Very small fixup but sometimes smallest ones make the figures 10 times better. Just tucked a medium size red kneepad into the smaller black one to recreate Batista's look at the Royal Rumble 2014. I'd swap the small right one with a black medium one and change boots with a pair of E6 ones. Also, i made the image ready to print for a decal of the Gracie logo on the trunks. Thoughts? I double up knee-pads often and I think it helps drastically.

A closure to my fix-up Jeff Jarrett ... just changed the hair colour tone to a lighter shade of yellow, and also added a pair of glasses (not the best I know). Anyway here it is.

Glad you adjusted the hair color. Makes a big difference.
Soooo anyone going to attempt a Fin Balor in last night attire?

My latest fix-up project ... Scott Steiner (1990s version). Since Mattel will take some time (if ever) to sign Scott for a figure contract, I decide to make one as a temporary stand-in. Real Scott vs "Fix-up" Scott: Entrance Attire ... the University of Michigan sweater (without the "M"): The FRANKENSTEINER!!! Steiner Recliner ... Setting up for one of the most deadly moves in pro-wrestling ... The SSD ... Steiner Screwdriver!!! Here are the fix-ups I did over the course of the past few months. Its been fun albeit time-consuming.

This is how MTD should have done Ricky Steamboat: My extra JYD arrived today so I used his thighs, basic 44(45?) Steamboat head, knees + boots, KVE trunks, and DM Steamboat body. Only missing double-jointed knees but otherwise I don't think I'm wanting for another Steamboat unless it's his all-green Chi Town Rumble gear. Looks great. Who's crotch piece did you use? Nevermind I just read KVE

Switch out the hands on Scott and remove the Ryback lettering and it will be a pretty cool custom. You should make Rick to go along with him, I think the CS head scuplt would work on that torso.

Holy crap! He looks amazing! I'm starting to work on mine tomorrow. Any pointers? What do you use for the extra small details? I run into trouble when I water down my paint a bit and it runs when I try to create such small details. My plan is to go at it with some toothpicks.
