Hey guys! Quick intro - I'm a huge Attitude Era, Monday Night Wars WWF & WCW fan, since that is when I got into wrestling at an early age, and I also like the Ruthless Aggression era up until 2007ish. So my customs will predominantly be from this time period (1997-2006). I am filling in the gaps with guys that Mattel haven't made or will not make, and maybe do attires that take my eye.
One thing to know is that if a skin tone on a head, or maybe the arms doesn't match completely, or is pretty damn close but not quite - I COULD NOT CARE LESS. This is my collection, and things like that do not bother me. Painting skin tone is an annoying task, and doesn't quite look right compared to mold skin tone plastic. I will do it as I deem necessary.
This first post will serve as my archive of work, and I am going to try to put links to all of my customs in alphabetical order, for easy navigation.
Thanks for reading this, and on with the customs!

Are the logos hand painted?! They sure don't look like decals. If so, AMAZING job!!! Yep all hand painted man. I try to avoid using decals because 1. To be honest I don't know how to use them, and 2. I prefer painting them. There's more fun in it and I have more control over what I do. hand painted? i see decal lines on the back of hhh I think you are using decals and then trying to paint over them. Haha that made me laugh. Yes it was 100% hand painted. Those were where I used black paint to tidy up the edge of the silver of the central H where it was a bit wobbly. I did notice that in the pics when I posted it. But I can with 100% honesty say up until this very day, I have NEVER used decals. I don't know how to use them. I do all of my paint work by hand. |

Really love your work! It's amazing an individual can produce a clean accurate figure and an actual toy company struggles.
I really like the new RVD! I would darken the sides of the hair, I don't think he had it shaved yet then. But man detail is amazing!
I know it's a aggravating question, but what kind of paint/sealer do you use? I don't know that I've seen colors do vibrant.
