Looks good buddy. The sculpting all seems nice and Steiner is posed in a "give me your lunch money!" pose which I like hehe. The painting is good but the writing could maybe use a little work, either way it's nice. Maybe gloss it up a bit and it's good to go. Good to see you back!

I always liked this outfit, I think Steiner should have stuck with the white singlets. It looks cool, I like the double black stripes from when he first started dying his beard. The hair looks perfect too, nice job on the sculpting and color choice. I am a fan of the finer details, like wrinkles in the singlet and kneepads. The writing on the back looks like you gave it kind of an airbrushed look, which I think comes across pretty well, like it's faded in some areas. Nice job on this one, it's cool that you give them little platforms to stand on, it goes well with the posed style.

i really like all of your customs. i'm an ljn collector so perhaps thats why when i see your posed customs i'm always impressed. you capture poses so well, i realize how difficult that is. the ufc ones were "great" too, i look forward to more of those.

I probably spend more time trying to capture the pose than I do actually working on the figure. Sadly, my next few figures will not be posed.

That does look alot like you judging by the pics you posted of yourself, you captured your likeness well with a few simple mods (it's a Gymini head isn't it?). To me the figure doesn't look finished though, the sculpting on the hair looks near perfect but it looks like you haven't quite painted to the edges so there's some white showing on the hairline. You need to paint the lips too because the face looks a bit plain and unrealistic in one block colour. I also think you need some shading or highlighting on the skin tone, I don't think single block colour custom skin tones work because to me they look like an undercoat and either look too bright or too pale, in this case I think it's a bit bright pink. It does look suitable for a base coat though and with some subtle shading and highlights I think it could look awesome. It's you though so if you're happy with it then that's all that matters.
