I’ve been wondering, how much do your commissions cost usually? Like if you do work on something like the X plus gargantuas kit what would it run up cost wise?

@legrandzilla 23 сағат бұрын

It really would depend on the kit, but on this kit, I would do the set for $500 plus shipping

Always nice to see other giant theropods get some attention other than Rexy... given Giga surely was still a big and dangerous dinosaur... before JW Dominion I used to have to explain to non Dinosaur enthusiasts that Giga = think of a very big Allosaurus comparable to Rexy size 😅

As a kid when I watched the iconic Mt Fuji showdown battle down to the Atami Castle... my cousin and I were watching the scene and my uncle made a sly remark 'Godzilla and King Kong are about to SMASH DOWN THE TEMPLE!!!' and I was gobsmacked given I'm a Buddhist and thinking HOW CAN GODZILLA AND KING KONG SMASH A TEMPLE WHEN MONKS AND NUNS WORK AND PRAY THERE?! 🤔 only to realize years later it was a castle not a temple 😅

I recalled asking my mother if I could have a Mecha-G 75 toy... instead she encouraged me to draw him and we both used crayons to sketch a Mecha-G 75 ... now over 2 decades later there's that Mecha-G 75 card I still got and ofc a Bandai Mecha-G 75 and 74 figure 😉

My favorite film is the '33 King Kong. I probably first saw it on television in 1959 at 6 or 7 years old. I have no idea how many times I've watched it but there's one detail that I noticed and have never heard anyone mention. When the ending sequence at the top of the Empire State Building begins the broken manacle is still on Kong's wrist. Near the end, shortly before he falls, the manacle disappears. Beautiful job.

Hey man! New to the game. Ordered myself a T's Facto kit not long ago (still waiting for it to get to me) and I'm curious if you got any tips for what paints and primers to use? I've been gathering up tools for pinning and a dremel for cleaning the model parts up. I've been watching pretty much every video I can but there's not many super in depth guides to these. I've painted some Warhammer models 8n the past to pretty good effect and I know this isn't quite the same but it looks like you've made quite a few of these so far and if there's any tips that come to mind I would be so grateful. I ordered the millennium design version 2 and was thinking of doing a dark dark Grey almost black coloclr scheme with orange highlights on his dorsal plates. Feel free to message me any tips if you felt so inclined. Your work is great looking thru your video library. Thanks in advance if you do end up throwing some tips my way =) - a godzilla fan

@legrandzilla 4 ай бұрын

Thanks and best wishes on your kit! With resin painting, I use Rustoleum Sandable Auto Primer, it sounds like the darker grey version would be best, but you can use acrylic primer too. Just be sure not to use enamels because they won't dry properly directly over resin or vinyl. Other than that, I use all kinds of paints. I do not use any particular brand but I use a lot of Badger paints typically. Anything that is airbrush ready is what I prefer, though I dont always use an airbrush. Once I have properly primed and got my acrylic base coats down, I like to use oil washes and dry brush with oils. These are oil paints like used for oil paintings. They dry slowly so they are easy to blend and feather, but you will want to wait a bit for that to dry before spraying it with a matte overcoat.

@@ethanbergendahl5566 Kits can vary so much in complexity, size and difficulty in shipping that it is impossible to simply say "I charge this much for a kit" The Paradise Big Swing you are doing is a good example of how it could be built and painted, but have problems down the road if not engineered properly. It can also be harder to try to work on a kit that someone has already started, sometimes they need to be taken apart again to do properly, which can be a hassle and difficult. I have charged from $200-$1000 to do a commission with shipping extra.
