You can't really mess it up tbh  I need the arms switched from the shoulder, which means the chest needs to be cracked and than sealed. Nothing i think i can do haha. Ah, thought it was just arms  |

It's looking good so far. I'm interested to see how it comes out b/c I wasn't a fan of using tyson kidd as a head choice but I think it can work if you go for the short hair Owen (like from 1997 IYH PPV same as where DM5 Bret is based off of) Keep it up I'm very curious to see what you come up with... |

I found this pic on Google and i'm assuming it came from somebody here, where did these chains come from? So much better than the rubber Mattel chains.

Wanted to make Cody look like his attire from when he won the IC title, so I added the Battle Packs Head and arm to the 2P11 one. Also added EG DiBiase lower legs to Angle to make him the right height.  I should have pics of all my Basic fixups on here by next week. |

whydraft2 that looks great. fits in nicely with your austin my next in line is scott hall. went with a slightly different route. I noticed that the wade barrett figure used a unique body that I felt would fit scott hall nicely; good height and mass which meant it would be taller and more defined than the austin and funk bodies, but not as beefy as the hillbilly jim one. again, i'm not sure if there is a sadist within me but there was probably more effort put into choosing the parts for this figure than necessary. so, recipe: wade barret torso and thighs demolition ax hip joints hacksaw shins and boots hacksaw arms r3 head the annoying thing about the wade barret figure is that the hip joints are meant for tight-wearing guys and there are creases and folds to simulate cloth, even though its supposed to be skin. so I had to go through that extra step in replacing the hip joints. resculpted the hair just to even out the head. apart from that i think it's mostly the paint job left  |

chinese chicken - huge fan of sculpted detailing. I think the simple stuff like tweaking the wrist tape adds SO MUCH to the figures. If only Mattel did this from the start. I'm pretty sure I've seen your username on other toy forums (you did some playmobil customs right?). Your work is outstanding! Can't wait to see what you do with Hall.
whydraft2 - Rock with the updated goatee is awesome!

noir: i feel the same way. I personally prefer sculpted over painted details and it adds more dimension to the figures. and yes i did the playmobil customs, glad you like'em!
aussiedcfan: cheers, hopefully he'll be done soon.
also, a quick question, does anyone know of any elite figures that have upper thighs with matching skin tones as superfly jimmy snuka? any help would be appreciated
