From the neck down, it's exquisite.
The head is atrocious though. Firstly, the head isn't round enough. Back of the head needs work. It's like a flat top then a slant down the back. I don't think it really looks like him too much.
Find a different head and it'd improve the figure tenfold. I may have a shrunken Dynamite Kid head if you're interested. It's pure white though and you might have to fill in a spot with clay on the back. Just let me know.

The head looks a little rough (looks like you used a wade barry for it ) the painting on the rest of the body is extremely smooth !

Yeah, that head is just all sorts of wrong. I love how you were at least thinking outside of the box with it, but the modding looks extremely uneven. While I'm kinda iffy on Barrett working for Davey, I wouldn't bail on the idea just yet. Before going another route with an entirely different head, I'd suggest kinda rounding this one out to see how it looks. You may be able to still pull it off, and at this point it's worth a shot.
Other than that, I really like the attire. The flag on the tights looks really jumbled, but that's probably more to do with the pic size. I like the torso choice as well, since it gives him a good scale in line with his "short but stocky" look in real life. I'd love to see better pics of the tats as well, since they look quite good.

I agree with the others. The painting is fantastic, but the head needs a lot of work. If you fix that it will be great.

Yeah, I'm not happy with the head on this one either. I was trying to find one that worked better for Davey, but this was what I had available. It is indeed a Wade Barrett. I think it looks pretty good from the front, but it'll be switched as soon as I find another head. I'm not really a fan of the Dynamite Kid head for him either, though. But I'll re-post this with another custom when I do update it.
Thanks for the responses!

I've never made a custom before, so I'm not really one to critique with any credibility...
...but I wanted to throw the idea of using Thiago Alves as a head for Davey. I've always had my eye on that for him and have wanted to see someone try it.
But yeah, painting looks great but the head stands out as something that needs work (like everyone has been saying).

The paint job on the trucks, boots and knee pads were brilliant. The tattoos were a really
nice touch up as well. The face needs a little bit of work but overall great custom hope to
see more Hellboy.

These customs all look great. i like the painting on all of them. Did you use a paint pen for the fine details like the tattoos?
