...argubably, my best at least. Well, it was definitely the custom that I have put the most effort in at least! In my past customs, not sure if anyone really caught on, but there hasn't really been anything too difficult detail wise, and I've always shifted away from doing any big details. For my PPV match, I knew it was going to be a hard match, so I knew I had to bring my A-game, which would involve doing some major detail. I changed my mind a million times before deciding on Whipwreck. I'd like to think this is my A-game, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to win in the end. Oh well! If anyone wants this, just drop me a PM. ECW Mikey WhipwreckProtos

You are right this is your best to date.Only thing i would have done is blend a little more purple in the shirt and add a red tint to the hair

I like it. Wish Jakks would make this figure in the CS line.

I honestly don't think this is your best work. Maybe the most work put into a custom, but sometimes the best work doesn't have the most work. I felt this custom was lacking on many levels. May be just me. Its a good custom and did a great job, but I think you could have done a lot better.
I have to admit. Until I did that Randy and Chuck, I had never really attempted going after a lot of paint details before. My most extensive paint detail was probably my Steve Corino back in the day, which sadly I can't find the pics for.

I like it man, the sculpting is really nice minus the shirt goes up a bit too far on his neck. The painting all looks nice and smooth and I like the front of the shirt a lot, the back seems lacking a bit but I could be wrong. Head seems to work pretty well for Mikey, I dont know another head to use for him that would work off the top of my head. Nice work.

Is that a Jeff Hardy head? Wouldn't have crossed my mind, but works quite well. Great use.

if you look at then proto pics you can see the legs of bobby eaton and from the looks it's the head of Stan Lane, so it's a Midnight Express collaboration. lol

First of all I don't think it's your best, but it is one of your better customs. The shirt is my favourite part of the custom. The tie-dye look turned out and looks great. The shirt design looks good as well. Modded hair is well done as well as the skintone. Good head choice. The modded elbow and kneepads add a lot to the figure as well.
