KAWS the doctor is coming
Well I dont know if western customs are allowed here but its KAWS and he ownes a store in JP so.....
My KAWS 5YL mad doctor
This is farrrr from done.
The colors are very flat right now because they are dried oils do that if you dont use alot of linseed oil. I'm doing it in oils and once dried I will clear coat and then the colors will pop back out.
There is a LOT to go still including an apron so here are the brging progress pics.
More to come.... enjoy and let me know what you think so far..... o yeah the pics are very bright so you cant see the subtle pinks on the face. But when its done and the lighting is right for the photos you will see it better.

You got balls LASH. I don't think I could do that if I had a Kaws 5yl. Maybe It's just me, but I kind of like my expensive toys plain.

You guys make it soud like this was a million bucks....
It was a blue GID and I bought off the web site for retail so its not that bad. Not to mention the quality was horrible. I had to take him all apart and remove all the glue which had been applied wrong. Aswell as use magic sculpt to make the head as round as I could. It was flat in some areas ! So it looked like shit compared to the rest of the companions.
All in all a kind of crapy rush job for a companion if you ask me.
And this is for my personal KAWS collection so I dont feel I'm losing an expensive figure at all. Actually not losing anything but making something I will love.
Its just another canvas and its just paint. If I screw it up just remove the paint and try again. But I'm not worried as its coming out great so far.
