...I kind of feel like we should have a separate thread for painters to offer their services and showcase their skills. Like Vince for instance.

Nobody is gonna have time to dedicate themselves as a PrototypeZ painter. I've now been assembling and painting kits for over 6 months and I can tell you that the entire process is EXTREMELY time consuming if everything is done right.

It's an incredibly fun hobby and I suggest that others get into it as I have. The only other choice is to find individuals to paint your kit like Ed, but knowing that a painter has 12 or more kits, plus a full time job, plus a family, plus a personal life, etc means grab a Snickers 'cause it's gonna be awhile.

I think every single PTZ customer has proven themselves to be exceptionally patient

I don't mind the wait , but since Ed's service is no longer available, I'm not getting anymore of these kits. They are absolutely amazing, but it's just too much hassle for international customers.

No doubt. Whether you want to be or not.

Oh yes, we can wait for sure. When the quality of the outcome is guaranteed then I can be very patient.
It's only been 8 months since my first Sagat preorder
...just messing

But seriously this company is in desperate need of a PR guy. I mean their activity is like an up-down diagram...given in specific steps:

- They blow our minds with the hype of the first reveal.
- Absolute Silence
- They blow our minds with the painted protoz.
- Absolute silence

...and the pattern goes on...

Seriously how haven't you thought of hiring a guy that can be really involved with the fans out here? It would really help. I mean it's not a difficult assumption since even someone like me can see that

Anyway for me it's good that Ryu isn't sold out yet. I want to get my Sagat first so I can have a firm view of the total process and of the required taxes.

Come on guys, just do it!

Without stepping on Ed's toes I'm offering my painting services. I've talked to Jorge (Fenix) just to be sure he didn't mind me offering. I have plenty of references on this board if needed. Pm me if interested.
