luke314pi Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Punisher I love the style! Luke, Please add my name to list, I'm going to take a stab at a custom! Thanks! [EDIT: Can anyone recommend a spray paint that gives a good metallic shine? I know there are multiple 'metallics' brands out there, but has anyone used one they particularly like?] Will do! And I wrote an article for the Factory comparing metallic paints here. That might point you in the right direction, although those are brush-on paints. its okay to use actual metal pieces, right? Yes you can definitely use real metal pieces. I just might have to put a disclaimer on your auction if there are any sharp edges or anything.

youbastards Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) Will do! And I wrote an article for the Factory comparing metallic paints here. That might point you in the right direction, although those are brush-on paints. Thanks Luke, I'll have to read more articles on your site. I went ahead and picked up a can of Krylon Premium Metallics Chrome spray paint, and leaves a great shiny metallic surface. I can see why you guys really get into this. I agree with everyone, those customs look great! Edited April 26, 2010 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 The WW11 robot is truly brilliant. I have just been singing the WW11 wolverines praises in the 'Guide' thread. WW11 Minimates in general would sell like sweets . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 Indeed that is very cool! I should probably remind everyone who hasn't finished their customs (myself included!) that I will be taking pictures for the ebay auctions starting on June 1st, so that will give you an idea on when you need to mail these to me, depending on your location. If you don't have my address, please send me a PM. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
