Ok, this custom is going to be for the really old school WWF fans. Jimmy Jack Funk wrestled in WWF in 1986 and 1987. He was billed as a brother of Terry Funk. (He's not). I included some reference pics and a video so you can see who he is if you don't know him.    Uploaded with ImageShack.us |

Spot on, very very nice custom, its pretty basic, nothing wrong with that at all. The figure body, size etc works very well, the head is exactly how it needs to be.
If i had to pick something , id possibly say the rope would be cool if you could soak it maybe, just so it stained a little darker, but thats just being picky.
I love the cow bell

I like it dude, its simple, but effective. A suggestion for the rope and cowbell, try soaking it in teabags for a while to give it that brown colour. Its pretty small child school projecty in method I know, but its worth a shot!

That looks great. Looks like the Volkoff head. Excellent use of it.

Really good.
He was billed as a Funk cousin, not brother.

Sadly I remember this guy. I think he was around briefly when I started watching wrestling as a kid. Very nice job on the figure. It's very simple, but looks like the guy and works well.

I love this custom. I wanted to do a Jimmy Jack Funk, but I did not know what head to use, and I did not want to use a Terry Funk head, but the head you used is spot on.

Badass, I've been planning on making one myself for a couple years, but never got around to it.
