 Re: new shit
No, my opinion is clearly the only correct answer. Rich, please change your mind to say that pin-striping would suck.

This figure has so much texture going on that it doesn't really lend itself to linework outside of what it already has. I bet Dead Prez would kill it though with his crazy paint techniques and textured layers.

 Re: new shit
Bleh... pinstriping adds nothing to the figures. Just a bunch of patterned randomness that only requires a steady hand.
I've yet to see where any pinstriping has been applied to any Japanese vinyl (outside of maybe cronic) where I felt the person applying the striping had a real understanding of the figure before laying down a bunch of doodle lines.

 Re: new shit
"Patterned randomness" is gods work my son. I believe the pinstripping is very sympathetic to the original sculpt and really make these three pieces sing! Along with the over the top paint work. But each to their own eh.

 Re: new shit
Yeah, I guess... just looks like the thought process was like "what will fit in here?... okay... and over here? uh-huh... did I cover enough of the body yet? No... little more... oh, I'll just fill it in with a big squiggly..."
