Steve Corino, Mike Awesome, Judge Jeff Jones

Nice Jeff Jones, what head is that ?
Looks a little fat in the face but its a hard head choice.

Awesome's skin tone needs work, but the head looks amazing.


Here's Judge Jeff Jones with Mike Awesome

If you're going to top an old post of yours, don't make another new one.

The hair on Corino looks extremely strange and un-natural. The logo on the tights is really well done. The boots are painted pretty nice, but they could use some sanding down.

I like the hair on Awesome, but the skintone looks strange as well. Don't go halfway, either finish the skintone or don't do one. It's way to transparent.

The Judge is pretty simple but nice.

mike awesome is awesome and really good sculpting
on the corino boots

The parts choices on all of these are great.

Corino - You chose the right head for him, which here lately most people haven't been. However the hair sculpt is way off base. I see what you were going for, but when sculpting hair it's best to make it as neat as possible like when the wrestler first comes to the ring. Action hair usually doesn't stand up to the test. Hair color looks good, might need just a tad bit more yellow. I don't care for the painted on wrist tape, I'd prefer to see you use masking tape and paint it, or sculpt it. Paint job is very well done and the logos are done nicely. Boots look great. Overall nice custom, just the hair and wrist tape kill it for me.

Mike Awesome - Head choice is iffy but works. The skin tone is a disaster. I'm not quit sure what you did to the skin, but it looks like he was washed in some sort of plastic remover. Or maybe you dry brushed a little coloring on the regular jakks color. I'm not sure.

The Judge looks really good. Head looks very accurate to my memory. Robe works. Great job.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Judge Jeff Jones was a very easy custom. Repainted a Basham head, put it on a Paul Bearer body, and sewed a robe. Overall it came out well.

I totally agree about Mike Awesome. I tried the same skin tone approach I did with my Douglas but not the same results. I'm planning to repaint it. I have the regular color skin tone painting down but the tan color I'm having issues with. Any help with paint colors would be appreciated.

As for Corino, the hair is from a different Hardy than the actual head. I don't have many spare parts to work with and that's the only hair of that length I had. I wasn't very happy with it after I got it on the figure but what can you do. I worked with it a little more and here's what I have.
