Oh what I would do for a chance to do a small run of "Plague" roses. hint hint  No serious  yeah but I think those days are over the glowruru was limit 1, I did not try for the rainy steven was he limit 1???any of the roses I tried to order after the red got nixed down to one,which is cool gives way to the thrill of the hunt if I want one to paint or strip into a proto

 Re: Pink GID Rose Vampire
Don't take it as anything. It's a pretty good split of people here who are into customs and those who prefer official releases. So far its been live and let live with regards to customs so I see no problems.

I can't believe it's not butter is not butter but it tastes pretty good on a muffin, and I hope that is not hate I hear because I remember seeing a few roses at it came from skullbrain 2 there is a huge difference between using an unpainted white and stripping a toy and calling it a "proto". Don't cross that line.

 Re: Pink GID Rose Vampire
you can always tell a stripped figure, as it looses just a bit of the surface luster, as the paint used actually bonds with the vinyl, so you essentially stripe off the top most ayer of the vinyl, leaving a slightly more uneven surface behind it.
There is no good answer on to customize or not to customize, as we all collect for different reasons.
Keep it trill.

 Re: Pink GID Rose Vampire
proto was not the best thing I could have said, but when you have slipped you have slipped, naked would have been better, I do not like to say unpainted as it implies vinyl "NEEDS" to be painted to be a success, when a lack of paint can show of a sculpt just as well or better in some instances as far as I am concerned, especialy with as strong of a sculpt as the rose vampire
