Id definately like to give the ritdye a go when dyeing black parts... Let me know how you get on Ross, Andys earlier experiments have left me trying to hunt some down...

f*ck it, ive already stopped bothering as far as customs on here go, i post the odd one or two, but im thinking my dio may have to find a more suitable home. shame, it's kinda AF as sas force will have a fairly major part. i may just post it on my blog.
some really good people on here, a couple im not so keen on.
never mind, maybe it's time for me to grow up a bit anyway, ive got a serious job on the go now as far as band artwork goes, logo, backdrop & possible cd artwork. sweet metal band from germany, recently signed with album deals so i guess i should put more time into that & put this on the back burners anyway.

recently found a shop that sells ritdye, so im going to start experimenting with that.
Stop moping, man! I love your work!

Post your tutorials at once!

I'd be interested in seeing dio's & tips from you Ross, or indeed anybody who'll care to post 'em..I may not make many custom's myself, but I always find it interesting to see behind the scenes..so to speak.

I've done it on a couple of figs, namely to replace broken hands, the rivets never quite look the same....but at least they can hold a gun now!
