Baggins PF repaint

[gabberjawa]

First time ever taking a paintbrush to a collectible.

L: stock R: mod

One more straight on:

What was touched up:
-Eyebrows
-Lips
-Irises completely repainted

As you can see the lighting and such are pretty close. I didn't try to make the stock 'look bad' with poor photos like they do in advertisements.

I am actually very happy with the touch up. And I did already like the piece to begin with, believe it or not. You can read my full review at Sideshow Collectibles: https://www.sideshowtoy.com/behindtheshow/?page_id=2853&source=032907news

I have to say this re-affirms my opinion that Mat did a solid job.

[Fritz]

Yes it looks better, nice job Chuck...

...but I still don't think it looks any more or less like Elijah Woods.

 

[Jen]

Excellent work!! I agree with everyone else, he looks much better!

 

[The Ringer]

This looks spectacular and did you do anything to the mouth,it looks a lot better?

 

[Captain Faramir]

I'm amazed by what a difference that makes! It's beautiful!

If I could have just one PF figure, this might be it!

 

[gabberjawa]

I did touch it up with some paint to lighten the shade

Almost as good as the dancing Jabba

 

[D. Martin]

Nice job, but I don't think it really looks that different. I'm not saying it looks bad, just that I think the production one is nice.

Looks great! No more lazy eye.

Nice work, the subtle changes enhance it just ever so slightly. Also I dig the sig. (Sorry for the rhyme!)

 

[Rook]

Thanks for taking a look!

Hey, everybody! Look! It's Elijah Wood!

Nice work, Chuck.

 

[Deadly Dagger]

Looks much better...his face has more of a worn look about him....kudos.

Great job! So now I see where the "unlikeness" lies - lips colour and eyebrown

 

[GrueSam]

Much much improved, Chuck.

Looks better without all of that "makeup" on him!
