I had an extra pair of All Stars Macho Man blue kneepads, so I took off the black kneepads on Kerry Von Erich and put the blue ones on, don't know how accurate it is, but it looks a tad better since the accent of Kerry's outfit is a blue too. It looks pretty good. What do you guys think of that idea?
And while I'm here, I give everyone in this thread doing fixups a round of ovation. Great work to basically everyone in here for posting their fixups and everyone inspiring others to "Fix Up" our figures in our collections. I wish I was tallented as some of you guys!

Jpickard, the Million $$$ Man works really nicely! I will have to borrow that recipe. I also like that scan of UT the best, so far.

Nivro - who's black boots are those on that thrown together fix-up? It looks perfect for a Barry Windham I'm thinking of.

Resembles Chris Benoit a bit. It does kinda resemble him. @ Apoc....Im actually going to use them for Sting...They're lower cut then Road Warrior Boots so I think they're perfect for him. I actually thought about making Sting out of this figure but the more I looked at it I realized that he's way too short!

Bandy, Also, Akeem boots could work, or dusty rhodes but carved thinner with an exacto blade.... it can be done
Nivro, you'll need a kicker shin mold to add height, you could always use one of the matt hardys and have a black tights or purple tights stinger

My problem is the closest thing I think is Jake Roberts and the reds are off and I, like you, am not a fan of painting.

Word, Well ya not sure theres any figures with the same color of red with taller shins, Benoit was short though, you could swap the boots and make a benoit then use those boots on black tights or purple tights matt hardy for your surfer sting

I however cant paint a scorpion or face paint...Deans decals dont work on Black and a good customizer costs more then Im willing to pay. I might go with an early 87 Sting where he just wore plain tights haha.

This may be a dumb question, but does Dean have a website for his decals or does he only sell them here?

I think they're only sold here. You just have to PM him and ask what he has/can make.

Apocalypse, the Repo Man turned out really nice! Yeah, painting that much detail is tough. I stopped trying.
Nivro, he looks like a new "up and comer" young kid trying to make it in wrestling. Not sure specifically who it could be, though.
