CoolProps Lifesize City Hunter Predator Bust Repaint

Been awhile since I posted here but wanted to share this. Recently Just finished this repaint of the CoolProps City hunter bust for a client. This is a full repaint from top to bottom (except the eyes as the factory ones are ok I think) as in completely primed and starting from scratch. I stripped the mouth first to get rid of the epoxy resin then removed the teeth and quills. As for the quills, when I put them back I rearranged them and added some extra to better match the original. This was a tricky bust to do as its all one piece with some hard to reach areas, but got there in the end

Thanks so much! Yeah its a shame they are not painted like this from the factory. But tbh then i'd be out of the job. ;)
 
Such an awesome looking fix to a cool prop where the paint job pulls the appreciation down.

You really brought justice to the piece with your new paint job and detail fixes.

Saw one of these up close back when the 4K theater screenings of Predator came out in Denmark. Someone had lent them to the theater to display at the foyer. They were clearly repainted from stock look - had both this one and the Sideshow P1 bust - and looked as cool as yours. I got excited by how they looked and went online to look for some... only to see how they looked from the companies... and their sold-out inflated after market prices... and I said: nope.
