Airbrushed some boots white for.. Wish the DA head was better in scale, even this is freakishly large, but the headdress makes it a little less noticeable as long as he's posed behind other figures. Still have to do his scars and left arm tape. Next a Taz. Niko, looks good. Do you have the Toy Biz Sabu? That head should be in scale with Mattel's.

I used to, sold that off a long time ago, so long ago in fact that all I can remember about it is the yellow rubber pants. Can't even recall the head sculpt.

I usually never post customs or fix-ups, but right now is the perfect time to. A friend of mine, R.J. Wilson took some of my broken parts, and made it into Dean Ambrose! I'm still going to change the head (that damn butt-chin, why did I buy E25 Ambrose like that? I dont know) but otherwise, this figure is perfect for me. Thanks again R.J. Wilson Sorry for being such a pain in the ass <3 *pics might be large, not sure]

cornman25 that Bluetista fix up is amazing. What did you use? Another pair of kneepads? I can't figure out the logo on the right one.

So a couple of weeks ago I posted pictures of my Hulk Rules fix up. Well recently I got an extra Hogan to work with and an extra Elite 34 red HulkaMania shirt. So I decided to try this. I'm not 100% sure about the headband though. Here's both Hogan fixes together.

I used a small elbow pad for the knee pads, like the ones that come from a Triple H figure. Anyway, the right kneepad's also a mcdavid. used this pic for reference

Hey guys first time posting in a while, basically all I was wanting was if anyone one could give their opinion on my idea for a Current Samoa Joe recipe because I had a idea that a elite Rusev would make a good Samoa Joe base, I know it wouldn't be perfect but I can't crack torsos (or I'm just to afraid to try.) But Basically the recipe I had in mind was something like this; Head:Samoa Joe Toybiz/ ?? Body:Elite Rusev (tattoos and some chest hair removed) Arms: ??/Possibly Rusevs (not quite sure) Legs:Elite John Cena From Thigh Swivel Down Boots:Random Kickpads So what do you guys think also If you guys could tell me if you think the Toybiz Joe head would be good on the Rusev body that would be great. Thanks in advance guys.

Pedigree: goldust and Ahmed look great. I love the 96-97 era customs. You should track down the BCA Goldust wig. It works better for that era. I had to carve a little out of the inside of the BCA wig but after it fit great on my custom classic Goldust.

Mikey - awesome balor
Teddy, great Ahmed and gold dust
Just one recommendation to both, try mixing a little bit of grey into your white, I do this every time I paint eyes. The teeth on balors chest and gold dusts chest as well are a little bright, you never see a true white anywhere so in instances like make up, logos or eyes, I like to add just a drop of grey to turn the brightness down, it will still look white just not a bright white. I'm just nitpicking and maybe it's just the camera... Good work either way. Love seeing fix ups from both of you. Finally got my HTM in a trade teddy, can't wait to put it together

The camera makes the gold look a little brighter than it actually is, but the white could certainly benefit from a touch of grey. Thanks for the tip. Glad you got the HTM parts. Let me know about the guitar logos. I can whip some up whenever you need em.

Thanks ballgame. I would definitely appreciate that.
I might try a tag champions set of rockers as well. I think I'm out of my league though for that.
I'm also working on a surprise flashback fix up / custom that I think is gonna be spectacular, probably will be a while as I have two orders to get through first

ellisd - Nice Hogan fix-ups! I've done a red-shirt Hogan just like that too... I don't think he ever had that yellow headband with the red shirt though - I made him a white headband (or you could use the one that comes with the RSC American Made Hogan). Or maybe paint that yellow one red... I'm pretty sure he wore a red version with the red shirt.
