Quoted from Rensh:

Nice work
Looks very similar to the one Geert Koop made a year ago

It's one of the highest compliments I think people pay to other artists when they contact me for a similar look. It's common for people to send pictures of Sparky's they love and ask me to paint them either exactly the same or with a few alterations. The "State Prison" Sparky is one of those instances. Geert Koop made a dang good look!

Quoted from MIL:

I have a quick question for all you Sparky modders .
I have a spare Sparky which I'm going to paint up myself . Some great ideas in this thread . My question is , does the body of the Sparky separate from the chair / legs ?
I can see that it is attached by a spring as is his head to attach to the body . Obviously taking it fully apart will make it easier to paint but wasn't sure how . I don't want to force it too much and break it .
Any tips and pics would be much appreciated .

It gives you a bit of a heart attack with the terrible unwinding noises but like Aurich said, his torso does come off and makes painting so much easier. If you're going to take him apart, be gentle with it so you don't end up warping the shape of the spring.

I normal unwind him a couple turns and paint the body while the spring is still connected to the chair only because the hassle of painting him while he's still connected isn't as bad as trying to get the torso back on to the chair.

Kudos to all the painters who can easily reassemble Sparky.
