Hey G2 When I make a custom, I always try to use as little paint as possible. I'm not quite sure what recipe you're doing for this Piper, as I'm unfamiliar with that era, but if it's just yellow trunks on a crusierweight body, I would use CS10 Sabu as a base. He has golden trunks, and painting yellow over a gold base like that would probably not be too hard. I can't think of any RA's with short yellow tights off the top of my head besides Hogan, but I'm sure there are some out there. I agree with using as little paint as possible. Pipers trunks were a yellow and green plaid looking. I was also painting a yellow stripe down Scott Steiners singlet. Neither are working as I planned. The Base I was using for Piper was an AD green trunks Cody Rhodes figure. Im probably just gonna keep it green and say screw it. then you may want to try taking off the paint you've applied and starting over with thin coats of white then the desired yellow green plaid over it. i was under the impression you were making him in one of those canary yellow 70's suits lol. still look forward to seeing that era Piper in your fed. |

as of late, a few pic fedders have expressed their concern with the lack of replies. many pic fedders are making the effort to produce good quality shows, and they deserve replies.
while there is no way to ensure that those who are viewing are replying, we can try our best to instill the following virtue: "you watch. you reply."
i've had some fedders suggest a reply system that people can default to if they are feeling a bit lazy. list 3 pros, and 3 cons.
Example:
Pros
1. the lighting was perfect, and the pics were very clear. that really added to your overall presentation.
2. the stage was flawless. you did a great job at utilizing the money in the bank playset to create a unique set. great job! =)
3. the poses were great. each move was spot on, and executed to near perfection.
Cons
1. the storylines were not developed to my liking. adding some tension between your wrestlers will leave your viewers wanting more for the next show.
2. the commentary was a bit off. the grammar was incorrect, and at times, it was quite generic.
3. the ending was very predictable. it was obvious that the match was going to end in a run-in. do something unexpected to keep your viewer interested.
overall, you did an awesome job, and i cant wait until your next show.
leaving a simple reply like this will encourage pic fedders to make more shows to entertain us, and it will also ensure that your show will get more replies.
thanks guys =)

You fed because YOU want to. Simple as that. Many people on here run "gimmick" feds and thats not always everyones cup of tea. I do classic stuff and I know there are plenty of people here that dont like watching Bruno Sammartino vs Harley Race in just a regular match. I dont expect them to reply.....At the same time a Sabu vs Sick Nick exploding ring, lightubes, sky scraper fall to your death and burn in hell lumber jack match, isnt really something I wanna watch either (although I just made it sound really freaking awesome). I tend to lean more towards classic and "standard" pic feds myself. We're breaking off into small kliqs and I think that helps. People like myself, Mo, Wars all supporting each other with Classic feds. Yourself, DJ, WWEF, Colt having a more "standard" wrestling fed. Mox and brm guys like that are getting a more indy/hardcore feel to their work. Some of us cross over into other areas, I know DJ replies to every show Ive done and after he reminds me about 30 times I reply to his shows. I just think we gotta understand that just like real life, not everybody is gonna enjoy what shows we put on and we cant let that stop us from fedding....... Now, back to my Midnight Rockers customs (which are almost finished) oh and P.S. I know about what kinda shows people run because I actually do watch 90% of them, Im just usually tired of looking at the computer by the time I need to reply  |
