Back with a new custom of Kofi Kingston! I didn't realize until after I started that he actually wears speedo tights as opposed to biker shorts, but it was a bit late to make the change. I think it still turned out well though.  More pictures on my website:elgustahdore.wordpress.com/Also my Blue Blazer has been packaged and is on ebay along with Kofi.

hold up.
The painting looks great on both. i love the blazer. from what you can see he looks good,smooth painting, but personally i hate the angle head on him.
Kofi's face looks real good. nice modding. smooth painting, but again the shorts just kill it for me.You couldn't of known to much about him, to make an error like that.

I started this figure 2 weeks after he debuted.. After I pieced the figure together and put the primer coat on him and when I went to the reference pics to paint him and it was too late. It was just made of extra parts. I've got some "real" stuff coming pretty soon. Thanks for the feedback. |

I have no idea who Kofi Kingston is. I haven't watched any new wrestling in years, you could have put him in a tutu and I wouldn't know the difference. All I know is that it is painted great. I looked a picture up and his face looks like your figure. I understand the shorts are wrong but everything else is top notch.
Blazer looks great as well. Not much to say about it really. Looks good. I like the packaging. I wish I had those type of computer skills! Gosh! At least I have my bowstaff skills!

They both look good. In fact blazer looks fantastic.
The head choice I think is perfect for Blazer. I am curently making a blue blazer custom and used the angle head as well. The mouth expression is perfect as you can tell in many of blue blazers photos.
Nice work man.

Great work man! I'm actually working on a Kofi now and almost--almost!--made the same mistake of using the longer shorts. LOL. Nice job, keep it up!

Despite the fact the attire is wrong it is amazing..... The skintone looks great it is very smooth and it looks like you primed it really well..... I love the parts choice for the torso and boots. The head is perfect and was modded nicely. Keep up the good work you should compete in the Competitions board....
