[@Poundz978]

If I had a new subscriber for everytime I said .. "Water your paint" and "clean up" we'd be at 1mil! 😂😂

[@dexdixy4913]

Poundz978 hi I'm new to your channel and I love your work but I just wanted to ask you if you like star wars and do you collect black series

[@LifewithBrock]

Lol i hear you bro! That’s why I need voice overs on my voice overs on some of my vids 😂

[@Poundz978]

Life with Brock yeah, worse part is ... I did do voice and didn't manage to catch it until later in post production lol

[@Poundz978]

some collector hey man, thx for coming ... Not really into Star Wars so much... I do like the characters but never really been too invested in it

[@dexdixy4913]

Poundz978 alright that's cool man just keep up the good work and maybe give Star wars a try you never know but whatever your into bro I love Marvel and Dc anyways so I dig it. 👍

[@shinraidaman]

Bro your custom for venom black panther is sou cool good job

[@zacwilson6231]

My son and I have several figures we've been wanting to repaint but I couldn't find any good info on how to go about the process or what kind of paint to use but this video has given me enough information I'm finally feeling confident in giving it a shot

[@jaydealexiss1367]

This tutorial was soooo good. So helpful too. I have a black widow I'm dying to customize, now I know what paint to get.

[@UnknownUser-jv5fk]

Looks spot on to the comic, 10 out 10.

[@CasualTactic]

I just spent a really relaxing half hour with you while customizing my own figure. I was applying a smooth acrylic base coat with you and thought of some new techniques to try now and in the future. Thanks friend.

[@avielthealienfromplanetmex5679]

Looks like you picked up almost 15k subscribers since this video. Nice work mate. This video is going in my saved list.

[@shauntothemaxx5639]

Man. This is great. You really get down and cover the "simple" stuff most other painters and customizers just gloss over in their how tos. Made a huge mistake on my first custom and never went back (enamel, ruined the figure and the brushes I used). Seeing a simple, doable tutorial like this makes me want to try again.

[@Poundz978]

Shaun totheMaxx thanks man, I try to stay transparent with everything I do and wanted to show that mistakes happen. No ones perfect ... Yes.. Never use Enamel paints .. They never dry and leave the figure tacky .. Thanks for watching

[@Justin-ts3ig]

I like this tutorial. Very descriptive and thorough. I've trying to make a custom Emma frost, but I didn't know how to paint. Watching your tutorial makes it easier to understand how to paint. Thank you!

[@Poundz978]

Ballora And the Minireenas glad I could help!

[@Aames32]

Im making a spawn its my first go at a custom. This helps so much..

You actually got me into tryna do my own custom, and to do that ive started looking up how to disassemble and repaint. Amazingly enough, you had a video for both. When i subscribed i didnt realize how awesome your channel really is. Thanks Poundz!

[@DemetedP]

This tutorial is still so very useful to me even after so many years. Thank you.🙏

[@MollyHuffle]

Thanks for the tips! I just started on a clone trooper and mistakes were already made but it’s my first custom and I’m getting there lol. Thank you so much!

[@riclancaster2604]

Poundz, i have to say, theres good amount of people willing to share work skills on here, but i really appreciate you showing us how its done and equally how its not done, i love your tutorials, ive learnt so much, Thanks !

[@Don-iw1tq]

Thank you. I was looking for a way to repaint my son's action figure so he could have a 12 inch batman beyond. This tutorial helped out a lot. Here's a subscribe.

[@arjangelic]

Awesome tutorial! May I request a how to shave joints/avoid paint rub video if you plan to continue on making tutorials

[@Poundz978]

Johnny Rodimus thank you for watching .. I am working on a prep video very soon ..thanks again

[@suhtangwong]

Very true, just gotta do it, don't be afraid of messing up, always other figures you can try on again. I've been stalling on my angel and few others I had in progress, can't seem to push through because my prep takes hours and hours, I've been stalling for a year now, trying to get back in.

[@micklestapler4]

Holy shit man, lol I thought I knew what I was doing but I've truly learned so much from this vid . The joint rotation always chips for me ,sanding or cutting that down has helped me tremendously so thank you my dude . Hope your well my friend

[@brocleeonetwoonetwo]

My manz!! Yo you that dude bruh... I will have to watch this in it's entirety. Good looking out! Keep grinding! 💯👍🏽

[@michaelvaldez5993]

This was a very helpful tutorial, thanks for the video! That figure looks clean and this has inspired me a lot. I'm gonna try it out, wish me luck lol.

[@NinjaAimless]

Thank you so much Bro! I got a McFarlane Injustice 2 triple pack. Supergirl Batman & Doc Fate. They gave me this dusty ass Batman but I love that Injustice 2 Suit. Wanna paint it up and give it a better look. I see your method and I appreciate your process. Thanks for the Knowledge my friend👌🏾!

[@mr.slightlymad4496]

I'm gonna try these at some point with my Marvel Legends Movie Venom to make him more comic accurate. I might also try making the McFarlane/Bagley styled headsculpt to make it just perfect.

[@chrisingram4209]

Would love to see your take on venomverse cap or wolverine!! Nice vid bro!

[@Chalor.]

A damp paper towel is a paint brushes best friend. Always have one by your side to wet/wipe your brush every time you apply. I've never understood ppl getting those expensive, fancy little glass bottles of paint lol. I've been painting figures since the mid 90's and always used regular old acrylic paint. They cost about a dollar a bottle and they come in a thousand colors and varieties. But yeah, a good spotter brush is a must have for all those fine detailing. A toothpick/big t-shaped needle works even better for painting pupils and such.

[@Poundz978]

Mark Curtis a cup of water to rinse the brush every now and then and then wipe on a paper towel is the best way to go. I have used regular acrylic before and I was pleased with it until I met those little fancy glass bottles .. For me the paint is much more durable, it doesn't collect dust once dry, it doesn't dry sticky and tacky even when exposed to heat. To each is own, the Benefit of .50 cent paints are its color selection ... And yes toothpick/pins for pupils ..(which I need more practice in) I hardly ever make faces

[@mrcrowley1992]

Thank you bro for all the pointers! Ill try painting the marvel legends Gray Beast and make it Blue!

[@Sybato]

Thanks for this tutorial, I'm more of a visual learner, so this is a big help

[@DannhersArts]

People like you are really inspiring... I'm trying to get better on this, Still a beginner! But already tried my first custom figure with a Kidpool... Hopefully I'll get better while practicing!

[@spider-man8112]

POUNDZ!!! THANKS SO MUCH. Right now I'm working on my spidersona as a figure and it's turning out rlly well! You're the best, man!

[@jisoostanpapi9789]

I've been dreading to watch this vid as it's 33 mins toO long for my adhd ass, but after trying to customize my MCU Domino & having her come out really sticky, I am here once again. Popped an addy. IM READY

[@BoArtTakeOver]

Do you always have to put a sealer on your figure once you finish painting? And if so do you use a spray sealer or paint, and what kind do you use? Also do you always have to Prime the figure? Or can you just sand it all and what grit type do you recommend?

[@RunCMD97]

Glad I came across this. I'm tired of there being no comic Star Lord in the 6 in scale so I'm snagging a broken older Star Lord figure for his head and the most recent figure

I usually find that if you dip an old brush into a cup of boiling water it straightens the brush tip back out. Great tutorial BTW 🙂

I apply a think coat of paint adhesive or super glue with a brush to help the paint stick. It won’t chip on the joints.

[@Poundz978]

@@darthtater6543 if you sand the joints properly the paint applied later when sealed won’t ever chip. Never heard of supergluing joints to avoid paint chipping. But if it works for you…. 💪

Would love to see your take on it. Joint rub has been a PITA for me. Especially with women bucks. I can't seem to get the shoulder sections and hips from rubbing.

Great vid. Say I wanted to paint something that is red a grey colour. Would I need to sand every bit of red off or could I paint it black for example and then paint it grey? Sorry for the noob question. Just thinking about customising a figure.

Just a question.. What type of paint you mainly use on making custom figures?
