    I love the figure but out of the box its paint apps do leave much to be desired. I love how you tied together the purple on his chest. It's subtle but works well.

    Your version looks like a third-party version. Night and DAY, Sir.

    I think you made Swindle look really awesome. Pretty sure I will paint most of the same details you painted. Nice work.
