Before: Original Hot Toys HS


After




Hi All,
I recently repainted a Hot Toys James Dean HS.
I'm still testing several ways to repaint.
It is one of them.

Peace~

excellent work there Zuno :thumb
great work zuno!

how did u make that texture? was it the paint used or did u add something to the paint?
Yup,much better.
Very nice work, Zuno.

Did you completely remove the original paint before you re-painted? I applaud all you guys that venture into re-painting as I don’t have the stones to potentially ruin a HT HS.

That same HS just cost me $30+ loose…and if I destroyed it…argh…
great work zuno!

At this time, I used oil paint and pastel to make texture. And then finished with matte and gloss clear finish alternately.

thank u Zuno.
Nice, but I never liked the HT James Dean, if you want the best, the Mattel one rules.

CHEERS!
So did you only repaint the eyes and the lips and add texture to the face?
