From the pics on the site, the work looks top quality, especially those Wu-Tang 8 Diagram joints. But I haven't seen them in person to inspect actual quality. You seem like you had a bad experience! :lol:

Naw no bad experience here. :lol:
I have seen his wrok personally and I dont like his paint jobs unless they are very plain and I dont like the glossy paint he uses aswell. If you go to the GC in Hollywood you can see some of his Wu Tang work on the MV (its up in a glass case sitting next to the MPC 5000).
Im just not a fan of his paint jobs and specially the ones with artwork.

You do not get the clientele that he has by doing $#!++y work. Also I am quite sure that you can get the paint as flat as you want it, Most customers probably opted for the clear-coat for extra protection. :wink:

The plain ones that he does are okay but I wouldnt pay that kinda money for okay looking work. The ones with graphics are TERRIBLE.

One thing that you have to keep in mind, is that I'm pretty sure he gives the customer what they want, meaning that they (The Customer) probably suggest the color scheme, graphics, etc. Not Him! So you can't blame him if something turns out WHACK!!!!!

So the water/ waves on the edge of the first one look good?

The BME Click shark actually looks like the one from their group logo?

Even the Wu Tang ones look terrible. The only Wu one that is dope is the black/ yellow one with the RZA mask.

The dude sucks period. Only the plain ones are okay... I know alot of other cats that could drop better grafs on the MPC if they chose to. You cant say Forat gets down with his drawings. The actual quality of his drawings are not good whether the customer chose that scheme or that image you cant say he is a good artist.

The only MPC that he has done and that I actually like is DJ Quiks 3k.
