FYI photobucket is happy to sell you all manner of prints to immortalize those wicked tight customs, yo.

How so? Because someone got a paint job you didn't like?

I held off on buying the Lolgolth red and black because I felt you couldn't appreciate the detail in the sculpt with no color to accent things. The glow blue Lolgolth was the best, but I'd still greatly prefer the "ultimate" colorway Unbox had custom made.

Thanks for the love guys appreciate it! I am not going to say negative stuff so keep coming at me. I will not stop painting blank toys which I paid for with my own money or doing commissions which collectors give me blank toys to paint. So have at it get as many punches in as you can. Never going to stop sculpting or painting toys.

I'd like to reference the hxs thread here, where people were talking about SB not having much to say. I'd like to think something like this thread could have an interesting conversation about why a toy is interesting and appealing, or why a toy is terrible. In the end it is all personal opinions. I know making jokes are fun, and they do make me laugh, but I'd also like to think there is also a thoughtful opinion about why a toy is loved or hated to go with it.

Honestly I don't see the big deal here, dude is painting blank toys, I see this at all times so I don't get it.

you are criticizing a black light picture of the mvh skull headbutt that I painted without even seeing it in the light. Ps maybe Rich needs to know how you charged me 240 for a 6 eye dx when I didnt know their value. My mistake but your the flipper. Dont get me started on the jack move you pulled on one of my other friends.

a blank cinema monster for a fully painted one of a kind bone usir dx that he couldve sold or traded for easily 250 worth in trade....wow thats thievery, I cant keep my mouth shut toward your flipper bs.

I actually like the Wing Kong's paints, though I'm not the biggest fan of the toy. The deep metallic blue looks nice as hell, in my opinion. The paint app on the Cinema Monster is solid, but the colors wouldn't be my choices. I think Slithers has a definitive style and I applaud him for stickin' with it and not being at all discouraged.

Somewhat off topic, I've actually always thought the virus colorway looked like those sprinkle cupcakes. I love and own all the Biskup virus releases.

Completey agree. Slither's style is undeniably his own. I can totally appreciate someone that has found a way to seperate themselves from the crowd.

I thought we were laughing at the mini sidekicks inspired by the kaijooz. I have no problem with people ruining toys for fun or profit.

It's pretty lame that people think they can dictate what people do with their own toys. I remember someone blowing up their nags, and that was awesome. I have people customize stuff for me on occasion, and that is my prerogative. What needs to be stopped is the rank elitism.

I think the Wing Kong looks great painted up, good job dude. This guy is painting because he loves the toys, and he is playing with them. Good for him.

truslithers while I'm not into most customs in general... I would like to say thanks for sticking to painting blanks and I appreciate you not throwing a hissy fit on SB because some people are not into your stuff. I mean, watching people do that can be quite funny, don't get me wrong! but good to see someone who can actually take some criticism around here.

Damn customizers they are all evil!!!!!! :twisted:

I agree that we should stop posting threads about customs in the wrong forum.
