Pilot Painting Service

[AkumaZeto]

Was suggested I start cranking some of these out for people. I will say the softer the sculpt the less detail it will have. With that in mind pick your busts or figures accordingly. FMS stock pilot cant look much better without sculpt work. But the Ices of Iron are a good choice.

100 for 1/3rd 1/4 1/5 busts you supply bust
50 for 1/6 1/7 1/8 you supply bust

Turn around time right now as I have zero to do is about 1.5 weeks. Mostly drying time as I use oils and acrylics and even lacquer.

All models painted with high quality Tamiya Vallejo Or Mig Abteliung 502 paints.

Resin pieces are washed and then primed with Badgers Stylenrez one shot self leveling primer.

Here is a example of my recent 1/6 Dystopic build. Keep in mind the level of detail on this models sculpt with a basic PNP pilot in your stock plane.

Also included here is some 28mm figure painting to show the level of detail achieved in this small range. Again its all about the sculpt.

Really top notch work, AkumaZeto. Best of luck to you!

Holy cow, I know who I am going to come to when it's time to order my 1/5 scale Pappy Boyington for my ESM Corsair! Amazing work! What would be the cost for the 1/5 Pappy?

Thought he came painted? Would be 100-110 though

[Aros]

No he comes unpainted. You can go through a service they offer to have it painted for $165 so it's a no-brainer! I will message you when I am ready to purchase. I will just ship it directly to you.

Mad skills man, mad skills! Truly amazing.

I have one of those pilots that needs painting. And I am NOT looking forward to it.

[AkumaZeto]

Thanks fellas. I could use all the work I can get this time of year. Here is the completed pair. Anytime there are hoses I paint them but leave them off. Customer needs a small dab of CA to affix once situated in the cockpit. I dont recommend cutting or attaching anything until its in its final resting spot. I cant give any kind of recommendation either on how to affix these guys. Never done it myself so cant speak to that.

These pilots are out the door and done already. Received Friday and finished them over the weekend. Thanks Scott!

[EA-6B Geek]

These came out fantastic! Thanks AZ! I still can't believe how quickly you got these done and back to me.

[Prowler901]

AZ, you are quite the artist! Amazing work on all of this. :Cool:

[Aros]

He received my 1:5 Pappy today...I can't wait to see his stellar work on mine!
