I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Just to clarify, it's not mine. Pics were posted on Facebook.

This is true, I returned my DP due to a noticeable gap between the portrait and the body that resulted in an unstable head; my replacement had paint specks on both portraits.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

The water base is epic, it also is awesome that he added the eyes to the statue as well.

Hey guys, those are my pics, and glad you guys approve . I originally kept the base Silver, but wanted to try a more iridescent blue effect look to go with the water. I like how it came out, but I may darken to look more navy, or may just go back to silver lol.

Stripping the paint was a very tedious process -_-
