These may not be the most challenging customs ever, but they turned out alright. Bodies: Ezekiel Heads: Casts Tape: ...Electrical tape The customer just wanted a straight black gear and the arm/wrist bands. Those are made with folded electrical tape so they're flexible, and they help hide the bicep swivel too. Mournfang Brown and black for the heads, a little reddish brown for the lips and inside the ears. I like how mellow Ron looks compared to his buddy with the fierce eyebrows lol. I may have to add a black outline to his eyes to reduce the crazy look.  You can see how rough the headcasts were, I used like 10 layers of paint to help even out the surface and fill pinholes.   |

“Simple” but effective. Great work. Def stealing that tape idea!

I did something similar to make a generic Ron Simmons using a Jakks head on a Zeke body. Did this long before Mattel released any Simmons figures. I figured it would work for the WCW Doom era or the Attitude era Acolytes. Probably would have done Butch too but I didn't have a head that worked.
As noted by others, simple yet effective.

I’d buy a Doom 2 pack! Would be awesome with alternate heads. (Regular and Masked)
You did a great job!

I have no idea how I missed these the first time around but they're fantastic! Sometimes less is more.

Lol, thanks peeps. (I haven't been around in a while)
The heads were casts provided by the customer, but I'm sure you can find them on ebay or something.
