Portraits, props and one-off pieces

Not every job fits a category. A portrait from a photo, a pair of rollerblades, a piece for a man cave or theme room, a 3D-printed prop that needs a real paint job. If it holds paint, ask.

Questions

Custom Pieces: straight answers

Can you paint a portrait from a phone photo?

Usually, yes. Send the sharpest version you have. If it's too blurry for the detail you want, Ruben will tell you before you pay.

Do you paint 3D-printed props?

Yes. Send photos of the print and tell him what it's printed in, and he'll say how he'll prime and finish it.
