[MacrossFa19]

Man your photo shop effects make that look wicked as hell. Tell me you plan on soing a SS3?!

[- Z -]

Jesus..... that is awesome. How did you make the photoshop effects? They make the figure look life like!!

[Overhaulimus]

Holy crap,dude amazing job,you have me wanting to find this model kit.

[INCOM]

Wicked, man. Great sfx as well. What's with the last two pics in your album, the ones with the balding head? :p

[TonyzCustomz]

I'm waiting patiently for my S.H.Figuarts SS Goku to get here but man are you tempting me with this. Great job, your paint job really makes him pop.

[thyvipera]

great job on this. and those photoshop effects are blingin!

[budi_d]

wew, amazing. likes your photoshop techniques bro. Good job with the paint too.
Two Thumbs Up !!

[OMEGAPRIME1983]

damn it, I didn't want to buy this till just now, and then on top of that they are making a SS Goku.. damn damn damn!!! Oh, and I think it's spelled "Son", not "sun". Just an observation.

solrac333 - thank you for the kind words ! :D

macrossfa19 - thank you so much ! trust me the only photoshop effects i knew of are lens flare and dodge paint brushes ! i am trying to learn as i go ! and Hell yeah if they release a SS3 ! heck even SS4 i would wan to do one ! the kit is pretty pricey if u asked me, but considering it's Master Grade i couldn't complain much ! :D

zildjian - thank you ! i used lens flare for 90% of the effects i've used for my customs, till the point that i have ppl telling me it's too corny lol ! so now i've learnt another effect, it's by using paint brushes and selecting the mode for color dodge ! you can play around with the opacity for desired effect too ! due to my laziness i should only learn another effect when someone starts complaining again lol ! :D

overhaulimus - thank you ! if it helps it's the same line from the Bandai Gundam Kits, just that this one has a FigureRise tag to it, and it's Master Grade ! Cheers :D

incom - Thank you for the kind words ! oh you've noticed ! the hair was covering the eyebrows so i've figured out a way to show ppl wats underneath it *ahem* :D

tonyzcustomz - thank you ! oh yeah i so wan tat piccolo from that line ! but i'm holding back for preordering it coz it's pretty pricey for a figure that small ! so far for this kit SS goku will be next but i really wan a well made piccolo for a change ! :D

thyvipera - thank you for the kind comments ! i'm making best of use to what i only know ! :D

budi_d - thank you thank you ! glad that you like it ! :D

omegaprime1983 - thank you ! the SS goku comes with battle damage clothes, i was hoping he would at least get a alternate hand with the "teleport" handsign but no ! And thank you for helping with the exact name ! i can't change the title though but i'll change what i can, thanks again ! :D

That looks awesome. It captures the anime look very well. Any "before" pics, though?

[OMEGAPRIME1983]

no worries on the spelling thing man, just wanted to help :) DBZ is by far my favorite anime, so I hope you don't feel like I was trying to be rude when correcting your spelling.

[OMEGAPRIME1983]

ya know.. it's to bad they didn't give goku one more facial expression with a smile on it. Like the big stupid grin like this -> :D

[AutobotX23]

AWESOME!!!!! Please do more!!!

[XAVIERCAL]

dude that just so cool..

[Shinobitron]

Instant love for him! Dont want to beat a dead horse but . . THE PHOTOSHOP EFFECTS ARE STELLAR!

[speedleescustoms]

mampy - thank you ! sorry i didn't take any wip pic before this... i found this video on youtube though, the kit looks pretty good even before painting ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1Wr5UWywTU&feature=fvw

omegaprime1983 - no worries mate ! you are actually helping me out here, no hard feelings but i do feel embarrassed for making such a mistake lol ! i do love Dbz too ! all the over powered fights n such ! it seems like there ain't much of accessories even in the upcoming SS goku, man they could at least give us the weapon and maybe the monkey tail for that price tag ! thanks again ! btw i'm born in 1983 too ! :D

autobotx23 - thank you ! oh yeah if they release piccolo i will do it ! :D

xaviercal - thank you for the kind words ! :D

shinobitron - thank you very much ! glad that you like them ! :D

[OMEGAPRIME1983]

I hope they do a few more models as well, as this one seems to be pretty nice. wonder if there is a way to make the seems a bit less noticeable.. hmmmmm..

[optimuscarlos]

Amazing model, and great paint job

[speedleescustoms]

omegaprime1983 - you mean these lines that appear when you put 2 pieces of the parts together ? apparently there are, you pretty much have to sand the seams down, fill the gaps with putty, then sand it down again... I learn all that during my modelling days but never use it coz i'm lazy lol... :)

optimuscarlos - Tyvm ! Cheers mate :D

[mampy]

Perfect paintwork! Looks just like the cartoon!

[speedleescustoms]

Thank you very much ! I'm just waiting out on a piccolo release ! :)
