This is awesome! I really want one these.

awesome! must get one.

very interesting...

yeah that's sweet, I'll get one.

Very impressed with a full shot of the toy. So the first 2 versions will be clear orange vinyl or just clear ?

I'm glad you guys are digging it

All the pictures so far have been of test shots, which are made to check the mold and molding process and are generally made in whatever color vinyl is left over in the factory. The smoke clear and clear orange are not production pieces, they're just one-offs. The first two versions will both be in clear vinyl, but will be painted.

I'm going out next Monday to pick up the figures, so I should have something ready to show you by late next week in terms of paint apps...

Got a nice big box in the mail this morning and got a chance to try out my new respirator right afterwards...

Should have some good pictures to show you guys later on tonight!

fargin' sweet dude

Get painting, I'm really intrigued to see what it will look like.
Congratulations!!!

i just stumbled on to this thread. congratulations on making your own toy. it's a crazy process but very rewarding. good luck.

I had so much fun painting this today; I hope you guys like it! I give you...


BECHIGON
TURBO LOVER VERSION







Edition of 15, handpainted. On sale at SuperFest later this month!

Give me a couple of days and I should have the paint scheme for the first online version nailed down!

F'ing beautiful! From a previous picture I was an immediate fan of the way you handled the top of the head. Seeing it painted up, it looks even better. The details look great and I like the contrast between the dark metallic (?) and the magenta. Really nice choices.
Congratulations and good luck with Bechigon!

Really nice. Respect for Bechigon. Great 1st version, i like how from every angle an eye stares back at you. Is the 'turbo love' version only black spray ?

Thanks for the feedback! This version is actually on clear vinyl with a neon pink inner spray, blue metallic outer spray and black details. Its a little bit hard to see in the photos, but I think its a cool effect in person.

hats off to ya man. i want this version.

Outstanding! For me, this kind of accomplishment seems like a distant dream.

I really hope one of these finds it's way to my shelves one day....

Superb work, Ricky- great color choices!
Until seeing this pic, I somehow hadn't grasped that the raised base of the sculpt lends it a sweet "hovering" quality.

I hope these do really well for you, man!

holy shit the painted is sick!!

Nice. It looks like it's flying in some angles.

yeah these colours look hot!

Been staring at the sneak peaks a bit more and the metallic blue has caught on.

this bechigon really does look quite amazing...!!!

congrats on finally getting this beautiful octo-spore out to the rest of the world...!!!

Very cool congrats on getting that going.

Rad! congrats!
I've been reading this board since it's inception, and it is great to see fellow Skullbrainers flourish the way you have.
Your living the dream!
