 Tribute to the Original 5 Flavors: 1st Kaiju-Custom-13 pics
Started life as a Red Bagman
This is my 1st Kaiju-style custom. I don't have an airbrush yet so this was done completely with dyes & silver leaf:

I didn't get it at first but love the progression.
Are you almost done. I like the red, yellow, black, and silver combo.
Congrats
Ike

solid. the basic red, yellow, black transition has a very classic look, and the bag is the best part! the flaky gold/silver or what not makes it look very brutal, like battle scars! thumbs up!

actually, it's probably my monitor too. i can never seem to set the colors right. there has been many times that i have bought toys and then got the things in the mail and thought that i was sent the wrong one. if i really want to get something now, and definitely want to know what it looks like, i check it out on my wifes labtop first.  Nonetheless, I dig it yo!

i love it but actually think i would have loved it more if you left the bag clear red...maybe even tried dying/dipping it halfway. great job.

Yeah, but there was no way around it...that's why I prefer leaving the bag off. I had considered not doing anything w/ it, but for "completeness'" sake, you know. No brushing, just ultra-steady hand dipping, this particular vinyl didn't want to grab the dye unless it was super-hot. I have other ideas for some dye jobs, though!
