Wow! Amazing repaints!! I really love the king cheetah and saola!

Thank you all! :) :)

Oh gosh...such beautiful work. The Nilgai looks real!

Nice work

Impressive work tonihan24

Sorry for the late reply, again, I'm grateful you all like them :) I will try to post some more in the near future.

I already presented them in other part of the forum but I know some members don't visit some subforums so here are too:

I just realised I haven't been putting my repaints on here, I won't add all the horses cos there's just far, far too many of those, but here's all my other animals so far...

Papo cormorant

Wonderful array showing the talent on STS!

Wow, that hare is very well done, and the cormorant looks like exactly a photo of an alive one resting on a branch! But the most amazing of all is the quagga - what a level of perfection! You're very talented :)

Wow I didn't see the hare and quagga before, they're amazing! Especially the quagga...

Ahh, thank you, both of you! The quagga repaint was my contribution to the STS Model Painting Month we had as a sort of group activity on the forum earlier this year - it feels like a really long time ago now!
You can see a lot more photos of the finished repaint here :

(I don't know if it's possible to link to a single reply, but mine's the first animal to be completed so she's right there on page 1 of the topic)

And there's work-in-progress photos and talking about how I went about it here, over page 1 and 2 of this thread :

Those two threads are well worth a read through from start to finish if you've got time, some really varied and lovely custom work from a lot of forum members!

Thank you so much for the links! I really enjoyed looking through the posts and seeing so many beautiful repaints by talented forum members!

I assumed that the background for your Quagga was a picture but seeing that you went the extra mile and handmade an actual background is amazing!

I'm always so inspired by these repaints and I would love to maybe start some of my own when I'm on break from college and have some time.

CollectA African civet, after and before:

Highly successful. Exactly what the CollectA civet needed to be perfect.

Beautiful adjustments once again, using your knowledge of the species! Now looks much more realistic!

How to turn more realistic a figure that is as realistic as mass production allows. Surely your version is perfect but there is a very meritory work from CollectA behind.

Great job Isidro and George 

CollectA's sable:

The new paint on the horns was quite unsatisfactory, it was better in the original. I only wanted to darken the tips a bit but ended doing this mess. But after I applied carefully a scourer and the new result is much better than the one shown in the photo

Each and every one is fantastic!! I think the carpet shark, wild dog, and goat may be my favorites

Ray, tuna and Wild dog are my favorite ones but the goat is the most interesting.
Really fantastic works, Isidro!

Ohhh, dear me ! What can I say to all these fantastic works ?

WOW
