These look awesome. I love the arena. Thanks and when I get the wall graphic crowd it should all come together , I just got in the snake pit playset in and I was gonna make a spot for it and move the announcers back and forth as needed but fortunately the ring part and set will fit perfectly in the ring , which is nice , pics coming soon and I also did a bald Fuji for Yoko and I swear thats my last big mode though I did buy a nice organizer for all my parts and tools so who knows maybe Im becoming like June ?  If you havent seen his work guys checkout the creation thread , The guy created Uncle Elmer and hes looks just like BUT will I ever try it ? In the words of Iron Mike Sharpe Canada greatest athlete ! no no no NO ! |

In the words of Iron Mike Sharpe Canada greatest athlete ! no no no NO !I'm flattered, but I am certainly not the best. I was inspired by The Warsman, and just like you, I swore I would never try many of the mods and customs that I ultimately did. |

Ok I Foam boarded The backdrop of the pit but got messed up from that adhesive glue but I wanna use plastic stones around the water as the cut out is lacking . I really had to work hard around Fuji s ears to get so definition on them and I tried to keep his head realistic with a few bumps and curves and I got the shine just from carefully using the buffing wheel .

Great job on Fuji!!! That is a mod I've been putting off.
The snake pit looks good, but it's on the small side. I would recommend printing out Warsmans.

Great job on Fuji!!! That is a mod I've been putting off. Thanks and you told me once that you also varnish for shine like with bundy so what type of varnish do you use ? If I didnt have the buffing wheel I dont know what I would do and I stone dremeled most of Fujis hair off and then carefully barely touching with the stone it adds a shine from the heat glad was never a drinker . So what ring are you working off of ? did you ever order the guard rails ? I really like them though a few say there a tad short and from what the Wrestling Store told me they use a Jakks 6" figure as there scale . |

I have 3 RSR's the WM 1, WM 2 , and the RAW MiTB which I converted to a Mid-South Wrestling ring. |

Just paint the white parts of the cardboard black with a marker, that's a trick that the godfather ( Warsman) taught me.

I already painted it black , what do you think I am a hack ? ha ha I actually tried to find black blacking but only found dark blue and I used a elmers adhesive rubber glue so that I can peel off if needed . I have six deluxe beefcakes head that I modded with my CS figures and have the colors to do a blk & wht zebra print so any tips , wht first and add blk stripes.

Yes, definitely white first then the black stripes. Are you going for the 2nd Hasbro look?

Ok heres a few shots of my Snake pit set before I painted the edges black and out of convenience I will just put the show in the ring and I also have have a few led lights I will use for the show and I'll take a few with no flash as it looks pretty cool .  |

I'm selling what I have left because I am super nit-picky about scale. I already opened Mean Gene and made a Mattel out of him because I couldn't take him being taller than everyone besides Andre.

Hi Bill it can be adjusted on most pieces by my ankle surgery or crouching as seen in the photos above but I know what you mean but other than some scale issue jakks faces and Classic superstar roster depth probably will never be equally again in our lifetime .

UPDATE: Ok the Crowd Graphic shipped today and I sent the printer these entrance graphics in jpeg form as he requested but hes says that it has WWF in it and he cant do copyrighted stuff  But he was gonna do the crowd with MSG , American express , marlboro and Bud in it ? I smell a rat as I only need it in 8x12 inch and it wont cost much  I found them both on Ringskirts site and I wonder if this would have been a better crowd graphic ?   |

Yeah I forgot the ebay transfer photo trick but its Ringskirts crowd and 90s neon entrance . UPDATE : So I tricked the printing guy saying it was WF not wwf but the jokes on me any how as Im not paying $40 for a 8x14 90s neon entrance shipped . It will basically be like a colorform stick on and probably poor depth so im gonna find my local fed ex kinkos hopefully 24 hours so I can go late when its quiet . So June how do I wanna order it( the Wars/Ringskirts backdrops ? Cardboard stock , gloss ? then Ill foam board it , thanks Oh did you every order SNME ?
I made another good score on feebay got the Volkoff's NIB flag and chain $38 , Brother love , muraco and Capt Lou $8 in box Sheik and slaughter new in box $12 and Typhoon for $10 no box but mint and the key was I told the guy he could remove them all from box and wrap well in bubble wrap so he gave me free shipping . I prefer new or certain prefered sellers because of late I have been getting some crap even just things for parts are trash even after cleaning them as the sellers are hiding the damage ? why waste my time but I held them accountable , I hate being like this but they should know better . Ps Ringskirts has great printouts and a lot more than Wars , its on the bottom of his front page under printouts |
