Disco: Our old friend Disco, i've seen a few Disco's made with this head, i think it works well, so i decided to make one myself. I love the way the hair came out, its my favorite part of the custom.     Alex shelley: Just an order, that took me a long time to finish, mainly because i had such a hard time finding good ref pics, so in the end i just sort of amalgamated stuff from different gear together.    PN News: The rapping fat guy! this is one i've wanted to do for awhile but oddly enough there aren't alot of pics of this guy floating around for good refs. There are some things i did that are not accurate, namely the wrist and hand tape, it was a parts issue mainly, and even though its not accurate, i like how it turned out. Ref:       DX style Rick Rude: this is one i debated for a while, the head took a lot of modding, i had to reshape the skull and splice on ears, i'm relatively pleased with it.   Classic Scott Steiner: This is another pretty heavily modded head, Gate inspired me with his recent searches for the perfect scan, i've never been too happy with the heads i've seen used for old school Steiners so i worked up this one.    and in case you hadn't seen it, my half Dragon warrior for the Halloween contest.     |

I really like the Half-Dragon Warrior! Both Rude and Steiner look clean as far as painting goes, but the Snitsky scan for Steiner just doesn't mesh well. Scott's eyes need to be darker, but the hair looks great. All 3 figures are very well done and your work seems to get better and better with each custom..

The only bad thing I can say about them is that they are Pink.

Yeah check your monitor. Those skintones are near perfect. Top notch stuff. I was thinking about making a DX Rude. I think the tie might be little too short though. Scott's hair was a little bit darker I believe and I would maybe sand the chin down a bit. |

This chin seems right in person, but i can see the flaw in the pictures. |

Sadly I'm sure most people on the board don't even know who PN News is. What I'm more surprised about is that we haven't seen Gate make him yet, haha. Great stuff, glad to see this one made as I had wondered when somebody would do it.

PN News looks good. The eighties was a weird time for wrestling. The head is a little thin for the body, but the hat and glasses help to cover that up.

Dude, I have been thinking of doing a PN News custom this week! Great head and body choice. The painting looks good and the accessories are spot on. Excellent!

holy sh*t PN News...that is a godly custom. Seriously brilliant work.
I was just thinking the other day that I've never seen anyone on here make a custom of him. I was trying to picture one in my head, if I was any good at painting Id've probably used the super fat (yokozuna) body for the guy because he was beyond huge...but even still, the paintjob you did is superb and the scan looks great

yo baby yo baby yo!
ahah i honestly never watched old school WCW so i had clue who PN News was until my good buddy Chip sent me a link to a match of his a few months back. i am now a fan lol. that guy was over and i honestly never though anyone would make a figure of his lol. you make the most unique customs of guys no one ever even remembers but that's a good thing!
i think the head choice is perfect for PN. the attire looks really neat but i only have one small complaint, the hair! didnt he have like a little rat tail or a mullet? other than that it's great!
the Rude looks pretty neat too. i would have picked another suite color though, like a brown or something. other than that i the head modding looks great!
the Steiner looks pretty cool too. i really like dig the mullet. flows really nice. the Snitsky head seems to work a bit. i can see some resemblance. i just think like others have stated is that the chin looks a bit too long. Other than that it looks great man.
great job on this batch overall. cant wait for the next one!
