I started these less than 24 hours ago. I had the day off and really wanted to work on some other stuff. I like to take progressional pics during the process so I can post them on my customs myspace for people and future potential buyers to see what it looked like before, during and then the end. I hope you guys enjoy them a bit..
The Brian Kendrick: **The Facial Hair Has Been FIXED**
Warlord:
I made the Warlord staff with an old broken paint brush and sculpy..

only thing im not too fond of is the goatee on spanky
keep it up bro
I like how it looks in person. I kept trying to get a good picture of it, but it just never seemed to come out the way I wanted it to. I will try for better pics, if not I will just find a better way for his facial hair. Thank you for the comment. I will change it up..
looks good man! I like that you painted it and didnt use decals. The sculpting on warlord is ace too.
I've never found using decals to be my kind of work. Some people can really make it look good with their customs. I appreciate you responding to my figures..

Great job on Kendrick and Warlord. The logos on Kendrick look extremely well done. Very professional.
The Sculpting on Warlord's shoulder pads is excellent. The W could use some work, but hell, I've seen worse attempts at that one, haha. Great job nonetheless.
Amazing job on the Kendrick. I really love the shot by shot pictures as it really shows the detail that went into this. I love the logos on the trunks. Very nice stuff.
The Warlord is not my favorite from you but it is still very good.

Thank you everyone! I know the Warlord 'W' Staff didn't turn out well, but I wasn't patient enough with it and honestly could've cared less. I made it just to make. There are always going to be pieces like everyone else that'll be considered not their best work. I think the Warlord and The Brian Kendrick turned out well. I will probably never really like my customs as much since I make them and have to look and work on them. I still enjoy doing them, I just can't put myself over with my work.
Kendrick looks great, the detail on the trunks looks pretty dead on. As for the Warlord, the chest plate (shoulder pads) are extremely well done, the "Phantom" mask and staff looks a little thick though. I would have liked to seen what you could have done with an actual Warlord head. It appears like you have some skills and are more than capable of modifying that head and removing hair and paint to get a more realistic Warlord.

coming from someone who actually created the brian kendricks logos for this design in photoshop, it is a bunch of work. took me at least a hour to make them so they are SOME work.
as far as your customs they look pretty solid. painting is smooth and everything seems to be accurate.
