I never put this on here, but this is a mock-up I made. If he ends up looking like this to some extent, I will be happy. (Ignore the pants, I had difficulty making them white )

The Vegeta looks weird with his eyes painted black. Overall, I wasn't very pleased with the final Shodo products, but I wanted a SS God Goku figure, so it led to me buying them. Goku looks better with black hair although I love the color of his God form as well.

Alright, I'm finally done with this... I think it came out fairly well for my first real attempt at a custom. It has plenty of issues, but whatever, It was a learning experience. I also ended up with a Hearthstone of leftover apoxie, because I'm wasteful

Whoa you mixed up a lot of apoxie! I usually use two jelly bean size amounts. Bojack looks pretty good! I need to look at him on my computer. The size looks good. He kind of reminds me of Blanka from Street Fighter

I am going to give you two opinions. One that will make you feel good and fuzzy and another that will motivate you to do better. First, from an honest point of view, considering this is your 1st custom, he is really neat. You paint well for a beginner. The pants got a little blotchy, but you painted the shoes and skin well. I'd prefer a lighter green like Wave suggested, but again, for a beginner, you did fine. His hair, though not bulky, was sculpted very symmetrically in the back. That's a tough feat. Even though his face doesn't take on a direct Bojack look, it still has enough to strike a small resemblance and have that "real life" expression kind of thing going on. Good after-effects too in the images. Score: 8/10 Now, from a strict point of view. Pretty much the view I have on any custom that isn't a 'first.' Props: His height and size are accurate to me. You chose a good body base and I am glad you gave him a cloth type of accessory, so he could still pose. I also like the paint application. Everything went on smoothly from the waist up. The cons: the green should be lighter, but it isn't far off. Not like you painted it hunter green lol His face really doesn't look much like Bojack and his hair isn't even or spiky enough above his forehead. Still, you'll get better at this and you'll notice exactly what I mean in the future. His shoes are clunky but in all honesty, not as clunky as I expected once I saw the side view. I appreciate you sculpted the back of his hair in a way that he could still move his head around a bit, but try to avoid that real flat hair sculpt. Good paint job on the hair and nice scar. I like him for a beginner, but wouldn't personally want it. All I can say though, is that it was better than my first custom, and that you need to keep making more! Score: 6/10

Branjita For some reason, I had no concept of how much apoxie I was going to actually need when I started mixing it Adrenaline I thank you for the things you said you liked and I completely agree with the things you take issue with

Whenever I have leftover apoxie, I try to think of some cool Z accessory I could make. One time, I rolled up some Dragonball shaped apoxie, once made a little Dragon radar. You could make a magazine for Roshi, or purse for Bulma. Something that obviously doesn't take long and anyone can sculpt.

I think that he might look more accurate with a Jakks Bojack head on this body.

I can't imagine that being big enough.

It would be a little small if you did that.

It would make him look more buff though.

I'm thinking about making another custom. Hopefully, one that I actually like. Bojack has been banished to my closet Anyways, I'm thinking about making Super 17 and using this as a base body. It's got the height I want and a similar body shape. I probably won't be starting on it soon or anything, but I've been thinking about it for weeks Obviously there will be a lot of work involved since it's a practically nude body, but I intend to laboriously work until I have something that I'm actually willing to display.
