Here's my latest idea. Possible Magnum TA head? Obviously I gotta add the mustache but what do you guys think?  IMO it will look spot on |

Thanks Skunk. Actually had the head on another body for an indie wrestler and thought, "Hmm.....maybe". Didn't have a Jake Roberts head and have all the parts to whip up a Magnum, lol. Funny how stuff falls into your lap sometimes.
If anyone is looking for a Magnum TA, holla at me!

 Threw together a Mr. Hughes. Might be a little short but it's what I had. Need to do his fade, add suspenders & find some sunglasses. "Current" Super Dragon. Never seen a bigger version of PWG's favorite son. Magnum with part switches, sans mustache and chest hair. Turned out better than I thought. |

Patrick, you gotta get a photobucket account. I went through this thread and your own thread, looking at all your past work and some of the pic links didn't work, as the ebay auction was finished. It's super easy. You can even drag and drop nowadays. Here's my latest idea. Possible Magnum TA head? Obviously I gotta add the mustache but what do you guys think? Is it that easy I mean its so much extra work as I tried to use imgur and Im cluless so many stupid steps and I have almost a 1000 photos to share and the way I do them now they disappear in 3 months . Pm me on how to get started if you want ? Thanks I think HBK as Magnum is a tough sell as that headscuplt is very noticeable unless your gonna do a total redo |

 Worked some of Mr. Hughes. Sculpting his fade was a lot of fun, haha. Still gotta get the suspenders going and seal it all up. Anyone interested in this, let me know! Please excuse my messy ass desk, lol. It's stacked with parts, paints, toothpicks and everything else. I'll clean it up tomorrow, Mom. JEEZ! |

I never would've thought someone would make a Mr. Hughes figure. The figure is better then all of his wrestling work combined. Good job. |

LOLOLOL. The figure was pretty easy. Had to switch out the hands, paint the neck & put hair on the D-Von head. Did a wash over shirt with some white. Use a Tazz torso & some arms from a Strike Force figure. I'm all about making different guys.
My favorite Mr. Hughes story/match is Mikey Whipwreck's first ever match was against Hughes. Hughes walks up to him before the match and says "You gonna jump real hiiiiiiiiiiiiigh for me on the sidewalk slam?"
That story is from Cabana's AOW podcast. After seeing the match, Mikey did indeed, jump real hiiiiigh for him.

Nick Maniwa very nice work on the Mr Hughes. I was just watching super brawl 91 on the network and thinking to myself, that would make a nice figure. Anyway, you nailed it. Great job.
