      No worries. We'll fix it. You guys did the hard part (liscensing, initial investment, likeness approval, sculpting, finding a distributer etc).

      If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

        The figures already looked great, but you made them look fantastic, and actually showed how accurate they are! Nice work!

          Great work! I like the Wolf Man especially; it really brought out the great sculpt. The light area on the face as manufactured makes him look slightly Werewolf of London-ish, I think.

            Excellent job! They look so much better.

            Good call eliminating the red lips and giving him his textbook black/green set. It makes the red gashes pop out more.

            I'd like to copy what you did.

            For the black hair bangs extensions, the black you used blended perfectly with the black paint from the factory?

            How did you dry-brush? What is the technique?

            What brand and type of paint did you use? What size brush?

            Did you work from a photograph?

              All good questions; hopefully, there's a response. Great job on the retouching.

                  Wow I love the repaint. Didn't see this before. Those are quality sculpts!!
                  Those who look outside dream. Those who look within awake.
                  Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness

                  To do list:
                  1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
                  1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;

                    I also love the repaints. Laurie mentioned the Wolfman would come up so much better when we saw them at TRU and she was right.
