Post 1st custom RxH
here it is :)

This is my first custom RxH. All done in V-color. I'm very happy with the outcome on this little fella :)

What do you guys think ??

The white looking areas is actually silver. Its super reflective, if you look right above the feet thats not red. Its the silver refecting of the top of the feet !!

V-color is amazing paint !

Very nice first attempt... I like the colors on the face a lot, and the belt is really cool.

So what colors did you use for the red areas? Bright Red? Flourescent? I kinda looks like it has some pink in it too...

Keep it up... :D

I like the color scheme the hand and hands look good.

I would drop the painted circles on the back and the chest is uneven to the point of being distracting.

Nice fist try.

so when you guys paint these figures, do you keep them intact with all the arms and head still on or do you take them off and paint separately?

nice LASH! Keeping with the RxH paint style but yet having your own creepy style thrown in. I'm very impressed and that colorway would look so nice on a production piece. Maybe fluorescent green eyes?

very nice colors.. i dunno if i'd rather have the eyes colored, although the black has a cool effect making it look like a mask. and you have to touch up the silver on the legs.

pretty darn nice for a first time though... especially on an evil mutant

The red is the refelection of the feet. The silver is VERY reflective, there is no red on it its solid silver there. Amazing right !!

V-color is great piant.

After I looked at the butterfly tha looks like mine I kept on looking. Butterflys have such beautiful pattens that will work so well. Great unexpected inspiration !
