 painted the mask a base black,the repainted on the flames in a darker shade of red...alos put some gloss sealer on the mask and glove/armbands to give them a more leathery type of look...  also repainted the HC Belt,giving it the red and blue paint splotches it had,as well as filling in the black where it used to be on the Winged Eagle...  I'm sure there are those who can do this better than me,but I'm happy with the way it came out!  |

LOVE that title, that's how it should have been from the start.

this looks 50% better.
Give him the glossy boots from elite 10 or 22 Kane (or just paint them glossy black).
and give him bigger ripped arms....and it'll be 100% better.
seriously if the mask and belt looked like that. I would've ordered this fig.

looks good, but shouldn't this be in fix-up thread or customs board not here in it's own thread?

Great work! Kane is my favorite wrestler and I haven't ordered the figure just yet, but you convinced me that I need to get him apart of my collection.

again,I ask myself:
why did I have to do this? why didn't Mattel just paint the mask properly in darker colors to begin with? why not properly paint the HC title? they can't say it's because it's not vac! they painted the dull Winged Eagle that came in the Punk-Savage BP!

That title looks amazing. What did you use for the blue and red? I want to paint mine too, but am unsure what type of paint to use.

Yeah, that title looks great. Mattel did an excellent job with the plating, but the lack of color splotches makes it feel so incomplete and too "clean." Combine it with Kane's lackluster paint job on the mesh/mask and it hurt that figure immensely. This? This is something I'd be interested in.

Tell me, why are you not working for Mattel? Seriously, that is much, much better. |

tho i think the mask should've been darker. It didn't bother me as much because the red on the attire is still bright.
my problem is the awful paint job they did. The crooked, wavy, mishapen red lines on the mask looked bad.
so it doesn't just look better because of the colors u chose. Its that u can paint a straight line, unlike the mattel factory

That looks phenomenal. Great job! I've noticed that the belt itself is made pretty inaccurate for the time period -- by the time Kane won the Hardcore title, there was hardly anything left of it. It was just a strap and some tape.  They seem to have based it on how it looked back when Mankind and Bossman had it. |
