Hi All,
Here is one of my latest, Bill Goldberg! We've seen a lot of really great Bill Goldbergs on these boards but I noticed a lot of people omit the Chest hair so Thats what I really wanted to focus on to make mine a bit more unique/ Goldberg-like.
I used Carlito, which is the best Choice for Goldberg both in terms of his WWE build, shorter boots and skin tone color.
The head is from one of the old RA Goldbergs (they're pretty much all the same right?)
I usually use custom deigned decals but since this was a pretty simple design with no thin lines or typography I wanted to paint it on by hand this time around. Both the shoulder tat and the trunks logo.
I chose to omit the ugly skull on the inside of his Bicep because I hate that tattoo.
BIG DADDY V
I HAD to replace that God awful, horrible horrible scan the figure came with. Especially since in my opinion the Mabel/Vis scan is one of the best liknesses of all times.
For Big Daddy V I simply swapped with a Viscera/Mabel head and sanded down the mohawk, and then sculpted on his hair with sculpy and painted him a beard.
His fingers are simply crazy glued together, This could be more of a fixup depending on which way you look at it but it was a fair amount of work.
As always both are sealed with Testors Dull Coat to get rid of the cheap shiny plastic look
Hi guys,
Here is one I did a month or so back but was waiting for my custom vest, from the man Go DK (http://stores.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/GO-DKs-stuff) to arrive. His stuff is always top notch.
I always loved this look/era of the rock and wanted a figure desperately. Finally a worthy Rock scan was released with CS 18/19/20 and it inspired to make it happen!
So I took that head, sanded down the hair and sideburns and affixed it to a John Morrison body and painted on his Samoan tattoo. I custom sculpted his cow skull big belt buckle, and added a Honkey Tonk man guitar and the black vest from Go DK. Overall it may be my favorite custom because, like Owen, I never thought I'd get to add a DA figure of Rock in this outfit to my collection due to it not being relevant to the here and the now.
I also swapped the awesome CS20 scan with my CSDA Rock! Much better!
Thanks for taking a look ad I hope they might inspire some ideas for you all!
