Pezpaintalog june-july

[reef obsidian]

Repaint a pez head, post your before and after photo. The final painted version doesn't have to be faithful to the original character ☺️
@solid frost @idle comet @rigid breach

[eager lotus]

Maybe I'll join...but I have plenty other more urgent minis to paint...

[idle comet]

Already looking at the pez. So many options. Super heroes would be the easy choice..

[reef obsidian]

I have a charmander one sitting around here somewhere

[idle comet]

Saw a mission to mars astronaut that i might get actually. Simple but the chance for some flexing on the helmet reflections

[hardy lark]

I’ll join this one - I have a few too many sitting around

[solid frost]

My two picks, probably going to go with Rapunzel

[idle comet]

Awesome choice

[hardy lark]

Also, while people are prepping, I find them to be annoying and top heavy/prone to falling over. I put milliput and nails(for weight) in the bottom of mine to offset that and they stand up pretty well.

[eager lotus]

Can't you just fill'em with candies?

[hardy lark]

😮

Probably, I gave the candies to a nephew. I also didn’t really want to keep mine functional either though

[rigid breach]

Smart!

[rigid breach]

I can't be trusted with candy

[nocturne sigil]

Open to suggestions.

[hardy lark]

That’s quite a collection wow. That Lucy one is a little terrifying though lol

[nocturne sigil]

Lol. The arms and feet are an add on. Pez used to want to make them more collectible.

I have a motorized dispenser as well as a “pez pet”

[eager lotus]

Nice collection, Taz is a great one, also the moustach guy might be fun!

[solid frost]

You have some classics in there

[idle comet]

I’m thinking this cutie

I can paint an alien or a supernova reflected

Or even try and make it transparent and show their face

[rigid breach]

omg so adorable

[rigid breach]

okay wow What a collection! I think any of these are great options! I probably wouldn't open the sealed ones but I definitely feel like one of the sesame streets would be a cool options

[kindred dragon]

This paintalong is brilliant

[solid frost]

It will be my first bust

[kindred dragon]

lkol

I should order a Pez dispenser and do this.

[rigid breach]

Do it!

[kindred dragon]

I think my wife likes Mario.

[next kraken]

Turn it into Wario ? 😉

[kindred dragon]

That's clever.

She knows who Waluigi is, kind of. I'm not certain she knows Wario.

Also #paintapez on instagram

[kindred dragon]

Well

There's some aspirational goals.

[idle comet]

So sorry man

[hallow meadow]

Dont have a Pez as my son forbade me to paint one of his 5. And notbuyingshitalong means I cant buy one (if I could even find one). But I'll have fun seeing what you guys come up with.

[kindred dragon]

Don't worry, the paintalong runs through July! You'll have time!

[hallow meadow]

I can always ask my sister if her now older boys still have pez they don't want. That would not count as buying. My sis might have tossed them out already. But never hurts to ask.

[next kraken]

or broadcast to friends that the next person eating some should give you their empty pez instead of disposing of it?

[hallow meadow]

Noone in the pez buying age/kids with pez buying age. Ah well otherwise I will try and hunt for one after the quitbuyingshitalong 🙂

Would prefer to find one head and shoulders. But head only seems to be vastly more common

[topaz lark]

This paint along is almost perfect timing, been pondering a birthday present for my mom (a pez collector who is also hard to shop for) with a june birthday

Just gotta try and subtly ask if I could have one of her duplicates for reasons

[hardy lark]

This really sent me down a rabbit hole

I was looking for that jack sparrow one, that is actually pretty nice. Someone on eBay is selling lots of 100 for $25 and I was pretty tempted I think my partner would yell at me though

That’s an impressive collection!

[rigid breach]

Oooi

[topaz lark]

That's not even all of them 😅 she's got another 30 gallon tote of them that she's waiting on my dad to make display boxes for

[rigid breach]

Oh snap. Soon she'll build a house out of pez!

[topaz lark]

Between the pez and her stock of quilt fabric she probably could lol

[rigid breach]

I mean quilts are love in a fiber formate!

[idle comet]

Oh wow

Saw those star wars ones thinking bet they are expensive- on ebay for £3 for 6 of them

C3po would be fine

*fun

[forest basalt]

I happened to find this in the supermarket today and decided to buy it for this paint along

[solid frost]

That’s awesome

[rigid breach]

This is the one I got but will look for ideas

[hallow meadow]

I have one! Found it in my mailbox just now. Not sure who put it in there but it has to be one of 4 people. Only 4 know of this. My mom, my sister, my friend and an aquintance of mine from the appartmentbuilding I live in. Going to put my Sherlock Holmes hat on and investigate. I have a strong suspicion.

Suspicion confirmed. My friend told her teen (Who also knows me well since birth). They told their mom they had seen one that really fitted me (soooo not me, barbie and pink). They had a chuckle about it. Joked that atleast my son would not be wanting this one (very true). And my friend told me to make pink barbie into punk barbie.

[nocturne sigil]

Its a Paint Along Miracle!

[solid frost]

Look what my wife just scored on Facebook

[idle comet]

That is what i call precious

[next kraken]

where the heck do you guys find all these pezzes...?!

[solid frost]

In the US they’re pretty easy to get

[hardy lark]

Prepped

[solid frost]

Those sculpts look amazing compared to others

[hardy lark]

I was a little disappointed with the jack sparrow before I primed it. The Dave’s jones is quite nice

[solid frost]

Davie Jones looks crazy detailed

[kindred dragon]

I changed my mind after seeing yours primed.

I think I'm now doing a cat.

And maybe will wind up doing two of them, and giving them to my wife.

[hallow meadow]

Those look great to paint up. Will prime my barbie one soon see what I am left with detail wise. Fearing the worst. Think I will have to do a lot of freehand to make it into something.

[opaque crag]

Randomly found this at home

Gonna ask the wife if I can have it

[unborn sentinel]

You shit I want that grevious one.

[topaz lark]

Your friendly neighborhood ebay reseller may be the way to go. My mom holds her collection in high regard

[unborn sentinel]

Yeah Google is leading me down that path

[opaque crag]

I could not have the Santa clause pez 😞

[hallow meadow]

Awwww. I feel your pain. I was denied my sons PEZs. Hopefully you find one to join.

[nocturne sigil]

Tyrants.

[kindred dragon]

Yeah I mean you're gonna make it BETTER.

[solid frost]

I have extra Pez dispensers if anyone needs one that’s in the US. Feel free to hit me up if you want one 😃

I have a Luigi one also

[solid frost]

I forgot to say that these are free and I’ll even ship them to you for free 😃

That way you don’t get the boot from #1225492558923174051

[kindred dragon]

W're so close to Pez Time

[hallow meadow]

Origional and primed.

[hardy lark]

Lookin good

[hallow meadow]

Almost time to start. Going to try and make it a limited pallet. 5 paints: Black, red, 2 skin colors, ivory.

[hallow meadow]

Color test. Yep should work. These paints and these paints alone.

[kindred dragon]

Tomorrowwwwwww

[hallow meadow]

I got into the flow and before I knew it it was done. Or in other words I really got into it and squeezed every painting moment out of the day the family allowed for 😉 Have to say having a very limited colorpallet helped a lot in the workflow and speed. Also helped that the rose freehand went without a hitch or needing corrections.

[idle comet]

Just ordered mine

[solid frost]

What did you order??

[kindred dragon]

Waiting for a bunch of primer to cure at the moment. Very exciting.

[unborn sentinel]

Awwww that a cutie

[idle comet]

Mars mission

[kindred dragon]

Somehow managed to botch airbrushing for the first time ever??? But whatever let’s just run with it.

[hardy lark]

Painted this for another discords challenge, pretty unhappy with it (not a great sculpt on this one, very triangular) so I misty phoned it in after the face. Going to take another crack at a different pez later

[hallow meadow]

Think it came out well concidering the base you had. It definitely isn't the paintjob. You definitely improved it a lot.

[idle comet]

I think it looks solid

[hardy lark]

You’re both too kind - looking forward to seeing others!

[idle comet]

Well this is cute

[nocturne sigil]

It should be. It’s made from 80% recycled pet.

[topaz lark]

Apparently mom has been giving out her doubles as halloween trick or treats so these were the only duplicates I could snag.

Will probably do Thor since i'm not sure how I would spruce up dory and I don't know nothing about painting robots

[forest basalt]

Primed Grogu

[rigid breach]

The putty over the candy portion makes it look like grogu is some weird tall nightmare version 🤣

[forest basalt]

Started with the first colors

[forest basalt]

My Grogu is finished. It was the first time for me to use only oil paints. I like where I got with the medium but I know there is still a long way to go until I will be satisfied

[rigid breach]

Repainted this kitty into the kitty from old school Sailor moon

[lean edge]

So cute!

[rigid breach]

Thank you! PS hope you are doing well 💛

[lean edge]

How can I not be good when I have your art!
||I’m doing well, thank you!| Appreciate it a lot.||

[rigid breach]

Glad to hear.

[lean edge]

I think I’ll go with Thor…

[topaz lark]

Finally got around to starting my Thor actually lol.
Sadly didn't finish for my mom's birthday like I planned, but I managed to come up with a backup gift so we're safe

[hardy lark]

Getting started on a second attempt liking this one better
