I wanted to try my hand at painting, so I decided to start with the head. This is a complete head repaint. Sorry for the quality of the pics, had to use my phone. Actually matches up pretty well with the body, not sure if it picks up, but the hair and beard are dry brushed. Hope you like it.  greenshot windows screen capture |

I thought about it, but I'm not too sure how the skin tones matches up and if the head is in scale or not. Thank you so much for the response nevertheless! I just got a Roode from ebay, it was literally just a Roode head on a Triple H boddy. The didn't match, so I repainted it with Kislev Flesh. Real simple. Do you know if the head was modified to be fitted on that HHH body? I have a Chris Sabin from that line and the hole for the head is too small to fit on a Mattel peg. |

 I started working on a Owen Hart custom for my collection, I haven't found the right shade of pink to add the finishing touches. I would like to match the factory paint as close as possible. I'm currently working on the boots so I will show those off once they are finished. Overall though, I really like how this turned out. EDIT: Reference Image.  eeeencledeebull!!! |

No, no, no, no. I meant the head - sorry. I'm certain I've seen a Storm custom with a Batista head somewhere. EDIT: Also, you calm down, or I'll tell Bill to pull Camo Edge from HOF 4!  Oh lol. Any idea what head this is? This is a custom for sale on the bay.  100/% sure it's a James storm head. It is either a casted head or that TNA Marvel head with a new hair piece and the heads repainted |

Yeah, you must Dremmel TNA heads otherwise they won't fit. I have Sabin too, it's difficult. http://instagram.com/p/BHQbCAVDoQ_ |

What's a good head for a Donovan Dijak? I think the JBL body with some boots would work but don't know about a head....possibly a Heidenreich head

 Here is another custom I've been working on, I should have the CAS 2 pack shield and hammer soon, I do plan to
repaint them to match the silver armor on the figure as well. So I will take a updated image once I get those in and repainted. |

Here's a quick '91 War Games Sting. It was a laced boots Sting so I only had an extra pair of Dolph's boots in white. Still have to clean up the two stars.  |

knlimper - It looks like a photo from one of his eBay listing. I bought a Surfer Sting off of him about three years ago. Top quality work. If its who I think it is, make sure you seal anything you get from him because he doesnt seal his painted heads and they'll rub off with ease. Plus he tends to glue heads onto necks. Not a big surprise though knowing his rep when he was here. |

Not a big surprise though knowing his rep when he was here. He uses a lot of casts and shrunken Jakks heads, so I can see how it would be difficult to essential create a ball joint. I'm not sure i'd go through the trouble myself if I was making a good amount of money on them irregardless of that change. |
