Weah, Chelsea

This is my second George Weah repaint, in recent times.

The other showed his time at Man City.

According to Wiki, Weah's time in England was deemed a success! (Not really sure who by!)

He did manage 5 goals in 15 appearances for Chelsea, including some key goals in their FA Cup run. He was 34 at the time, so i guess his record isn't bad.

Scott Partridge, Bath City

So, here is the 4th of my Bath City repaints!

This one uses a lookalike as club legend Scott Partridge!

I don't have much else to say about this one, other than I know it was bought as a gift, and, according to the guy that bought it, it "went down a storm"!

I'll settle for that :)

Here's a pic of the real kit:

More Adjustments!

In a short spell where orders had died down for a bit, I decided to improve some of the figures in my collection that were previously still "as released"; the "unrepainted" aspect of my collection, if that makes sense!

It is something I've done before, as these blog posts on Gary McAllister and Jack Charlton show, and I recently just thought to myself; "Why did I stop there?!"

One of the things I didn't particularly like about a lot of the Leeds figures was the clarity of the badges, which were just printed in yellow, so I did something about it!

Ferdinand, on the left has the original, printed badge, while Bowyer has the new one. I think it works!

I also decided to add Champions League sleeve patches to the 2000/01 Leeds figures that I own, as modeled here by Jason Wilcox!

Little things, but after years of repainting, I started to think; "Why should my repaints be more detailed than the original figures, when I could do something about it?!"

Bianchi, Torino

Here's my second Torino repaint (the first being a Quagliarella Prostar)

This one is a Microstar, which I've done surprisingly few of so far! They are similar in size to Soccerstarz figures, and as far as I'm aware, it's only the bases that are noticeably different.

I was pleased with how this turned out; the Kappa logos on the side were definitely an achievement!!

Bianchi himself favourited an this image when it was sent to him on Twitter... not by me incidentally!

Always nice to be described as 'Very talented'!
