Well it's been a minute, but if one things is true in life... Never forget were ya came from! I've been playin' around in my spare time with a few sculpts on the side. Figured I'd show ya some works in progress. Still have a lot of smoothing and refining to do. Been stoppin' in for a while now, great work by all, and it's great to see how much WF has grown. Happy New Year!!!

That's awesome, but dont just post this once and leave. You should post more. This Joe looks great. Are you working for the sculpting company still? I saw some sculpts you did while searching your name on google of Orton, Benoit, etc and they were great.

Welcome back Baity. Good to see you around here again.
That sculpt is phenominal down to the very last detail. I can't wait to see more new works.

I saw some sculpts you did while searching your name on google of Orton, Benoit, etc and they were great. Still a long way to go on this guy as well, I need smooth the ab area totally down, it's way too define at this point. I usually rough them in tight for anatomy purposes then soften them up. It's nice to see that some of "the old gang" are still around! Thanks for the kind words. I'll be posting updates on both of these guys up to completion. Joe and AJ are both 1:6 scale statues. I may very well kit them out if the response is reasonable enough.

Man, I remember you. How could I not? Customizer turned artist. Holy crap it's been forever since you've been on these boards. I'm glad to see you're back...hopefully to stay?
Duuuuude Joe and AJ are awesome. Fantastic work! Please, post more!

Some other notes, Joe's body was sculpted old school style in good ol' Super Sculpey. His head, however, was done in a type of wax called Fuse. AJ is all Castilene, which has been my weapon of choice the last 5 years. True, these are not "customs", but where the heck else would I post em?

Wow, I never thought I would see Baity around these parts again. Nonetheless, the Joe looks amazing, which doesn't surprise me given your past work. Keep posting new things man, and any possibility of posting some older works?
Also, I'm making an exception to my "no protos on the main board" rule, seeing as how it's a customizing legend we have here, so, one time exception!

I can see why you've earned legendary status, Baity. I'm not even into pro wrestling anymore and I still consider those things beauties, real works of art. I can't wait to see what they'll look like once done.
And, as others have asked, post some of your older stuff! Please.
