How does it grind?
Probably badly. But it looks good!
Havent tried. Will tell later…
Finished Finally! I want to say something tho, if I hadn’t had to do the full re color, I would have been done in 2-3 days easy.
I had a lot of trouble making it black and so…
So if you send me a yoyo for a simple speckle or splash, it will be done waaaay quicker than this one was.
Shipping out his PP Zombie today…
I’m available for orders :)…
I’ll make sure to tell people how it plays/feels so they can know for sure if they’re interested, it looks amazing. 
I have made my painting service into a company.
I am also painting a G5 for Northstarrocks…
Echo Caps painted with silver speckle.
Hard to see, and it looks like it has flaws, and it looks crappy, but it doesn’t-isint…
Camera, and my case make it look bad.
They will look good in a Red Echo tho! :).
NEW PIC NEW PIC NEW PIC
JUST IN JUST IN
MY PAINT IS WATERPROOF SO FAR!
I splash painted a old Spinstar and it fell into a just shocked Chlorine pool, and paint still stands.
Same with the Echo caps, I put them in my go big, missed a catch and it went into the water, for a long time. Paint still stands perfectly!
Hey BC,
I think your new business is great. It will help bring in a little yo-yo money! What colors do you have to offer? Do you have light green and dark green…or just regular green? Just curious what colors I could get.
Right now, no. I can get it tho if that’s what you would like tho…
Right now I’m using some left overs, or what I have. Silver White Black, main colors like that.
Is be happy to purchase some green, orange, blue, yellow, etc…
Duncan Butterfly.
It was a extra for practice from Total Artist, I’m painting his PSG caps silver speckle…
PSG Pics in the morning…
Hi BC,
The Butterfly looks great!! I knew you’d put it to use. Nice work. I hope you can get a nice photo of the PSG…white caps can be kind of fickle in photos. Looking good so far.
T.A.
Pulled out my real camera today :P…

TotalArtist Review of BCMaddog Paint Service
I noticed that BC was starting a new paint service, and attempting to drum up business on the forum. He seemed very enthusiastic about this new venture, so I viewed some of the photos he posted, and they looked pretty good. He was honest, and posted that he was just starting out and honing in on his craft of painting, and still eduating himself on what works best.
So, I wondered if BC could spice up a green PSG with white caps. I hate green yo-yos, and this was one of the few I had around. Maybe with some silver speckle on the caps, it might be a keeper. So, I contacted BC, who got back in touch with me right away, and we struck a deal. He was honest, about the colors he had available, and he offered to get a color of my choice. I selected silver, one of the colors he had in stock, and appreciated his willingness to accommodate a color request.
BC does not accept Paypal, which may turn off some buyers, but I was sending the yo-yo with tracking anyway, so it was okay to put the cash in the box. It was only a small amount of cash, so not too risky. He charged $12, with return shipping included in the price. So, I mailed out immediately.
Communication was straight forward. I would describe BC as honest, almost to a fault. He seems just that honest. He even asked if he could throw the PSG when he got it, because he never tried one, but he assured me that he would be careful with it. Most people would throw it without asking, and I knew that, but BC wanted to know if it was okay. I liked that, and I think that is the part of BC that his customers will appreciate most. He has the ability to develop a raport with people. He gets back to you quickly…lightening fast. As you may know BC well from the forum, he has plenty of energy, and that will help him in business.
Timeline:
I mailed to him by First Class, on July 20th
He received the yo-yo on July 22nd
He notified me that he shipped out on July 23rd (First Class)
I received the yo-yo on July 25th.
As you can see, this entire transaction only took 5 days to complete, and we both used first class shipping. First class is the way to go. I received the yo-yo and a complimentary yellow string was included. I looked at the yo-yo and observed that the speckles were a nice size, mostly fine, and evenly placed. There was no coloring outside the lines onto the body of the yo-yo. It appears that BC did a thorough, and clean job speckling the PSG. The feel was very, very slight to the touch, and barely noticeable at all. The yo-yo looked really nice.
Spinning Shots;
In conclusion, overall BC did a great job. He is a great communicator, easy to negotiate with, honest, he works fast, and he return ships quickly. Most importantly, he did nice work, and the photos do not lie. I recommend you send a yo-yo to BC so that he can give your yo-yo a new look. Allow him to build some feedback, and one day, he will be painting your precious metals too. I also sent BC a free Butterfly to practice his painting skills on. If you would like to donate a yo-yo to him, so he can continue working on his skills, send him a PM, he’s a really friendly guy.
