LOOKS GREAT!!!! Cant see the flaws but to touch any up,go back in with a real fine brush and black paint to do cut ins on any overlapping into the black,like the green edges where it may not be straight,or out of the lines etc.,chest etc.IF you have any flaws that is,Im just suggesting if you have any!! GREAT JOB!!

hi, ive got a few of those recasts. theyre hit or miss. i got an ultraman that has dents and pitting cast into it. primer and sanding wasnt anything i had planned on. i recently bought a lathe and make a lot of my own parts now. i like garage kits, but total bootlegs often have imperfections. its sometimes easier to start from scratch.

I figure if it has imperfections I can fill it with sculpey and slow-cook it, then sand it flat.. Its on the way right now, be here in a week or so.
