Retired Fix Up Thread

Ah my fav attitude era wrestler.. van venis!
Looks good!
The head doesn't look too big on that body.

Bossman looks good as well.. not a fan of the vest though.. yeah and maybe can try trim the hair n face a bit if u want to..

@benurich & n2jib, thanks guys! I wanted to use a different vest for Boss Man, but that was the only one I had that would fit the bigger torso for now. I am going to try and get another Elite or Basic Reigns from the store today for that. I just got my dremel in last night, so I will thin out the face and hair and get Boss Man looking on point. I appreciate the feedback as it helps me see things in others perspectives.

that Val Venis is perfect

@kse your Val Venis is amazing!

I'm not really any good at painting, but you can see that it looks more like him without the cartoony angry eyebrows.

What can I do with a Wade Barrett head, a screaming Ziggler head, and an extra Ziggler body?
Maybe I could turn Ziggs into Danny Doring, of course he didn't really have his mouth open all the time. I also don't have ziggler arms without wrist tape.

I think Dean used one for him

Here are some recent fix-ups I've been working on.  The theme of the day is ECW!

Sycho Sid Vicous elite (Jakks head on a Bruno body with leg modification and tall boots) He may be a bit thick but it makes up for the bobble-head effect this head would give on a more accurately sized body.  He fits in with my theme of ECW wrestlers since Sid made a few PPV appearances in '98-'99, although always in jeans and not in wrestling gear:



Jerry Lynn elite (Jakks Burchill head on Shawn Michaels Rockers body, boot swap, and paint) Slight bobble-head and skintone mismatch but I can deal with it just to have him in my collection.  I had a difficult time mixing a purple paint so the trim is a turquoise blue instead   Regardless, he looks great next to my new E27 RVD and now has a spot in the front of my ECW display:



New Jack basic (Ezekial jackson head on Seth Rollins body, Kofi arms, modified Mattel black t-shirt)  I may convert it to an elite if I can find a Seth Rollins elite at retail since I also wouldn't mind the extra ladder and table:



Test elite (Jakks head, Cena torso, Ryback legs, medium boots, painted trunks) Probably a bit too muscular but (1) I used what parts I had lying around (2) it helps reduce any bobble-head effect.  Sort of fits in with my ECW theme since he was a part of WWECW line-up  :



Thanks for looking.
