I don't normally like re paints, but that looks rather good

All I can see is Illyria from Angel. That's not a bad thing though, she looks fantastic.

also her name is RED Sonja and not WHITE Sonja.

Lol, fair point. If you check the background of the first pic, however, you'll see that Red Sonja will always remain red. I just had an extra portrait lying around, so I decided to create an original look.

As for another poster's question of whether Vicente does these kinds of requests often, I would recommend checking out his Facebook page: Statue Repaint. Due to amazing artistic integrity of his work, he probably has a big backlog at this point, but it's worth a shot!

I really like what he does for the skin for this statue. I PM'd him about a price but he never replied. :/

Yeah, I also sent him a message about pricing on repainting a statue and never got a response either. Pretty pathetic to flat out ignore potential customers, if you ask me.

Not pathetic at all; he’s probably just very busy and may have a sizeable backlog. He’s only one person. I’d give it some time.

Lol you must be new to customs if you expect a timely response

[NorthernLadMSP]

Yeah, I'm new to customs. You've uncovered the mystery. No, I choose to go with people who respond. I've had people say they have a huge months-long waiting list, but hey at least they took the time to tell me that instead of flat out ignoring my question. Those are the people I would get on a waiting list for.

Actually, every customizer I have ever contacted got back to me within a week. Even sculptors get back to me in a timely manner. They will usually schedule you in. It might be a year before they get to your piece, but they don't ignore you. I do the same with my commissions, I would never ignore business. It is a bad practice. A lot of us actually know each other, due to being in these forums for years. Reputations get around fast.

So, no, a lot of us aren't new to customs.
