>>6320573>Is there a name for this phenomenon? I feel like this happens a lot, where the unpainted version looks a million times better than the painted one. See most figmasIt's called shit paint jobs.
That other guy isn't right or wrong, as it really depends on the situation.
When you see something black and white or unpainted, you're trying to fill in the details with how you think it would look like if colorized. So you may believe that the sculpt work looks more realistic than is suited for the flat shaded solid colored paint job it got.
And that paint job is pretty bad. Look at those huge spaces inbetween the teeth. The super bright yellows. The metallic blues. Completely flat colors everywhere, that does nothing to enhance the sculpt.
There's a lot of other reasons you may not like the paint job, but that doesn't mean every one would be bad.
