I have tried to make some customs in the past, but they have not been good. Since I have been snowed in a lot, I thought I would take some extra figures that I had and try a custom Mattel of Sheamus with a painted WWE title belt. Sorry if it is not the best, but I think it is a good first try. Since I have some unexpected medical bills, I may even try to sell it on ebay with some loose Mattels I am posting this weekend. Thanks!

That's REALLY good for a first man, the designs are perfect, your only flaw is that Sheamus's hair should be darker and oranger.

Thanks for the input. I thought the same thing about the hair color. It looked too orange the first time and I changed it. It looks a little darker in person. The camera flash made it bright.

He doesn't have "superstar scale" because you used Jericho for him, haha, but I really love the job you did on the attire and the sculpting. My only problem is the hair color, and that may just be the pictures, but it looks really pink. It should be more auburn Also, he isn't pale enough .

I will try to fix the hair color today and post an update.
As far as the body color. I picked the figure with the lightest skin. I did not want to try and paint the entire body on my firs attempt.
Thanks!

The head doesn't work, the skintone doesn't work, the hair doesn't work, the body doesn't work, and the boots don't work, but the design painting is decent.

Very good for a first custom! The attire is amazingly detailed! You have added all the logos and done them very well! All I can say bad about it is that t6he hair is a bit too red and the head scan is a bit off. I can't blame you for the ehad scan though because mattel haven't released many yet. Overall good job!

Almost perfect only problem is hair colour it should be ginger and not red but maybe thats just the camera. Also he should be more pale. Keep it up.
