The Goldberg is absolutely perfect. It definitely ranks in the top 5 of Goldbergs I've seen over the years. The chest hair looks completely real, and you did a great job on the logo and tat.
Vicera looks great with the head change. That scan captures him much much better than that BDV scan.
The head you used on the Rock IMO is the only good rock head ever made. The rest all kind of make him look intellectually- disabled or something. I like the modification and the samoan tat looks perfect.
The 2nd Rock looks like a great fix up. Keep these up.

Those are beautiful customs. I don't know if you did any painting on the heads other than the matt lacquer but for some reason they look more lifelike than I've ever seen wrestling figures' heads look before. All the other paintwork looks perfect and the sculpting does also, flawless all round.

People like you piss me off... Because I wish I could be that damn good at anything other than 'bating and buying  ing toys. I'm blown away by all figs shown... Goldberg is easily the greatest Goldberg DA EVER. BDV is absolutly breathtaking and miles ahead of Jakks release. The Rock's are both amazing. AMAZING work my friend. |

Thanks to you all for the very kind words!
For the chest hair it was sort of an add/deduct thing.
I used a very fine brush with a somewhat watered down consistency of brown paint. and I would simply layer and layer and after I had developed a large covered area, I would take a sewing needle and very lightly scratch some away to give it that look.
When Ido this stuff its just sort of intuitive, I just make stuff up on the spot until I get the look I want.
Another little secret I have for doing things like tattos is that I use a good ol' very fine tip sharpie marker. Then I go over it with paint. a marker is more refined and gives you a good solid edged base to paint over. Of course a permanent marker is well, permanent and if you mess up painting, you can always scratch it off and do it again. either way it takes a lot of light, a steady hand, a good eye and a lot of patience (and practice!) to get it to look right.
