Thanks to everyone for your feedback on the Steiner fixup. Here are some of my replies. I did consider using Jakks CS head sculpt but dropped the idea as i felt it was a bit too large in scale compared to other mattel figure heads. Posing them together might feel awkward imho. On the gloved hands, yes ... I might swap hillbilly's hands for this Steiner. Still considering. I shall keep the singlet as it is as i think the split colours concept matches what steiner used to wear too. I try to avoid repainting where possible. Just keep it clean & non-sticky. As for the recipe i used: Hair & Boots: Rockers marty jannetty (elite) Head: Chris Jericho (basic), eyes iris repainted to look bigger Body: Ryback (elite) Arms: Brock Lesnar (basic) Calves: Terry Funk (elite) I made the fixup from spare parts & figures that i do not need anymore. But if u were to consolidate the parts separately, it might be costly. Am now considering my next fixup project. Nope, not gonna build a Rick Steiner as I feel mattel might be able to clinch a contract deal with him like Jakks did. Next one will likely be The Patriot. ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif)

Glad you adjusted the hair color. Makes a big difference. Soooo anyone going to attempt a Fin Balor in last night attire? wasn't planning on showing it off until I finished it, but what the hell. ![](http://i61.tinypic.com/zumm9y.jpg) So you can work on this but when you have to work on others customs it takes 6 months? You're a real winner.

You're a real winner. -working on them doesn't take 6 months. -shipping them takes forever because I have limited time and I also cant drive. so its not like I can do it in 5 seconds. don't bring the drama here, please. jesus f***ing christ. and im not planning on doing any orders ever again after this fiasco. I cant handle the responsibility of shipping the damn things back.

Same thing with CMD. He's been "working" on a Joe I paid for a few months ago. Every time I ask how it's going, he tells me how busy he's been and didn't have time to make any real progress on it.
Honestly, I don't understand why people take orders, if they can't get the product out to the buyer at a reasonable time? Makes no sense. Haha

Hi everyone I thought I would post a few things I have been working on ![](http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx354/Outterside123/IMG_0834_zps6efca582.jpg) First up is Brother love. The recipe is pretty simple Torso and Legs: Elite Bray Wyatt Arms, Head, Jacket: Jakks classic Brother Love Hands: Elite Big Show Boots: Dusty Rhodes with the yellow pattern acetoned off The rest is sculpted fat I am reasonably happy with him, however his scale is all wrong as he is almost as tall as JBL when in reality he was a short guy. Im also not too happy how the shoulders came out but the paint looks ok on display

![](http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx354/Outterside123/IMG_0832_zpsf18e6698.jpg) Second up is the Great Muta Head: Jakks Funaki? Torso and arms: Elite Daniel Bryan Right Hand: Kerry von Erich Waist: Elite Terry Funk Thighs: Iron Shiek Knees and Lower Legs: Elite Rey (The flash one for paint rub) I tried a different paint scheme for his face to alot of others posted on here and really like how he came out

Final one is Raven ![](http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx354/Outterside123/IMG_0831_zps672549ca.jpg) Its nothing new as several people have done the exact same recipe Head: Toybiz Raven with some stubble dry brushed o Hair: Another Toybiz figure of Raven (props to dean for the idea) Torso and arms: Elite Rollins Hand: Basic Jeff Hardy Waist and legs: Elite Cena Boots: Rollins with the pegs drilled into the shins The jacket is from defining moments Bret Hart with the logo removed, which wrecked the jacket but at the same time suits ravens grungy look. My original idea was to have the molded jacket but I couldnt get it to work with the solid plastic hair, so under the jacket he has black shoulder, the punisher logo isnt strictly accurate either but I like it all the same. Thanks for looking
