    Hello Votron fans in here. Just wanna share some images of my Voltron Legendary Defender 16" with some minor detail painting. It is quite a challenge getting some dynamic poses on this fig. due to limited articulation. But it's doable. Please check em out and feel free to make some comments...

    Love the updates! Are you planning to paint the base of the Black Lion collar to black?

    No. The base cavity may look too hollow or wide.

    These. Look. Amazing.

    It not only REALLY makes me want this set. But it also makes me a bit sad that they don't look like this in retail. Fantastic job on these!!

    I love what you did, l have been on the fence with the box set. 100 bucks is a fair enough deal for me, but l am not sold on how his shoulders sit in relation to his chest/head, seems slouchy. But if l bought him it would most likely go under the knoife anyway sooooooo......

    My custom and your paint work would work great together!!! I've given him head and wing articulation. :)

    Did you ever end up giving your 16”combiner waist and head articulation like you did with your metal combiner?
