I have always painted the blasters I send with white poster paint and mark "White Space Toy" on the customs forms. Also, UPS seems to get stuff through UK customs the best.

I have half my back done, 3/4 of my right leg (all Star Wars), about 1/4 of my left leg and then others thrown in randomly So here is some of my- work kinda... ------------ -------------- and some older pics of my thigh...more has been worked on: --------------- -------------

Just an FYI...they are currently out of 9, 10 and 11 sizes. And as indicted above, there is a run to be complete in 6 to 7 weeks. Now I have to wait to spend the money!

About to head out to the beach with the wife for some night surfing!

I needed something fatty to soak up the fun I had last night.... Double Cheeseburger with Jalapenos from Whataburger.... I am regretting it now

I disagree that Staff members should not be allowed to be voted for. There are several staff members that have gone above and beyond. I vote that staff are elligble. Also, I nominate, Smitty, TK 2126 MD, and Stomper. And more to come!

So how many does that make Mark? Beautiful as always!

LOL...not sure about that....maybe when I can But as of right now, I will help anyone trying to get blasters into europe or spray paint for that matter

Billy is a saint, as are everyone else here. That is why I try to pay it forward......

Not a problem Aaron. I work in export sales and will check with my forwarders and shippers. Just let me know.

Aaron...if you need some Rustoleum Pro Enamel, let me know and I will send some your way

DEfinitely use sandable primer and Rustoleum Pro Enamel. I had never painted anything liek my bucket before (I had painted my jeep and a deer blind with rattle can but it was a rush job) It was really easy to use both the primer (Only needed to be lightly sanded) and the Pro Enamel.

Very true! Billy is the best friend ever! He has unknowingly added to my growing list of things to do. However, this will be going to the top!

So today at work, I received a package: It is a package from my friend Billy across the pond. Now I didn't know what to expect, he said it would be a surprise....but man was I blown away by what was in the box: Now I just need my undersuit and boots!! Thanks again Billy!!!!

Thanks Billy and Pablo. Just what I was looking for! Where did that paint brush go?

Thanks Thayne! Need to thank you too for your support.

IT'S DONE!!!! I know it's not the best looking one...but I am darn proud. This is my first model/replica ever finished. Again, I couldn't have done it without Billy. Thanks also go out to CAP, Mike (TK4510), Missingpieces and all the staff and great members on this site! Off to go work on a blaster!

Got the paint run fixed! Now all I got to do is paint the small details! Thanks again to Billy and Paul! Finally have contributed something useful! LOL Next up....the blaster!

Oh don't worry Billy! The blaster is being worked on as we speak! Alas...I have found that there is a paint run on my bucket! So I will have to sand it out and re-spray...more waiting...

Yep busted the cherry! After two coats of Rustoleum Pro Enamel Gloss White: Got to let it sit But I bought the Testors 1138 and I got a week off without pay so I have time.........

Congrats Billy!!! Good on you!

Alright...this is how it started. I used Rustoleum Plastic Primer.... That stuff is shiny! I don't know what I was scared of...that was pretty easy. Got a little on my Jeep though... Thanks to Missingpieces, Mike, and Billhag! More to come...gonna put another layer on later

So because Billy has kicked me in the butt for letting my CAP helmet sit on a shelf uncomplete and collecting dust....I am going to finish it. Here it is: Right after I opened the box: Billy lit a fire underneath me and I am nervous as this is my first helmet and my first attempt at painting. More to come later tonight........

Billy......Just let me know and we will smuggle it out again!

That can't be the same one I sent! Nicely done sir! BTW...started on mine today.
