Hey guys, here is a shot of my first few customs. They are all pretty simple, but I think they came out okay. They are Boris Zhukov, Haystacks Calhoun, the Patriot, Mad Dog Buzz Sawyer, Billy Jack Haynes, Ludvig Borga and the Assassin.

Thanks for the positive feedback. I try to keep the painting down to a minimum. I'm not a big fan of the sculpty or heavy paint. I used a dremmel to give festus a hair cut and turn him into Buzz Sawyer. That required some paint. I also colored Finley's hair to resemble Borga a little more. Boris's beard was added to with paint. I figure the less noticable it is, the better. Like I said, I like to keep painto to a minimum, but a little trick i use is painting over gaps in the teeth and such, like with Finley or Akeen/One Man Gang. I also painted Festus' tongue white so my Buzz Sawyer wouldn't have that dumb country bumpkin look.

Nice batch, I really like the Gymini head for Boris, since Boris did have the largest head in pro wrestling. lol
