2B rework
I randomly bought this figure because it was cheap and looked like it would be fun to repaint: Apparently she’s a character from a game about existentialist robots in search…
Rikka figure re-repaint
This Rikka figure was the first pvc figure I tried to repair some shipping damage on, but I didn’t match the color very well and it left her unevenly shiny.…

A Banpresto prize figure I got new for $23, this was perhaps the most sloppily finished one I’ve received so far. Fortunately she came in several parts so fixing was…
