Hey TP,

I saw an all white Vatalion on eBay, but the price was horrendous, so I decided to do my own version. I havn't painted anything in over 3 years, so it was nice to open up all my airbrush equipment again. I had a loose plan and just went with the creative flow. Hope you all enjoy the process. 🙏🏻

$171.99 on eBay

Base layer white pearl:

Megabass-Martini anyone?

0W4A4714

I painted several colors but forgot to pause for photos, so this is a big jump forward:

0W4A4716

A little more brown than I originally intended, but it was fun seeing the layers develop so I just went with it:

0W4A4718

Original eyes were re-installed, rotated to give it that looking-back effect:

Time for clear coat:

0W4A4721

The gill plates got the most attention by far:

0W4A4724

After drying a couple days and putting the hardware back on, it was time for a little photo shoot:

0W4A4728

Did my best to capture the detail, but that white side is tough to photograph:

Thanks for viewing!

God Bless you all!

Holy SCHITE homie, that is incredible and gorgeous work!  Adam you could make a decent second income doing this, granted that it doesn't take away the enjoyment of your craft and art, and of course your precious time.

Thanks for sharing, bro.

@triple_illusion 

$50-$60 for your labor and talents.  If you can price right around $100, you should move them quick.

Each or both? I listed them elsewhere for $70 a piece but no takers so far.
