This is my first custom. I sanded the original Nikita Koloff head, added sculpey to bring down the eyebrows and re-painted him. He is also wearing a custom NWA U.S title I made. I am looking for opinions good or bad. Thanks.

Why should it be there It is not a part switch. The head is modified and re-sculpted and repainted. there is also a custom accessory added to it for style points. Decent job Mike, I see the resemblance.

The belt and chain look very nice. Not to big on the scan though.

I cut 1/8 brass filed it and engraved it. I put it onto a piece of black vinyl(which can easily be replaced with real leather. As of right now I am not selling them, but maybe down the road if enough people express interest. I am working on an old hogan belt, and NWA tag belts. I will post these when I am done.

Love the belt, not a fan of the head fixup - looks somewhat sloppy

Love the belt. Nice attempt on the fix. I wish Jakks would have done a better job on this figure. It was in my top 10 wants from the beginning of the CS line.

Thats AMAZING!!! I would buy a whole slew of NWA belts from you (World, US, TV, (2) Tags) and even more

the work done on the head is decent and i can see where you were trying to go with it. i like it and the orig was no good anyway so good try. the belt is fantastic though. nice work

That belt looks awesome!!! I love it, I've been wanting to try engraving to make some belts but I can't afford the equipment and I wouldn't know where to start. If you are doing the old WWF Big Green Belt I would be interested in buying one. The Koloff looks good too, don't listen to the idiot that says it should be in customs discussion. The only thing I don't like about Koloff's head is it looks a bit shiny around the chin, the expression is a massive improvement on the strange expression Jakks chose for him.
