Retired Fix Up Thread

Actually I did think about transplanting the back piece of the RA head to the Mattel head. If it looks good I'll definitely go that route. As far as what I've sculpted thus far, I'm pleased. Now I just have to figure out the best method for hardening the sculpey.



These are all looking very nice. I wish I would've been able to get my hands on the Basic Hurricane figure.

great beginnings to those basic-elite fix ups coon. great body choices

I really like the Eddie Guerrero as an USO basis. It's probably the best option available. Great job

Looking good bud! The way that scan looks you should def make that heel doink tho.

Orndorff I believe has the same torso as Von Erich. I would have n problem with those, but Masters tone does not match them.

Thanks for clearing that up PJ.

Am I correct in saying that Warrior, Kerry and Orndorff have different tones than Triple H? There's seem to be a bit more pinkish than Triple H.

I am thinking that the E4 Warrior and the E6 Warrior have different skin tones. The one in your sig seems to be closer to Triple H rather than Orndorff. When I checked my E6 one, he was the same tone as Tornado.

NWO Hogan:
Elite Kane w/ the R3 or CS head and accessories

RVD:
Mr. Perfect with lower legs from any of the elites w/ kickpads (Miz, CM Punk, Jericho for example) and R3 head

Goldberg:
The newer (E14 and onwards) Cena torso with Triple H crotch and upper legs and Austin lower legs

Old Ric Flair:
Legends 2 packs Volkoff (red tights) or Legends Jim Duggan (blue tights) w/ the last RA Flair head (it's a bit too big but the likeness is superb)

Dudleys:
R3 Heads, Bushwackers w/ custom t-shirts for both. If you want bulkier torsos, the aforementioned Volkoff or Duggan for Bubba and King Booker for Devon will work great. With the T-shirts on the overlap around the waist won't be noticeable at all.

And yes, I do think you can use the Jakks boots (the entire lower leg piece) on some of the larger mattels, although it may not be 100% flush with the joint.
Hope that helps!

Hey Guys,

I accidentally deleted the original fix ups thread. I deeply apologize. I have contacted Proboards to see if they can restore it. In the meantime please use this one and if/when it gets restored I'll merge these with that.

Thanks

UPDATE:

I have to pay Proboards $20 to get them to restore the post. I put in the request today. There is still no guarantee they can do it, keep your fingers crossed!
Thanks
JS

UPDATE 2:

Ok I paid them and they said it can take up to 10 business days after they confirm the payment. Please be patient.
Thanks
JS

Update from Proboards 9/9/13:
Unfortunately I have to apologize once again for delays. To update you briefly, some server issues are currently preventing us from performing content restores. We're working to get this system operational as fast as we can, but this will mean that this ticket is postponed until we can do so. I've been given a rough estimation that everything should be good to go by the end of the week.
