I think I would kill small kittens for that scan (beard painted properly, skin tone tan) on a ripped CW torso (ala John Morrison) in purple trunks that say MACHO KING on the back, gold knee pads and white boots....I might have to pick one of these heads up

I agree, a "Hasbro-ey" Macho King look would be cool. I liked the short period of time he was the Macho King before he started wearing the long tights. Wars

Here are some reference pictures of purple Macho King trunks taken from an auction. I suppose original credit goes to the guy mentioned on the picture.

I'm still really Happy I know it probably doesn't belong here, but did you use primer for his attire/head? just wondering since i use acryllic and it comes off. Oh, and good job on the painting of the head. it makes me want to buy one off ebay.

i made belts out of actual brass. i am planning on making the crown out of it as well and glueing actual jewels onto it. i agree with wars my favorite king was when he was in the purple tights. i am also going to make a ceptor. i even plan on making that seat that they carried him on. i will post pix of all, and if you guys like them i will sell them. i have the crown all drawn out, i just need my head for the actual width.

I just received mine today (unpainted) I agree with everybody, amazing sculpt but too thin... I'm still really Happy It looks so much better with the beard painted in all the way instead of how she painted it. I agree completely. Seeing Whydrafts painted version really makes me like the head much more. I still think it was done too tall and too thin, however her sculpting ability is magnificent and with it painted like Whydraft did, the likeness comes out much more.

ANYONE WANT TO TRADE A ADA CHAN MACHO MAN HEAD FOR THIS BODY? you are silly if you think anyone would trade an Ada head for that body. The boots are sloppy. There is pink at the top of the boots where it should be white. It just overall looks like it took 20 minutes and you want to trade it for a piece of art that probably took hours. Granted the head probably only cost everyone who bought it around 20 bucks. But it just looks like a very easy paintjob from someone who looks like he can paint and is just trying to cheap his way into getting the Macho head.
