>>10347516There is no 5poa blank figures. If you are just looking to practice painting you can buy a cheap figures that are not 5poa. McFarlane artist proof figures are cheap and are a great way to practice your painting. eBay has tons of old prequel SW figures you can get for cheap as well.
You need to learn paint skills(thin your paints!)
How to disassemble figures and sand their joints
Take parts from different figures to create a new figure.
I would start very basic. Get a figure and maybe just repaint the shirt a dark color. Swap out the head. Paint the feet. Add some accessories (backpack, belt, et,), paint the small details on the figure like the buttons and belt buckle. Give it a dark wash then go over it with the dry brush technique to bring out the details.
What type of paints do you have?
