You had to keep it simple? If you call that simple, my friend, I don't wanna see a complicated custom. Damn! I want those baddies in my Fed!

I assumed from your "WIP" pics that you were making a Brody, but your Nord the Barbarian is simply fantastic. Ox and Spot are just as stunning! I love the additive sculpting and the attention with the paintjobs (drybrushing, and whatnot) May I ask about the other figure parts in the picture (the torso with the singlet, and the masked heads - is a Masked Superstar custom in the works)?
Great job - those are some of the best customs I've seen in a while!

Updated The Assassin, Thanks...I like to be different Gore, you're right, Old School style. MaskedSuperstar, Yep, the other head is a Masked Superstar. He's such a bitch to make...13 stars to paint. Thank god for the airbrush!!! On top of that, this one will have a strange attire that I've never seen.

Jesus, dude! These are magnificent. I was just watching some old World Class Wrestling that featured the Super D's (against the Junkyard Dog & Iceman Parsons), so seeing these customs are also kind of creepy - but in a good way I can't wait to see more!

I'd love to see a good Iceman King Parsons or Chris Adams, maybe even a Gary Hart.

What about Bugsy McGraw? Or The Fabulous Ones (Steve Keirn & Stan Lane)? Ray "The Crippler" Stevens and Exotic Adrian Street would be two others I'd like to see.

I'd like to do some full blown customs (skin tones etc....) but that's not what the buyer wants. Besides that, figures like that never sell for what they're worth. Most collectors want figures that blend into their collections. Maybe I'll do a few Mattel's down the line, but I'm not impressed with them enough to invest the money in parts. Anyway, here's the next list. Mr. Wrestling 2 Austin Idol Dutch Mantell Jose Leduc Fabulous One Steve Keirn Fabulous One Stan Lane Bota The Witch Doctor The Assassin (Jody Hamilton) "Devil Worshiper" Kevin Sullivan "Woman" (Sullivan's valet)

Awesome job on Superstar, and great use of an Angle head. But out of curiousity - why did you choose an obscure Memphis gimmick like Bota the Witch Doctor for an upcoming custom? Any ideas on what head you'll use (a modified Haku, maybe?) If you're going to do more Memphis wrestling gimmicks, what about PG-13 or Ta-Gar Lord of the Volcano? Anyway, I can't wait to see more of your work! Please keep them coming.
