(I'm on my iPhone, so one pic at a time)
I have been working on this for a while now. So today is a happy day for me. This started off as a Legends Orndoff. I painted the trunks and boots. They are actually a pair of AllStar Savage boots. I gave the AllStar Savage the blue/white boots from Orndoff. Shirt is from Ralph and the Hogan head is from the JAKKS Mega Maniacs 3 pack. I chose this head because of skin tone and the removable bandana. It also came with a red hulkamania shirt. Unfortunately he's a bit cross-eyed because the fig depicts Wrestlemania 9.
I love it. Very proud of myself. It will hold me over till we get one from Mattel.

It looks good but the head skintone and body are just slightly off. Other then that and Hogan has never been that ripped...It looks great. Maybe add some white for the boot laces.

I used acetone on the bottom of the boots to get the white back, but the acetone took the most of the white off as well. So now I don't want to mess with the laces. I taped up the laces and the bottom of the boots but it didn't work too well. I would love to re do the boots. Start fresh.
The skin tone is pretty perfect in person. I'm taking pics with my iPhone. I'm using the flash because with out it, the pics are too dull.

The skin problem may just be the flash. Worse case scenario, you can always use macho's boots for Hogan, thats IF you get picky about the white laces.

Great job! I think it's brilliant and I love that you used a headscan that has a removable bandana rather than one that's molded.

I used Macho boots. The yellow is no good for hogan. It has to match the trunks. The macho yellow is way too light.
Gotta go removable bandana. I want the option

It looks good. The skintones look the same, it's just the finish. You should hit the head up with some dullcoat.

Great Hogan custom. I think that's the first time I've seen that version of the headscan being used, as opposed to the R3, and it looks pretty good. The Undertaker is coming out good as well. I've always preferred the purple gloves/socks over the grey.

Pretty nice! I just finished up a Hogan myself, but I went about it a bit differently . . . . I used Texas Tornado's body, Macho boots (in this case, the yellow shades match up!) and an R3 Hulk Rules head. I do like the removable bandanna deal with yours!

The irresistible force meets the immovable object. I don't think that refers to what you think it refers to.
