Very simple fixup. I used E19 Brock Lesnar's knee pads on Punk which are much more accurate than the original ones on the figure and also the smaller knee pads too since more of the back of the knee is covered. Mobility is greatly improved too, only thing is that they're a wee bit loose but thats no big deal.   |

I too started on Vampiro using the Toybiz head. It's such a great likeness. Too bad they used string for hair. I opted for the Kofi hair as well but I sculpted the hair. I probably started this close to a year ago. Since I took the photo, I've added one of his chest tattoos. Hopefully I'll finish it sometime this decade.  |

Did a quick Jeff Hardy Mattel Elite Fix-Up while I was taking a break from doing some homework:  Can we get a front view shot? Want to see how big the head turned out... Great idea. |

I'll post a front shot for you my friend! It didn't turn out too big for the body, considering its a TNA Jakks head. I did a Classic Sting one a few weeks ago and that head for it was way too big for the Mattel scale lol Nice, cant wait to see it! |

They look bigger here than they do on the biz. I didn't even notice till I saw the hands lol. Well I think the head is a tad too big, although it looks as good as it can look. Whats important is that you like him. I also think Jeff is a little bigger nowadays than the CM punk torso, so maybe use a slightly bigger torso on him? Like the macho size torso? idk, they shoulda found a way to release his E1 torso on someone else.

Smurf, I think I already asked but can I get the Ambrose recipe if you don't mind? Thanks. If you PMed me about it, I thought I responded but maybe it didn't go through. It's just an elite 13 Cody Rhodes with Ambrose' head and arms. |

This is the Benoit I've been working on. My first custom/fixup. It's based on his title match with the Rock at Fully Loaded 2000. It's a Jakks RA head, B29 Eddie everything else. I painted the tights and boots, and used Dean's decals. I need to clean up the hands a little bit more and find a darker fleshtone for the white pegs in the wrists. Eddie had white wrist tape. I don't think the skin tones from head to body look that bad. This had has some darker, 5 o'clock shadow-like shades to it. Any feedback or likes and dislikes are welcome and appreciated.   |

Benoit looks great except for the white pins and wrist stem.  And I had uped the basic Eddie as well. I think I used the WMH figure from the set with Warrior in it as well. I just thought that body looked perfect for Benoit. |

I could try and mix it to make it darker. |

Come to think of it I had swapped out the upper body with a Cena figure (survivor series heritage I think) it didn't have any arm band...and it matched the Finishing Moves Benoit head. |
