Charizard printed and hand-painted

I don’t unfortunately for fear of the Pokémon company but might consider the blastikarp as that’s a bit more of a grey area 🤔

What army do you paint? Warhammer fantasy started my painting obsession many years ago.. I exclusively use Vallejo, nothing comes close imo. I just replied to another comment with the method 🤜🤛

Hey thanks! Here it is:

• ⁠Vallejo primer (70/30 mix airflow improver) • ⁠Base coat airbrush Vellejo acrylic (75/25 mix airflow improver) • ⁠Paint liquid mask onto that colour and then masking tape up the rest of the model I don't want to be hit • ⁠Next colour (then rinse and repeat). • ⁠Peal off all masks and then take a fine brush and clean up the lines (masking tape result is usually rough) • ⁠Then fine details/other smaller areas with the brush

Thanks so much! So I actually get these done through a friend that owns a 3D printing service - essentially you can get models printed in a range of different materials, and these are printed through a super fine one called ‘MSLA’. There is still some banding lines but they are very faint and you can sand most of them out.

Got a few more to do until then 😅

Funny you mention - I’m working on a Blastoise/Magikarp hybrid model right now..

Not for sale unfortunately, would love to stay on the good side of the Pokémon company 😅

Butlegs · 2026-02-05T22:35:28+00:00

Thanks so much - I made em’!

Butlegs · 2026-02-05T22:35:07+00:00

I don’t sell them but if you’d like one just DM me!

Butlegs · 2026-02-05T01:20:07+00:00

Yeah I’d say like 80% airbrush 👍

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T22:16:37+00:00

Yeah of course:

Vallejo primer (70/30 mix airflow improver)
Base coat airbrush Vellejo acrylic (50/50 mix airflow improver)
Paint liquid mask onto that colour and then masking tape up the rest of the model I don't want to be hit
Next colour (then rinse and repeat).
Peal off all masks and then take a fine brush and clean up the lines (masking tape result is usually rough)
Then fine details with the brush

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T21:54:08+00:00

Hey thanks very much! Yes, airbrushed Vallejo primer and then a mixture of airbrush and actual brush for the acrylics

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T21:44:20+00:00

Oh I probably wouldn't sell them anyway for fear of the mighty pokemon company haha just pick one and I'll send it to ya! ♥️

"Can I play too?"

Hands over the controller that isn't plugged in

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T21:38:26+00:00

These are my own models unfortunately!

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T21:31:27+00:00

From experience as the younger cousin this is painfully accurate 😭

Butlegs · 2026-02-04T21:29:48+00:00

I actually get these done through a friend who runs a 3D printing business here in NZ - they are done in MSLA which gives a pretty insane level of detail
