Agreed!
This is a true work of art! Congratulations man!
The Abel Theme would most likely look like this. Since they are the same colors. But donāt let me stop you B15. Best stick of the month award would be a tie from the Bruce Lee stick and this Chunli! Honorable mention would be that V-tech stick. Should have colored my man. LOL
we re all waiting for that paint video b15sdm
what kind of wood are you using?
plz share ā¦
its F@k!n awesome ⦠great job b15sdm
Holy cow meus, how did you get this stuff so easy? i want one so bad lmao
i have few more coming in also new in box. i get them at ebay.
B15, that stick is ridiculous! Wow, that paint job is sick and I love the yellow and black strip you got running alongside the box with the start and home buttons marked. Just sweet!
That stick looks awesome. I love the light wood and the clean looking artwork. Great job by everyone involved.
Looks great. The all grey theme and the mesh ball top look :tup: and the shape of the stick is pretty slick too. Congrats on being owner number 8, hopefully you decide to keep it.
I donāt think anything else needs to be said about this stick, it is simply amazing. I donāt know how you do it man but you seem to top yourself with every stick you make. I think we should institute a drug testing policy for stickmakers because only peds could allow you to make a stick that awesome. The playing field isnāt fair, just admit it man, youāre juicing arenāt you, lol.
I agree with pretty much everyone else, this stick is awesome. Love the bison one you did as well.
Iām going to go against the grain here a little, b15, and say that your stick looks like absolute shit. S-tier GARBAGE. Send it to me to prove me wrong.
Really though, fantastic work yet again. I donāt know whether to be motivated to finish work on my newest, or to be discouraged, curl up in a ball and cry myself to sleep over the fact that it wonāt be nearly as awesome.
Thanks for the compliment. I just try my best to bring innovative ideasdesigns to my custom stick builds. Im currently in the middle of building another one which Im just working on the art work for. I will put that up shortly aswell (end of the week). I got 5 blank cases sitting hereā¦if you got any ideas as to what characters I should base them on let me know. I was thinking of doing a Seth one, I know hes a cheap character in some peoples opinion but there is soo much potential for a stick based on him.
Lol@juicingā¦not yet my friendā¦
Rampage⦠LMAO@curling up into a ball and crying next to a half built stick, I could actually visualise something like that.
I always wanted to see this concept done well: One character, as they progressed through the years.
Bison, Sagat, Chun, or Ryu would be ideal for this, imho.
I think Iām going to take a course in how to do a proper paint job. That is truely awesome! How did you do the stripes on it?
I sort of done that with the chun li one I just finished. The back art shows the different stages of her life as she is growing up and the front art is of her when she is mature.
I was going to do a ryu stick but I am sooooooo sick of fighting them (ryu, ken sagat) online that it has put me off them.
Yeah, I forgot to mention it but I LOVED the art on the bottom of that stick.
I have too many sticks, or I would buy that chun stick right now. I think I have four now, including the first Steve Tren stick that he put up here in 2009:

Its all to do with layers and alot of masking.
First I had the case primered using a high build primer. wet sanded it down till I was working with 800 grit wet and dry paper.
Then I sprayed the case in a yellow basecoat (mixed a hint of candy apple red to take the edge off the bright yellow).
once it had dried I then used fine masking tap to create the yellow line you see. I used a 5mm fineline masking tape.
I then sprayed it with a black basecoat and once this had dried I then layed fine masking tape over either side of the yellow line. That way anything I spray over (such as the blue) wont affect the yellow/black lines.
Next step is to spray with a metalic/candy base coat, here I used blue. Allow to dry.
Then I created the marble effect in the paint.
Once all basecoats and effects have been applied simply peel off all the masking tape I applied earlier and then spray several coats of clear coat laquer.
BTW, I been watching your veiwlix cabinet build worklogā¦I always think to my self I would love to paint something like that.
Personally Iād love to see what you could do with an idea for a Blanka/Akuma stick, but thatās just me. Love your paintjobs, never get tired of seeing your stuff.
sexy chun li stick b15 the best stick i ever seen with her in itā¦
and he did do a blanka 1 b4
