Buck- The Hasbro blue card had lime green tights. I made that one before also. I posted it a few pages back. Austin- Warrior wore MANY fluorescent attires in the early 90's. Below are a few photos from my gallery. There's no specific attire I chose, other than early 90's neon colors that Warrior and Macho were known to wear.    |

I don't think Warrior ever wore the same attire twice other than his plain white trunks a few times, lol. I remember lots of promo pics with him in all sorts of attires that were never on tv or ppvs. You can pretty much be creative with him and make up attires based off compilations of his other attires and it works fine. Awesome job on the warrior, looks great. |

Wow, that Baista is AWESOME. I can't believe how realistic it looks! I was anti-Mattel until I actually took him out of the package to inspect him. In pictures, the figure looks real, I agree with you. |

Awesome Dustin Rhodes custom...haven´t seen many before. Great job on his vest and head-modding! Even if i´m still not a big Mattel fan i like this Batista. Especially his three-day beard matches his current look perfect! Any plans for adding his new tribals and lower arm tattoos? Since this is something i´ll try on a RA-Batista soon  |

As always your customs are amazing.
Dustin Rhodes is perfect, great paintjob and you've included every single detail on the figure.
Batista is nearly perfect, the only problem i see are the tattoos. With the new ones will look perfect, but anyway it's awesome.

Thank you for the comments, gentlemen. My primary objective in painting Batista was to see how my current products adhere to the plastic. I have to say, Mattel figures have more of a matte finish, which assists the paint in adhering better. The only problem is, they are significantly smaller than what I'm accustomed to.
