Fixing Marvel Legends VENOM Figure - Venom | Ken I Make It

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodYT]

You’ve got a bootleg/KO right there pal- a good one but the quality is nowhere near the actual

[@KenIMakeIt]

NOoooo :( I knew it! The paint job wasn’t great

[@infiniteedge7434]

Any way to tell which ones a Ko? I ordered one from entertainment earth. They're reliable tho so I hope they ship an official.

[@jlopezpunisher97]

@@jlopezpunisher97 go google and check, the torso for ko should not have any pattern

[@badbot3029]

this is definitely the ko. where did you get it from? aliexpress?

[@Optimusprime809]

I didn't think he needed improving but you've shown otherwise! He looks really cool, I love the blue on the eyes!

[@jorgerincon6874]

Cool custom, and yeah you definitely have a bootleg one, cause it doesn't have the serial number on the back of the right leg, on top of the poor QC.

[@KnightPrime1]

Bro the design for the Venom is Awesome! I like the repaint, and the choice of blue on the eyes. I'm commenting as I'm watching! From what I've seen, this is already some incredible work! I've been working on some custom lego Minifigures of mine. I think they are pretty good. I got all the inspiration from you!

[@KenIMakeIt]

Aww that’s great! It’s not easy painting small figures!

[@KnightPrime1]

@@KenIMakeIt yep, but it does turn out pretty great! I made a video on one of my customs and it went viral! It passed 23k views!

[@lanmaisun5927]

You are very clever to change the way you fix the veins. It saves time and makes the veins more realistic. You do not just have talent in arts but also in other areas. 👍👍

[@stefanostudios]

Hi Ken! I got my Venom in the mail and I think it was a KO but it wasn’t too bad. The same problems on yours was on mine and I used some of your improvements and I’m really happy with the result! It looks even better than the original! Thank you Ken!

[@KenIMakeIt]

That’s so awesome to hear! Glad it helped!! Now you can paint more figures!

[@stefanostudios]

@@KenIMakeIt Yeah! They are so fun to paint and make more accurate and its so satisfying when you see the result you’ve been wanting!

[@chuicecilia468]

You have made many figures look cooler and handsomer. This time you have made Venom more evil and scary. You are very successful. Venom becomes the evil of the evils.

[@Darkjaguarackerman9588]

When you add some of the details of venom you make him look amazing

[@felivannekman7271]

An excellent improvement job! The eyes and veins look much better after your skilful repaint. Awesome!

[@JRMD-ex4hg]

Very nice custom, you should add a bit of black paint to the eyes to give Venom his dirty look

[@laixu6746]

The blue on the eyes nails it! Great work!

[@c4r7s0n]

Epic paint job! I subbed!

[@bowserstopmotionproduction2933]

Wow! It came out great! My venom also had a defect, his closed mouth head had an unpainted eye, so I had to paint it in myself.

[@disfrutadorpromedio4277]

this channel is so underrated... you should have atleast 50k subscribers.

[@ahmedjagirdar2773]

I love this work you have done on the figure. I am pretty sure you got a knockoff figure as such issues aren't usually there on the original figure. However, you fixed it and it was great. I am planning on buying 2 of these guys. One I will fix the same way you did and the other I will try to add the Spiderman logo on it like the comics. Your work is really great and is gonna make me do my first ever repaint on a figure. How did you paint the teeth as they were not completely white, more like off white. May I know what paints and colors you used on the figure ? Are they all acrylic paints ? I literally have no clue about painting figures so I would be very happy if you could help me out. Also keep up the great work. You just got yourself a new subscriber.

[@KenIMakeIt]

I use dollar store acrylic paint on my figures haha. I recommend getting familiar with the paint and brushes first so you have more control on how the paint gets distributed. I also prefer working with thin layers and slowly building up the colours. I used light blue for the eyes and a cream-like colour for the teeth. As for the varnish, I have the varnish I used listed in the description box in my recent videos. Hope this helps!

[@ahmedjagirdar2773]

@@KenIMakeIt thank you so much for the info. Do I have to use the varnish after painting ? Or can I just paint with acrylic paints and leave it be ?

[@Akutheos]

@@ahmedjagirdar2773 varnish is used when you don't want to chip the paint

Perfect video! I also got the bootleg version by mistake, so I’m definitely gonna be fixing him, too

[@bomay536]

I think you got the booleg but great job as always you make it better than the original

[@StevenEpicNation]

Amazing job bro I got the KO one by accident as well and once I receive it I plan to do the same like what you’ve done 🙌🏼 Is there any chance that you can recommend me where to buy the black paint & the blue you used for eyes? What kind as well :) 🙏🏼

[@KenIMakeIt]

.. I’m using dollar store acrylic paint hahaha. I recommend using paint that you are familiar with so you can manipulate it comfortably.

[@StevenEpicNation]

@@KenIMakeIt For sure thank you I was thinking about spray painting it with a gloss black and then doing the same thing you did with the eyes because that came out sick

[@jambee5603]

I got a challenge for you, try repainting a Marvel select carnage

[@tristanatanacio8575]

The KO Venom would be good for customs since the original one's getting quite expensive

[@channel_vert1988]

I can’t wait til he meets Spider-Man too! Do you think we’ll be able to get a video showing your entire collection so far? Just wondering.

[@thor2564]

I think that figure doesn't need any paint job. But I like your upgrading GREAT JOB.

[@worstcraft]

Where did you buy it from and what's the price 🤔 BTW great job bro it looks awesome 👌

[@darthkarnage7538]

When drawing the veins on him, what kind of paint brush did you use? I keep messing it up with my Venom

[@RAINMINER]

I like how you painted venom's eye to be perfect

[@infiniteedge7434]

Could you make a video on painting the Amazon exclusive dusty Deadpool from brown to red?

[@echo6222]

very important question wht kind of clear varnish did u use ?

[@williamseneyjr.6277]

Ken, I have a question. Why do you never use acetone to eliminate unwanted paint?

[@KenIMakeIt]

🤔🤔I’ve never thought about using acetone! I think it’s because I fear doing irreversible “damages” to my figures. With acrylic paint I feel like I can always undo any mistakes.

[@williamseneyjr.6277]

@@KenIMakeIt I had that same fear but through trial and error, I discovered that if you use a *very* sparing amount of acetone on a pointed Q-tip(you can find these in makeup shops usually), you can strip paint without stripping any plastic. It can take a while depending on how much paint you are trying to remove but I have found this method very helpful.

[@kim.mo-mi]

Hi, do you know the difference between Acrylic Gloss and Outdoor Sealer Gloss? and what do you recommend to use in this particular custom? thanks

[@villacaterjohndereckr.9955]

Bro your Venom's design is awesome, what did you use to paint it?

[@warsthemarvel8608]

7:39 That’s exactly what happened in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics/video game

[@McFrozenNuggets]

With the Venom figure I have, all I did was repaint the gums and teeth to look a little cleaner, and changed the gums from pink to red. So to say the least, I kind of took a page out of your book, Ken.

[@JorgitoPues]

Another cool project, this one looked so easy but Im sure it wasn't. Excelent video!

[@55batmanandjoker]

On the other hand yours did look kinda off so i guess it was a knock off, but you did a fantastic Job with it as usuall..he looks awesome now, i was thinking of customizing the eyes on myn a little too, to make it more movie accurate .

[@thecourier1177]

Bro pls tell me where you got the figure, i can't find it in a fair price

[@Hammeringgrounds666]

Love art work 👏👏👍👍👍❤

[@SadieThePug365]

These are incredible! Keep it up man!

[@gleyno]

I doubt you had a knock off but more of a figure riddled with QC paint issues , my venom had sculpting issues but only seen when you really pay enough attention to it

[@Ladron.Baudelaire]

Nah it’s a knock off

[@tupicodm9465]

U got the bootleg version it’s the KO it’s basically a off brand of the authentic Marvel legends

[@Gabriel-wd4lc]

ken, у меня вопрос, чернила не выгорают?

Kan you make the symbiote pizza spidey look like the ultimate symbiote Spider-Man?

If Hasbro won’t (which would be a shame) make a movie Riot figure would you make a custom out of a bootleg movie Venom?

Fix the neck articulation please

[@stklitelopez9521]

What type of paint are u using also what brush tool are u using?

Gosh I love Good Venom

[@IZE-Skream]

did you use acrylic one to make it slimy

Aw hell nah they sold this man ahegao venom. lol all jokes aside it looks better than the Hasbro official figure, great job.

[@GTreviews04]

Hey bro, how do you do this fade effect in the eyes ? I tried to paint mine but it went wrong, could you explain ?

[@KenIMakeIt]

I use a somewhat wet brush and apply thin layers at a time. It’s a bit easier to blend that way

[@GTreviews04]

Thanks for the tip bro. What size of the brush you used in the eyes ?

Yeah I'm pretty sure that was a bootleg. Thankfully some bootlegs aren't that bad and are on par with the real thing when it comes to posing and how well they stick together. If you're good at painting a bootleg can be a great alternative if the real ones are too stupid a price.
