    Loved it Chris! For future McFarlane figs tho, no need to cut the diaper, you can super easily detach the legs and then slide it off in one piece!

      I was about to say the same thing... a small flathead screwdriver is all it takes, then you don't have to glue shit!

      A big account had to tell him for him to finally listen. I always skip your cutting, it makes me cry. LOL

    @makeapathpresents 3 года назад +39

    Dish soap and hot water bath helps remove the coating that makes paint bead away. Helps paint adhere far better. For anyone interested in that trick.

    • @uglygiantbagsofmostlywater
      @uglygiantbagsofmostlywater 3 года назад +3

      I was typing the same thing until I read your post. What also sometimes works (if it's not the mold residue) is just praying it with a matt varnish.

    • @makeapathpresents
      @makeapathpresents 3 года назад +2

      @@uglygiantbagsofmostlywater yeah if I'm doing a touch up, I go with matte spray. If I'm stripping and repainting the full fig very detailed I'm do the bath.

      Why do you cut the diaper off instead of just disassembling the thing?

    Never ceases to amaze me with how much potential exists in these figures if you put a bit of work into them. Another 10/10 Chris 👌

  • @archangel5627
    @archangel5627 3 года назад +3

    It never ceases to amaze me just how big of a difference it makes by adding a touch of black shoe polish wash to these figures. I also have to say that the slight touch of silver on all the buckles, spikes and straps completely makes the figure pop in the best possible way. As always you’ve done it again! Excellent job!👍🏻😎

    4:27 From what I understand, the level of fidelity in a figure's sculpt has no impact on production costs. The amount of moving parts and paint hits is where it apparently gets costly. I'm not surprised McFarlane sacrificed paint for greater articulation compared to earlier "figures," which were glorified statues.

    You know? I'd love to see you do some "kitbashing" with these models, mixing 2 or more collectibles! Like (in this case) you could mix this Batman with Batfleck's Batman for a heavy metal Batfleck or something like that.

    @dan0017 3 года назад +1

    Great video as always Chris. Random question - does your hand shaking get worse when you're trying to do small fiddly things like when you're painting these figures and things like trying to put a screwdriver into a screw?

  • @thebirdofbludhaven8647
    @thebirdofbludhaven8647 3 года назад +1

    Chris it’s not hard to pull the legs off on the McFarlane figures so you won’t have to cut them. Just pull in them a little and they should pop off

  • @kakashibatusai

    You don't need to slice any of these parts. A little heat and the figure disassembles very easy. Then just pop back together after paint.

  • @brandonchaplin9782
    @brandonchaplin9782 3 года назад

    Just coming from being a mini painter. As long as it's a heavy body acrylic or specifically made model acrylic you should be safe with washes. Don't know what it is about the cheaper ones and activating whenever another paint or water touches them. Definitely look into something like vallejo for it though, they'll work a shit ton better with stuff like that. with their metallics though the more expensive ones are great but the standard line ones can be a bit shit

    I really like this figure for the sheer badassery of its look. I picked up the one that came with the red guitar. The guitar itself is a bit of a disappointment, as it's made of a softer plastic, and gravity bends the fret bar downward while the figure holds it.
