Figure Repainting · Philippines

The sculpt is fine.
The paint is the problem.

A good figure can arrive flat, muddy, too glossy, or nothing like the reference. I strip the finish back to its decisions, then rebuild the color, depth, and character by hand.

What changes

More depth.
More control. More life.

01

Full Repaint

A complete new finish when the original paint is not worth preserving. New color calls, shading, highlights, details, eyes, surface treatment, and protective coat.

02

Style Change

Realistic, cel-shaded, manga-inspired, weathered, monochrome, cleaner, darker, or closer to a specific source. The sculpt stays. The visual language changes.

03

Focused Correction

Faces, skin tones, eyes, armor, cloth, weapons, or other areas that pull the whole figure down. Sometimes the right fix is smaller than a full repaint.

What I need

Send the figure
before you send the figure.

Start with photos. Front, back, both sides, close shots of the face, and any damage or finish problem. Include the reference you want me to match and tell me what currently bothers you.

I will tell you whether the piece needs a full repaint, a focused correction, repair first, or no intervention at all. Not every figure benefits from more paint.

  • Clear photos in neutral light
  • Height and material, if known
  • Your target reference or visual style
  • Damage, loose parts, or previous paint work
  • Your deadline and location
  • Original packaging, if the figure will be shipped

Selected repaints

Same object.
A different presence.

The process

Careful in.
Careful out.

Assessment

I inspect the photos, identify the work, and flag risks such as brittle parts, unknown coatings, glued joints, or existing damage.

Arrival and prep

Once the figure arrives, I document its condition, disassemble only where safe, clean the surface, mask, sand, and prime as needed.

Repaint

Brush and airbrush work build the finish in layers. You receive progress photos before the final protective coat locks decisions in.

Return

The piece is cured, checked, photographed, and packed for pickup or shipping. Moving parts and delicate projections get special handling.

No size limit. No automatic yes.

I can repaint small figures and large statues, but condition matters. If the material, damage, or old coating makes the job unsafe, I will say so before your piece travels.

Start with photos

Show me what the factory
did not finish.

Send clear images, the size, the target look, and your location. I will tell you what the repaint actually needs.
