for fun I took pics of the first figure I ever painted. (more than 10 years ago , I think)

 

damn thats nice, my first one was shitty sloppy garbage, but this is art!

 

awesome man. I have a few here I intend to embark upon and paint soon. there are TONS of details on zoids.

 

HECK YES, ZOIDS! Awesome job.

 

I needed to dig up my old Zoids for future TF projects. Zoids were always awesome, they just didn't advertise that toys were even available! The new ones rule because they doint have the silly motorized parts

 

for sure man, I just bought 2 of these guys on ebay...probably the coolest looking robot animal I've ever seen :

 

Very nice paint job. I like the blue you use.

 

It was so long ago , that I don't even remember the blue's name!

and thanks for unintentially upping my posts F_R

 

Zoids!!!!

 

Damn thats a clean job right there I can't believe its your first my first 2nd and 3rd paintjobs looked like crap. I actually just got my first 2 zoids yesterday, I'm amazed how good they look makes me feel guilty I bought them only for parts to use on customs.

 

As others have said, that's a really nice paint job there. It's always fun to take a stroll down memory lane.  

Regarding painting and even some other areas of the hobby here, what are some things that you see in this piece that you do differently? What are some things you still do the same way?

 

I airbrushed him, but I gave up on airbrushing because the up keep was too much at the time, I still have all of it, and looking at how he still looks, I might be getting it back out.; I'd have to buy all new paints, since they have to be garbage by now.
