Not a huge fan of Tara to be honest.
I LOVE the Cornette though.

You captured Jim perfectly. The Tara looks good too.

The Tara looks ok, i don't think the kneebrack works though. I don't like the Corney at all though, i just think it looks nothing like him - still looks like Bruce Prichards to me.

I've added several smiling ref pics for the idea i was going for. I'm not sure why you bother to look though, you never seem to like anything i do. |

im guessing tara's just victorias name in TNA, looks pretty decent.
Corny looks really good though, I say you change the body to the Monsoon CS10 one and it would be perfect because cornette was fat. That or the paul bearer/heenan CS 3 pack shirt.

why do you always defend your work? If someone doesn't like it, who cares. If you like it that is all that matters. Cornette looks nothing like him. Include 100 more reference pictures of him and his huge forehead and it will do you no good. I usually don't like your skintones very much but I really do like the skintone you used for Jim. As far as Cornette's head...the eyes really do kill it. He looks high off of his ass...completely sedated and unaware of his surroundings..whereas Cornette in real life always had a look like he just took some uppers and is about one rant away from a heart-attack. The smile works. You managed to give him his trademark forehead but his hairline is still pretty off. Everything else is pretty decent. Tara looks good. I like the attire. The kneebrace doesn't work at all. It would look about 100 times better if you sculpted it. Because Tara's is always super tight whereas the one you provided for your custom looks like it is one jiggle from falling completely off of her leg. Plus the actual kneebrace is pretty different from that one..  Also doesn't she always wear at least ONE kneepad? I could be wrong..but I am pretty sure she does. Also I am not a "diva" custom maker/collector so I have no idea who the head scans are but that looks nothing like Victoria(it might be a Victoria head scan and Jakks just completely messed it up) but it just looks nothing like her...it looks more like Lady Gaga. |

Everyone defends their own work, i've seen you do it in the competition threads so lets not throw stones in our glass house. It may be your opinion that it looks nothing like him, it does look like him, but in your eyes it doesn't and that's fine. I can see it, the majority of the others who commented can also see it, but you and some others cannot. I couldn't see how Chris Masters resembled Raven, but you could so it worked for you. But i digress, ultimately it makes no difference as you say, i like it and that's what matters. As for Tara, i had no women's knee pads, but she does wear one, you work with what you have, you know that well yourself. Same goes for the knee brace, there is no women's style knee brace so i used an R3 which is the smallest one. If i weren't going for simplistic playability on this one, i likely would've sculpted it, but as you know i don't keep my customs and most diva customers i've had prefer full playablity. As for the scan, it is indeed a Jakks Victoria scan, it isn't my favorite, but i do like the hair sculpt on it quite a bit. |

I've added several smiling ref pics for the idea i was going for. I'm not sure why you bother to look though, you never seem to like anything i do. I've actually liked several things you've done over the years, have even enquired to getting some of them (Horice Hogan comes to mind). I'm just not a fan of full skintones unless neccessary, and the Corny one is neccessary so i won't give you flak for that. I'm very familiar with the look you were going for, I just don't see it. |

I am liking the Jim COrnette a lot. The head does seem to do the trick despite what some are saying. As far as the Tara goes, It does look nice but I personally do not like that Head scan for her but it does look good.

I like the Tara a lot. Yeah the knee brace is not accurate, but it doesn't take away from the customizing work on her head and outfit. The Cornette is a good effort. His hair is parted on the wrong side according to the ref pics. To me he looks more like Mike Hogewood from ROH.   |

exactly...you tell me all the time not to defend my work in the competition threads..But yet you do it yourself...Pot. Kettle. Black.
I knew my Raven head didn't look like him. It was all I had.I worked with what I had. You on the other hand are known for having tons of parts and you seem to sound completely satisfied with how it came out. I was pointing out what I saw wrong with it. If you fixed the eyes. the glasses, and the hair line it would work..but you won't fix it so whatever...you're happy with it..that is all that matters.

If you fixed the eyes. the glasses, and the hair line it would work..but you won't fix it so whatever...you're happy with it..that is all that matters. i do have tons of parts, and i used the ones that worked the best in my mind. the difference between you and me on the defending issue is that i'm not doing it in a competition against judges decisions. by all means defend your work, if you don't few others will, but it seems like the thread for the competition was not the appropriate forum for said defense. Anyway, as i've said before, although we don't agree on many things, i really do appreciate the thought and effort you put into your comments. i'd rather you hate something with a well thought out response then saying "10/10"...I seem to recall trying to spread my wealth of parts with you before sir. lol |
