After touching up the stubble, I just couldn't resist the urge to try and make Drake look more like he did at the point in the game the PF represents. Painted on some cuts, bruising and dirt on his face. Also, dirtied up his arms (might have overdone that part a little?). I must've been out of mind to attempt this with the very little amount of experience I have repainting statues, but I dig it.

Looks incredible. I wish mine looked like that.
Fantastic work mattman6886 
if I had this PF I would do pretty much exactly what you did

Nice repaint - I'd tone down the arms - look like age spots, but really nice improvement

That repaint looks so good. Nice job!
Inspected my Drake statue closer yesterday with a light, and noticed a couple of paint chips on his chin that I didn't notice previously. Not sure if I can be bothered replacing through Sideshow though. I've never repainted anything before...so can anyone tell me how hard it'll be to touch up? It's just a few spots.

Im meant to be getting this at some point, but it seems that Sideshow are messing me about in all honesty and although I want it so bad, i'm half tempted to cancel because of the service i've received from them.
First off they were meant to take part of the money on the 5th Feb and no money was taken, then my order said "despatching soon", then back to "processing", then "despatched" and now back to "processing".
Ive emailed them three times in the last 7 days or so and not once have I had a reply from them.
To be honest, i'm so annoyed that I really don't know what to do at this moment in time. Ill leave it another 3 or 4 days to see if they get back to me and if they don't, I think I might cancel my order.

You should either call them, or cancel the order and get it from bigbadtoystore.

you should call them and sort it out. emails make the process much slower.

They have finally taken the 1st payment out thank god. Maybe they heard me ranting lol.
One thing guys, as i'm doing the 3 month flexpay option, how does it work? Do I have to wait till they have taken out the last payment before the item is shipped? Or do they send it before that?
Thanks.

What was wrong with your original head? Mine also has a bit of paint missing on the chin...like 3-4 dots or so. Was contemplating whether to request a new one or not.

Drake. Number 342 is here.
Crappy pics I'm affraid. Very nice statue. However there are some parts where paint is missing, on the hair and on the stubble. Annoying, especially when mine had a letter inside saying it had been opened and inspected before it was sent. Well, I will be asking for a replacement head. The last 6 pieces from Sideshow have arrived with flaws. Very frustrating.
