Hey there, great board and great customs. Wanted to post my first custom job in a very long while, I used to be a Warhammer 40K guy from eons ago, and did minis and dioramas. Gave it up for a while with work and kids and all that, but recently felt that creative spark flare up again.
Anyway, I really love the Build n Brawl line (except for the 2 Batista thing) but I doubt it'll be around long enough to do too many more figures. So I got antsy and decided to pick up a spare Shawn Michaels to make a DX version for myself. I only got a webcam for now, so I apologize in advance for the crappy pic quality.
This is the original, clean-shaven, white attire (along with a little DX pose for my desktop):
I use Games Workshop acrylics, so I painted the pants and wristbands flat black, and added the little neon green DX logos on the wrists:
I did the shoe tips in green also, and then made the green X logo down the legs. I added a green stripe along the side to break up the monotony a bit. I also decided to make him one of those poncho style shirts with the sides cut:
Finally I thinned a little brown leather and drybrushed on that rugged 5 o'clock shadow. And the finished product:
Now I need to get another HHH to complete the duo.
~D~
