Very nice. What head did you use on the 1998 Sting? DA2/DA6 Edge (Originally Skribbel's idea when he made me a 1997 Starcade Sting custom, so all credit to Skribbel for the head idea !)

Damm ! Forgot to sand/scuplt over the laces like i have done on every other Sting custom i've done, oh well
and to SAVE_US.CMC
Head: DA2/DA6 Edge Head Torso/Arms/Hand: DA9 Vince McMahon Legs: DA13 Cody Rhodes (standard DA Legs) (although DA2/DA6 Edge Would maybe work better as the boots have the short kickers instead of laces)
Spring Stampede 1994 (vs Rick Rude) & Beach Blast 1992 (vs Cactus Jack) Sting coming next (once the batteries for my camera are charged)

Fantastic job on the new Sting and Muta. The paintjobs on both are great. Sculpting looks very good, keep it up.

You did a superb job on Sting, the sculpting padding looks very good as do the Scorpion and Mechanix logos. Muta looks very good too, i love the trouser designs you gave him. Rated R NinJa

Just a Quick explanation I purchased this Sting fron Skribbel awhile back. Recently it fell of my shelf somehow and my dog chewed the hell out of it ! (Sorry Skribbel!! ) I managed to save the head and used it on my Sting Custom. So all credit to the head to skribbel ! (I just re-painted the face paint and hair a little, the hair scuplting was done by skribbel) So heres my Bound For Glory Sting. The Head is from Skribbel, The Coat from Ralphs, the belt from Nelly and the Bat from a McFarlanes, MLB Figure, everything else is my work Rate/Hate

Man, I feel for you. I have three dogs and have gone through my fair share of munched-up figs. Losing a skribbel custom is incredibly harsh, though, bar none they're some of the best going and some of the highest-priced. So I definitely empathize with you.
That said, good save. I've seen boatloads of BFG Stings, but this one gets it right. Good job.

Such an awesome Sting i swear. Kinda inspiring. I'd really like to give making my own a shot. Can you list out what parts you used for the crow Sting, also what type of paint and what you used to do the sculpting. And any other helpful details would be much appreciated. Tyvm and awesome work!

All of these look well done. The Crow Sting looks clean and smooth. The sculpting is a little weird looking on the pads, but at least you sculpted the pads. The only thing I would like to see on this one is the buckles on the boots. The GAB Sting is painted very well, it's unfortunate your camera is off on color, as in the pic the blue looks too light. The Scorpion is painted well, and despite the head choice the figure is still great. Again, would like to see the boot buckles. Muta looks perfect, can't complain about anything on him, paint job is clean and crisp, mask is sculpted well. Great job.
