Damn, that display is outstanding. The Spirit Bomb with that specific stand on the bottom matches very well.
Hey, I noticed your Manga Piccolo but you changed the belt to match the Anime/SDCC version and it looks fantastic. What color paint did you use? I'm thinking of doing that for Manga Gohan when he's re-released.
Once I'm home I'll let ya know the names and amounts
And I'll be doing the same to my Gohans whenever they get around to rereleasing him. Which they should do asap lol
Very nice, colourful collection
Great, thanks!
That's exactly what I've been thinking of doing instead of buying a SDCC Gohan. You picked the perfect shade of blue to go along with the overall color tone.
It's a mix of acrylic white and bright blue. Mostly white, only putting in a small amount of blue. I'm sure they have one straight out of the bottle like baby blue or sky blue or something but I just mixed my own till I got the desired color. It's folkart paint you can get at walmart
Really? Just a small amount of blue?
Did you take the belt off or just paint it while on the figure?
Yeah. Doesn't have to be a lot. And you can always keep adding until you get the desired color. You can't take it away lol but I just left the belt on.
That's true. I really like the way it came out on the Manga Piccolo because it goes along with the light color application rather than the darker anime. Is it just Datong Vegeta where his hip joint can be taken apart? I thought it was all S.H. Figuarts but I haven't necessarily wanted to try it, haha.
Thanks.
I darkened Piccolo's gi a little bit but I didn't go as dark as the SDCC version because you're right, I don't like the contrast with the belt. But I'm with you, I'm too afraid to try lol so I'm not sure if it separates or not
Yeah, the tone of the belt you did went really well with the gi. I like that a lot. I know, I'm too afraid to try but it wouldn't be that difficult to put a piece of cloth behind the belt just in case any paint mistakes. So that pretty much takes care of that, ha. Can't wait to see what you do with Manga Gohan when he comes out!
Those Dragon Ballz are sick
