VOTE ON CANADA'S GREATEST CUSTOM...Do you think my "Canada's Greatest Athlete" Iron Mike Sharpe custom looks good enough now as is, or... ...ADD CHEST HAIR (like by buddy Shockwave suggests) ?   If you do vote chest hair, are you thinking:- small drawn lines (like Jakks's Studd) - smudgy Arn Anderson Jakks Chest Hair??? - finely chopped pubes strategically glued like George Steele with chest hair classic? Thanks for your thoughts!

Pubes. And maybe paint the trunks a bit higher, as he wore them above his belly button  |

Cool looking Sharpe custom (a Blassie head?). I agree with Cymru - you may want to paint the tights to come up a bit more. He wore them pretty high. Not sure about chest hair. "Real" chest hair on a figure most always look horrible, so please use caution if you decide to do it. Yes he was a hairy dude, but not like someone like Dutch Mantel who was one of the hairiest guys to ever step in the ring. It'd be easiest if you could just do a parts swap with, let's say a Tank Abbott torso. Either way, dude, I can't wait to see it.

I'm thinking just a little bit of chest hair, and a treasure trail. Mike sharpe wasn't as hairy as like a George Steele, or Dutch. Also, I sick at torso swaps. Probably will touch up this one and call it a day.
I sewed the armband! Lol

Finely drawn lines would look best, but honestly, as much as that would help it, the lack of that kind of a detail makes it look more like a factory-made Jakks CS figure.
Great custom so far, though.

Thanks guitar! I was thinking the same thing. I really didn't want to paint it more.
Sometimes less is more.
