DA 'Sick' Nick Mondo!! My First Custom!!

[realmansman]

This is my first custom!
It's pretty much a copy off the one another guy on here did, but i added the scratches on the back, and did a sloppier paint job
I still haven't perfected the use of tape to make straight lines, it still bleeds through a little and makes my paint lines un-even.

Also I have a question for you guys...I used Testors paint, and even after it dried it's still a little sticky, what kind of sealer or such product should I use?

All in all, I'm very pleased with the results...A little sloppy on the paint, but better than I expected! The green is a little off too, it should have been more of a lighter neon green, almost yellow. But I love the way the back scratches came out!

Sorry the pics aren't great..I borrowed my girlfriend's crappy camera...I'll make her buy a better one once I start making more customs!!

Thanks, and be gentle, this is my first custom!

For a first time I think it looks really good

You're right, the back scars look great

[Bozwell634™]

That looks really good. The scars on his back looks so real and authentic.
Only thing is the white wrist tape, but that is nothing in the sight of things.

[bwiwrestling]

i really like it but the scars do look good but its a little overkill.

[XHW]

it looks very good but not so many scars

That looks great, real smooth paintjob, great parts choice, etc. Scars look good but seems like too many but I am not the most familiar person with Sick Nick Mondo though so he could of had that many. Either way, nice work.

looks awsome

[purplekangaroo]

It's not bad for ur first custom.

[themacattack]

For a first custom, it looks awesome! Good job!

I like the Johnny head, and I really like the scars on the back.

[Lewscher]

for a first thats pretty awesome.....
it looks ok ..... lines arent that off...... and the scars are legend

[Nick Maniwa]

The scars are too much. You missed his UNSCARRED stomach tattoo, that is a big part of who Mondo was. Should've done some makeup around the eyes. The green on the pants looks ok.

[wwefan123456]

Looks awesome for your first custom, but you missed his stomach tattoo, but other than that it looks great.

[bencw]

I didn't so the stomach tattoo or the 'mondo' on his wrist tape because im terrible at keeping a steady hand for details. I had a hard enough time doing the "sick" on the head

[KoB3]

That is pretty good for a first!

[perilloboy123]

I wish my first custom turned out that well. The scars look awesome, but you may have added a little too many. I hope to see more stuff from you in the future. Nice job.

redo the torso man.. You put WAY too many scars on his back. Try to redo it with less scars, and with them as a less vivid color. Only really fresh cuts look that purple. Add a few scars to his chest and a few to the back.. ADD THE UNSCARRED! it's one of the biggest parts of Mondo! Even if you get a fine tipped paint pen, that's a must.

The rest of the figure looks really good, but the torso just isn't right at all..
