Most of the stuff I do yes, especially when I sculpt on it or create something from scratch. There is meaning behind a lot of my work. But this thread is about Deadbeats so I wont post more about this here.

Come out to the show SATURDAY May 4th. Think there's a cool show at TAG and a couple others as well? Good time to be in LA. This is the first run of 'Beets painted by Scott himself I believe. Cool that he let others have a crack at 'em even before he got to!! Should be some other Beet goodness at the show as well.

 Re: Deadbeet
Mark's paints are so expert and beautiful. It's just a shame his artistry is wasted on this figure. Fans of his work should check out his Maxtoy webstore.

 Re: Deadbeet
You know what's funny about this is Mark's probably getting less than $100 a piece. After you pay for the piece of vinyl and putt a little on for your own time and double it to account for the gallery/retailer spilt it's super easy to get over $200. I'm actually surprised it's not more. In most cases I would have had to charge more. I really like these too. Good for Mark!!!!

 Re: Deadbeet
Mark charges like $150-200 for custom negoras which are his own toy, and not even half the size...so i dont see the issue?

In most cases when you do a run for a buddy you get very little, so it has to be a labor of love or a truncated version of what you'd usually do. Mark brought his "A" game to these. They will most likely sell out in a heart beat beet anyway.

Mark did a great job on these beets. Hopefully I'll get a chance to see one in person.

 Re: Deadbeet
With people using the same spray patterns, one never knows who paints what. It's a guess game these days.
Andd those zombie veggies look like a clothing line rejected by mishka. Interesting idea, its just feels way to forced.

 Re: Deadbeet
Hey Gatiio - here's a better pic (not an instagrammed shot of the Hyper Hobby spread). Can't really say that I see much of the other paint applications in my own paint, but opinions are allowed to vary. Clear vinyl - neon and metallics and handpaint details. I like details - I try and make them stand out. "Neon Golden" Deadbeet! by rampage.toys

 Re: Deadbeet
hey, JMRampage,
I usually can spot your paints a mile away, the cannibal fuckface for example, has those tones that I connect to your style. I just cant see that on this guy.
Neat, clean work, I just couldn't place it with some of your other works that have popped in my mind.
