Custom repainting of ARH statues?

This is not a criticism of ARH.

Mass producing statues is one thing ... Master painting one offs is a whole 'nother thing!
Has anyone gone down this path?
Was looking around the web and found these two amazing examples!

I'm considering doing this with an upcoming one myself!
Anyone else?

Ha. Well he looks more like a real soldier than a god with the custom color scheme but to each their own.
Extremely high quality job though!

The red version is miles better than the gold. The gold looks pretty cheesy on Ares.

I recommend a good painter for you . His name is Arahom and owns the company. Here is some of his work!
Leonidas Battle Fury. Achilles Battle Fury. ARES Golden Edition. Enjoy!

That's a terrible gold Arahom used on that statue. I owned both and the red is superior. Even though Arahom painted yours better than the factory (although the skin tone on yours looks even worse) it still looks cheesy because the gold is too light. He repainted my Athena with a darker richer gold and it looks amazing.
