What calves or knees would fit best in making HOC Ciampa taller? I would just get new legs entirely; Elite 36 Bo Dallas is relatively cheap.

Thanks for all the input guys! I have one more Dr. Death I'm going to attempt, stepping away from the Brock torso because - well he wasn't that hulking of a guy, just a big barrel chest. Stay tuned! Curious what torso you are going to use, looking forward to it. Have been thinking about the Tugboat head, I think it works overall. Maybe try repainting with a dark brown or black hair/beard to set it apart from Tug and make it more Dr. Death like.

I cant wait to see it, I toyed with using the old hillbilly jim body and legs, like my old custom goldberg, as it also comes in black and you get big legs and a sizeable torso with chest hair.

Any advice for taking apart/putting back together arms/legs? Seems harder and more time consuming than torso cracking.

YouTube has a bunch of great tutorials. Any in particular? I have seen quite a few and it's never as easy as any of the videos I have seen.

kidjoe dude that looks great! Awesome sculpting on the hair and beard for sure. I found one pair of mis-matched dr. death decals - two different sizes but if you're interested I'll send them over.

I posted this a few weeks back, but I wanted to change the face paint because with the Network Spotlight figure and a head and boot swap on the BatB figure I had three figures using the same face paint. Then Nivro™ gave me the idea to repaint the red and blue colored parts black so it would loosely look like the Clash of the Champions ‘91 Match vs Flair. The more I thought about it I decided a black and white Facepaint would work...so I repainted the face paint it’s not match accurate though. I’m not sure if I want to paint the boots black so it’s closer to that attire even though the face paint design isn’t match accurate. Anyway here it’s the updated look...

Seems like a good time to remind people not to quote a wall of pics just to say "Cool". You can tag the OP and save the rest of us a lot of scrolling.

Off topic here, but Bandalero, I would be interested in seeing some collection pics. You take some of the crispest photos!

If your whites going in thick then it needs more water
Put on a few nice watery coats. You shouldnt see any brush strokes
Take your time, itll be worth it super j
