Evening Tankers,
I invested in a huge lot of loose figures from 82-85 last year and thought I could begin restoring them. Sadly I just don't have the critical eye for detailing work as I used to (especially for eyes, eyebrows) and the color matching was driving me bonkers. I've done well with vehicle restorations and have several prominently on display in my cave. I've been scouting model, hobby and miniature shops locally but they dont offer any type of commission work and oddly couldn't give me a recommendation though they say they know people...something about being on store hours. So I thought I'd turn here and see if anyone takes on commissions for touching up paint work. Nothing custom, just refreshing the worn paint as it was originally (faces, pouches, hands, etc). The figures are in excellent condition, no beaters and are for my personal collection. I have the display cases & vehicles ready. Just need butts in the seats....8) Please fee free to PM me. Thanks! |

I feel you i retired over years ago being well known in customs. I untrtired for classified and my eyes are shot... I bought this to see details cause i am OCD when painting it right. Head Mount Magnifier with 2 Led Professional Jeweler's Loupe Light Bracket and Headband are Interchangeable.
