Spurs 12-13

Here are a few Spurs Soccerstarz figures that only needed slight adjustments! 

I thought I'd put them all in the same post, being as they're all in the same kit. Here are Kaboul, Dembele, Sigurdsson and Caulker:

If I remember rightly, I had to change the shorts, and add the blue trim to the shirts and socks.

When adding the pictures to this blog post, they didn't come up in number order, so I had to delete them, and add them again.

Here's a picture of the kit to compare it to... worn by none of the players I repainted!

England: Let the Euro 2000 figures commence!

So, you've seen World Cup '98, Euro '96 and Italia '90 repaints on this blog; here come the Euro 2000 ones... in number order, of course!

If these series of England repaints have taught me one thing, it's that Martin Keown went to way more tournaments than I remembered! And that Corinthian didn't expect him to!

This kit was fairly simple to repaint. The thin white stripe on around the collar and cuffs being the most interesting bit!

I also was able to use the spot on shirt number font, which you'll know pleases me if you've followed this blog for a while!

I had it from when I did this Michael Bridges repaint for a Leeds fan, who wanted to commemorate Bridges' u21 caps!

Here's the kit (via historical kits):

Another Christmas present, this one; a lookalike figure to make Yohan Cabaye.

This Palace kit was an interesting and fairly tricky one to do! Almost every repaint of a striped shirt that I've done has been symmetrical, but this kit isn't.

I'll quickly add that it's meant to be asymmetrical and this wasn't just a painting error!

Apart from that, I had the usual job for lookalike figures of filling the base and printing the new name on. I also had to change the hair colour, and do the beard.

Here's Cabaye:

500 up!

As many of you will know, I also showcase my repaints on a Facebook page.

Recently, I celebrated a milestone that I'm not sure I ever really thought I'd get to; 500 likes!

Seaman x2, Leeds

I've done Seaman, who never played a competitive game for Leeds' first XI(!), once before!

Here's a second one- a microstar for my own collection, and another prostar, showing some people collect in just as obsessive a manner as me!

Both figures were painted in the customary 1980s Goalkeeper plain green! The only decision I really had to make was whether to put him in number 1, or the traditional 13 of the second choice goalie!
