I have more guardrails coming and I wanna have the option to create a proper entrance to the ring ,I also might have a wall graphics company making me wars MSG backdrop and behind the announcer area and timekeepers area I can add a pipers pit backdrop in front of the crowd but we will see and not to bad on price for 2 20x48 around $90 ... More to come crap this is more expensive then DKR hot toys . Im pretty proud I stuck my guns on prices I would pay and made many great deals but you cant get around Fink , Okerlund and Hogan you gotta get un while their hot Muraco too ? must be a good mod figure and Typhoon and Fuji too so Im waiting for deals or working off feebay  |

Thanks June I cant believe I resisted opening then all once as thats not like me and I have 3 refs coming which should add a lot to the ambience especially with The Dream Team as they will allways have two refs ringside and I have 7 mods I will be working on Herc , 2 Beefers , 1 Valentine , Luscious John and Fuji . ? do you think too many mats on the announcer side ? as Im set on the short side . |

Yes just use the mats to encircle the ring, the rest is fine being exposed, if anything it looks likes concrete

Yeah its looks like concrete so I will take the extra guardrails and make a path to the ring and I only did it that way too use more outside ring space .
I mean if I bump the announcer table and fink to the blue just encircling the ring what im I gonna do with all that space ? Thats prime real estate .

Hey June pm me if you know of any good WWF 80s dvd seller like a good quality SNME as the one I bought is below average at best .
Ok I did it for just around the ring and since my front and back are dead spots I only have two sides and I might also lose the ring steps as they are way to long and to close to the rails . I then split the two announcing teams and will get another big brown table for gene and fink and in the middle will be the rails on both sides for a entrance way to the ring . ? should I put a guard rails in front of the announcing tables I mean it looks good but not realistic . thanks for any ideas

Are you using someone to print it or doing it yourself? Using a company I found online and I didnt have to do anything but say what I wanted , great guy named Robert ,and not to bad on the price considering the quality and Ill have it forever ! The pipers pit stuff will be pricey as a CPU guy of theirs will have to format wars stuff from Jpeg so that will cost $50 one time and if Wars agrees to helps me and they will stick right over each other . |

There were a series a Target exclusive wrestler specific
ring sets that came with a ring, the wrestler and cardboard backdrops/accessories. There was a Piper's Pit set that had the pit backdrop. (I think it was the best of the set)
The others I remember were
Angle
Taker
Foley
And I think Roberts with the snake pit. I had/have all but the only one that was worth keeping was the pit set. I don't even remember what I did with the other rings and accessories. The Pit backdrop is used in my avatar pic

Guys I need Help FAST do you think gloss or matte finish ? I think gloss will give some depth and life but glare on photos and matte may be to bland , what do you guys think ?

For the crowd wall graphic GLOSS OR MATTE ? and also does it look to short height wise ? I mean I cropped out the beer/cig sign amd MSG tron and 20" high seems good as most of what was above it was far away black in the arena . I mean I wanna keep things in scale and not have a huge wall graphic over shadow the main objective bringing the ring to life

Gloss it is ! Just got in a custom referee 2 more beefcakes so I have 2 custom for action and 1 deluxe for championship pose and thanks PJ mods are going well knees and arms were easy but with the heads the pins came out with them today but no problem .
Also got my Buddy roberts that Im modding into Johnny V and the Tailor is making Johnny outfit and I have half a Hercules but i think I will dremel down the hair a tad and repaint it . Man I hate you guys for getting me hooked on these .
Oh and I think 20" is to short for the ring area crowd skyline as 26" was to much 20" isnt enough to capture the ambience plus I wanna hang banners and wow I got two WM banners in with my deluxe beefcake sweet but how do I hang them ?

Heres the snake pit which I will then attached it to a press board set for sturdiness not bad for $20 as the next closest was almost $60 first bid and I probably could've created something more realistic but I like it more campy kinda like the crowd background .

It's all coming together for you. I would like that Roberts set, but not for the 60 it's going for.
You have the right body n boots and accessories and base head for Herc, but you have to cut the hair off and give sculpting a try to make it 100% Hercules.
