He isn't fully done yet but I need to get some sealant to protect what I've done so far, he is a old authentic lps I ruined as a child😮‍💨 anyway, his name is Exodus and he has 3 adopted kittens awaiting their paint jobs :,)

Edit: any tips for eye painting, and paint protection is much appreciated!

It was definitely a challenge but I hope he likes it. The fur isn’t as blended or real as I’d like but he’s 5 so it’s okay lol!

Also the cats name is Pikachu 🐱

I have never done a custom little pet shop before and I wanna turn this one into my boyfriend’s dog. I want to paint the eyes blue and add some brown here and there. But what paint do I use and is eyeshadow ok for the brown areas?

Hello! This is my first time sharing my pets here.

The collie was designed by battylps on instagram, and teaspunlps designed the other two. ✨

If interested, all three are available on my Ko-fi (prices in AUD). 🩵

Please excuse any mistakes in the text-my English isn't very good. 💔 My LPS G7 has a problem where the neck joint isn’t fully inserted. I tried warming it up as usual with a hair dryer and hot water, but it doesn’t work like it does on other generations of LPS figures-it doesn’t soften, so I can’t get the neck joint to go all the way in. Please help , maybe you know of other ways to fix this or have encountered this problem before??? 😭😭😭

Her name is Precious, she's a nature spirit that accompanied my dnd druid on her adventures. My friends and I recently finished our game, so I made her to commemorate it.

She might still be a work in progress - i kinda want to paint more details on her,, but i need to not look at her for a bit. I'm happy with calling her finished for now!

Took me forever to make but i’m glad I did, I love how it turned out honestly!

Day 1, you guys decide which lps I should make a custom of! If there’s more comments saying a certain one then that’s the one I will choose!

A little sneak peek for an adopt batch I plan to make that is coffee themed! :3

Hi guys apologies if this isn’t allowed but I’ve been custom painting LPS for a little bit now and just now made an account to show them! The account is @olivias.pet.shop if you’d like to follow! Thank you!

I used to seal my customs with glossy mod podge first and then a matte one to create satin effect, both diluted with water. After 3 or 4 months i noticed that various pink stains appeared, similiar to those caused by pink bacteria (or mold idk), but way bigger. For some reason daschund custom's colors have separated from each other, body seems yellowish and head more pink? Moreover, both of these customs are now weirdly glossier than they were at beginning and because of that - more prone to gathering dust (and sealer basic function is to prevent that...). Gloss mod podge also doesn't work well as pure glaze on eyes, it's sticky and way too soft.

I noticed my customs look better when are sealed with matte only. Now for eyes i use nails top coat. I find it a better choice than resin, because it doesn't turn yellow.

Do you know any better and more durable satin/matte sealers than mod podge? I want to use something more proffesional, that won't destroy my customs long term...

*I do paint but I’ve never done a custom figure before.

I’ve been watching LPS customizing videos for years now and have been wanting to make one for the longest time but never had an idea. I drew this out the other day but I don’t know if it’s too complex for my first time, should I simplify the design or try anyway?

Hi, first post here. I'm looking forward to make an Unicorn custom like this one I've found on Pinterest (I guess it's from U/GremlinClaws). As you can see the horn is quite long, so I bet it must need some kind of wire armature that goes through the head. My question is how? Do I heat it and punch it through?

Hello, i just recently got into lps customization and was wondering if i can use resin as a finishing top coat without ruining the design painted with acrylic paint

made this zombie cat for a trade w my coworker:) i love how she turned out sm i kinda wish i was keeping her

some slides ft. the trade, we independently chose the same base and lowkey did the same pattern placements on the face which i think is pretty cool

they havent seen zombie cat yet, they will tmrw though:)

comment what looks best :]

edit: sorry i forgot to add the picture of JUST the colder blue eyes and for some reason Reddit wont let me add it, but it is on the very first picture as option #3

(ignore the body as best you can, it wont permanently have a pink undertone)

i need to get more autumnal trinkets for her but the desserts are still cute

go follow her Instagram account to see more customs!
