Pheno, do you think i should paint my custom more than just parts for one of the blox zoids it uses? I rwally like my buster eagle and dont want to paint that, but i could paint some parts and put SRC (gundam wing gundam) on hold. and wut about the different colors of blox? theyr different colors. Ill just have to do my best. I can chip paint off (i have and it sucked) but dont want too. maybe paint to match the other parts... Why not just buy another one to use for your custom? I really want to see painted Zoids you use, these customs should stay customs, not something you enter for this contest and then change it back to normal. Plus your chances of winning of going to be better the more work you put into it. -Phenotype

ok, i can do some work on paint jobs. I dont want to spend on another but if it buggs me too much i can have fun scraping the paint off. Or would it be fun...
and i remembered we have a camera that can take pics, and its attatched to the comp, so i can stretch it up to a table and make it look nice, and take a few pics.

You dont need to "scrape" the paint off. Use Fume Free Easy Off oven cleaner. Spray it on real good and let it sit for a couple hours or overnight, then use a tooth brush under running water and the paint will fall right off. Been using this method to remove paint from plastic models for years, nothing works better.

And where are we supposed to put our entries? Well, originally I was going to create a thread and have everyone post them on there but I realize many of you don't have your own server you can upload the images to so I'm toying with the idea of posting them on my site. -Phenotype

Hey Pheno, I've got a butt load of space on my AngelFire account, and if anybody needs it to be hosted so they can put it up, just get them to email them to me, i think my email on my user info.

Hey Quatre, thats all you have to do is paint the rest of the blox/zoids parts in the color scheme as Buster Eagle or a similar one.

Well... I got a question, whats the best way to paint a zoid? By hand or spray paint? I'm having a hard time desiding if I want to enter my Gojulas Giga custom (in the works) or my Gravity Saix custom (In planing), the Thunder Saix.

The zoid would not be customized then, now would it? Besides, if that was allowed, it would be basically taking a huge "crap"* on the people who actually bothered to customize their zoid. *I see the swear filter is back on
