I'm just looking for a few tips and suggestions.
So... I have a bit of customizing skill, with some modification ability, small-scale "green-stuff" use and I'm a decent painter. However, I've never done anything with Jakks or Mattel figures.
1. I'm considering putting bandages around DDP's waist... And I don't want to cut and put actual bandages on him, so I'm looking for suggestions for something more permanent/better looking.
2. I want to make a Jerry Lynn. I was wondering which was the best recipe for him so far. I'd rather use Mattel, but I had a passing thought that Terry Funk Jakks body would be decent. Ted Dibiase Jr's head might work cause of the similar(ish) mouth and eyes and ted was so generic looking anyhow. Like I said I'd rather use Mattel because thats's what most of my lineup is, and I do care about scale... and Jerry was a smaller dude (but fairly buff), and e27 RVD will need to be just a bit taller.
So what are the best epoxies for remolding (wraps and hair)? Which paints would you suggest? I mostly use citadel, but open to different options.
Thanks in advance for taking a look and for any help you might provide.
