Well, I've never made a custom figure before, but I decided I was just so sick and tired of that terrible Flint that Hasbro provided us with, I would try my hand at it, and make a cartoon Flint. While I'm certainly no CobraCollector, I'm pretty satisfied with it. What do you guys think?

Wow dude. Great job! The camo is spot on. What did you use to make it? Just a steady hand? OR did you use a reference?
And what type brush (make/size)?

Shirt color is more brownish in the cartoon, but the rest is great. Good job.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I wouldn't say I have all that much skill, though. I think I have almost as much ability as that painting Chimpanzee, although he gets paid better.
Cobra Fox, I used a paused DVD of TROC as a reference, and in that at least, I think Flint's beret is supposed to be black. They used that wierd color they use to try to make something black, like how they paint Snake Eyes. I believe it has something to do with a lack of detail if they paint everything truly black. |

I just finished a Cartoon colors Flint too and yours looks even better than what I did. I checked stills from a lot of different episodes of the cartoon and flint's shirt ranges from brown to OD green so there appears to be no standard there. His hat also is either black or dark slate grey in various episodes.
That's a really nice job....especially for a 1st custom. I am looking forward to seeing what you do next.
