of genius on Taro's part...

I'm sure all the customizers out there will be getting messages from people to 'do them a solid'

I really dig the concept and also the fact that it's opening up a bigger bridge between designer-product-consumer. This will also create/motivate a new area of collecting too and gives a chance for the collectors to try out something new (without competition). I also believe that the best customizers will possibly get a deal to get it a proper release, this will put collectors onto a whole new and previously unimaginable experience. There are so many different ways this can develop and I am truly excited and congratulate KT for this ingenious idea. This also brings the brands together on the same level, and I am happy that many brands I love are getting into this idea.

We really need a different customizing section on this forum to help the newbs like me to ease into doing our own versions. I can imagine there are lots of short cuts, links, books available for this kind of thing. Can't wait to see how this all develops.

True dat!



I agree that a matte version would be cool. The Gargamel among these do look shinier than the Chaos, but if you want your Chaos matte, it's easy - acetone on an unpaint will generally take off the gloss. (It will also leave the piece more susceptible to yellowing, so 303 Aerospace would be advisable.) This is one reason one can't strip paint with acetone and have it look like an 'original unpaint' sculpt - the acetone takes off the glosscoat along with the paint.

I only want the zag and chaos. Can someone in NYC or just anyone add those to their order. We can split on shipping and you can order multiples.

one thing that sucks is that i have a bunch of deathras, zags, pharaos, and damns that i'd been meaning to paint but haven't got to... and now they're way cheaper. doh!

Maybe someone at KT can get Hiddy to throw some white diy Skull Captains and Skull Pirates in the second (assuming there is a second) series of these.

Could not have said it better myself. I can see the top customizers doing limited "pirate run" with custom header cards etc. The price makes it more doable. KT just made history. I ordered a Damnedron and a Chaos. I was going to order multiples but it says on the KT website that they will restock if it sells out. How perfect is that?! A ready stock when you need it. DANGNGNGNG!!

Nice!

Thank you very much for the info! Very good to know!

how new of an idea is this? shitty companies and their platform toys have been been selling DIY blanks for years already.

{sarcasm]and yes, a new forum is exactly what this place needs along with more awesome customs[/sarcasm]

at least i wont be fucking up production pieces now - u GOTTA be happy about that right?

if youre still painting, what's to be happy about. you GOTTA agree

hahahaha - you so craaazeeey

Hey if anyone is going to order some of these please hit me up, I'd like to get a few but I've never dealt with KT before and would like the help of someone with experience.

Not to naysay I agree that this is a stroke of Jesus on Taro's part as well. But honestly I dont think anyone's going to sign a deal on the strength of customs alone. I can think of maybe 4 people in the western scene who got to do production toys from their custom work and they would've gotten toys on the strength of their art/design in the first place.

There are custom boards out there that are well documented as a place where garbage is the coin of the land, but this idea is a great sandbox for people to have fun with. And for collectors of mono colorway toys.

a shit man - i already placed an order


its real easy - they use PAYPAL only - and the form to fill out is real simple


use www.xe.com as a currency translator to give you a sorta idea what the price will be


pm me with questions

...must...resist...easy...jokes...

take the bait take the bait - hahahaha

wonder how many PK and LASH bought. going to be great to see what comes out of this.

Does anyone have the Tamiya airbrush that they have for sale? Is it worth $140 or is there a better airbrush in that price range?

Make me wanna start painting toys again for sure

Dude you should. You've got your own header cards! I was just admiring your blue Blobpi last night.

This board is full of painters, we got like 4 times as many as there were last year this time easy... but you never know, keep watchin the skys.
