Description My latest ebay purchase all the way from Malaysia!

PLEASE CLICK 'DOWNLOAD' FOR THE FULL VIEW.

Although i haven't been drawing much lately, i've been keeping busy with other artistic endeavors.

Here we have 3 bootlegged street fighter resin kits recast as resin statues.
the statues came with pretty average paint jobs and i tried to bring them back to life as best i could.

KAIRI
the kairi statue needed a lot of work.
as you can see from the pics, his face and especially his eyes were really badly painted.
i repainted his face and eyes, giving him the golden pupil and scar.
also got rid of that terrible lipstick and gave him a bad-ass street fighter mouth.
next, i got rid of his very 3D nipples.
and lastly i had to cut off his hands and totally rebuild them.
the statue has been cast n recast so many times, the hands were pretty much blobs of resin with just the finger tips showing.

YANG
the yang statue was surprisingly detailed and in good shape.
he's a tad beefy for yang but a good sculpt overall.
all it needed was some color corrections and i repainted the face to give him that more street fighter look.

Akuma
i didn't think much of the akuma at first but after a fresh fresh coat of paint, it really brought the sculpt to life.
adding detail to the eyes and mouth really helped.

What do you guy's think?

That kairi is just dodgy bootleg, the real kit is much better.
you can buy the real kit from E2046.

I'm having issues with my Chun-li Resin kit.
I think I need more training with the paint brush.

rgm501 In reply to TheToonDevil [2011-01-25 05:12:22 +0000 UTC]

yeah painting is not easy, especially on such a small scale.
i find the more you do it the better you get.
also if your having trouble keeping your hand steady, try using your piny finger to lean against a try part of the model while painting the finer details like the eyes.

good luck dude!

Wow, I didn't know you could PAINT too! They really looked horrible before, I'm so glad you fixed them!

The Slackers store nearest to me sells these REALLY cheaply made pokemon figures... it's so bad. The colors aren't even right, and the plastic is... (shudders) And yet they try to sell them for $2.99 a figure. -_-
