Greetings all, before the big Wargames match, i thought i'd post some new stuff i put together. Ref pics included where available Workout gear Hogan Ref: Paul jones Ref: Greg Valentine- Street Gear Ref: A tale of two D-Lo's : I've wanted to do a D-Lo for a while, couldn't decide on a head, so i made two. Ref: Samoa Joe: Just a little test at face modding, this head has been used a lot, so i wanted to see if i could make it a bit more accurate, i'm not totally satisfied though. Super Eric: Those who watch TNA will recognize the new identity of Eric Young, sadly i couldn't find any ref pics, so i paused impact over and over on my DVR Well that's it for the moment, as always these will be on ebay later today through the link in my signature.

It's crazy how lean Hogan got back in 94-95. The hogan looks simple but good. The Joe looks really good as well. Valentine is ok, but wayyy too skinny. The Paul Jones looks like he has a really odd hair cut on the custom. His hair in the reference pic looks wavier and not so punk looking. Eric looks really good though I have no idea who it is. I really do not like the DLo or DLo's at all. The heads do not seem to work, though I see where you were going with it. The design on the tights looks good, but the rest is way off. Singlet is cut completely wrong. Too low on the sides, too square in the front. Missing the kneepads. However, He might be somebody I might attempt in the near future. He's kind of a forgotten great. Good to see a custom of him atleast. Nice job overall on all of these.

Nice work, Trap. My favorite out of these is the Hogan in workout singlet. It's a very original idea and was executed perfectly. Super Eric looks good too, only complaint is a I think the yellow should be a little more kaiki of a color. Paul Jones turned out nicely, I really like the jacket painting. I like that you tried modding Joe up, it looks good but the tights sculpt is a little sloppy up top. D lo was a good idea and was painted nicely as all the others but like Gonzo said he was thinner in that era then the parts you chose show. The head choices for D Lo seem like good ideas but just a bit too big I think, everything is painted nicely though. Valentine was a good idea but the text on his shirt could of been a little better. All in all real nice customs as always.

Lol, penis grab. I'm liking all the customs a lot and I don't think the Joe needs anymore work personally, it looks accurate enough for me. I think the Super Eric is the best out the lot

super eric looks great, but the black lines on the mask need to be straightened out.

HOGAN- looks dead on nice job on the painting the singlet.my only grip is the socks and 5 o clock shadow
paul jones-jacket looks great.head works but the hair could have been better
Greg Valentine- simple not much to say .text looks rushed and the body is to small for greg
d-lo-like everone said body is to fat but i belive the first head works ok for d-lo.nice job on the logo
Samoa Joe-looks ok
Super Eric-nice job on painting would have liked to seen a cape on him.this should do good on ebay

I love the D-Los.... Im considering making one myself.... I like the 1st scan you used..... it is the better of the 2..... The Hogan is very awesome..... It has a smooth paint job...... I like the joe too.... it is not as simple as everyone else's RA joe customs we see every day.... keep up the good work......

You have really improved within the last month or so.
Hogan- Very Impressive but the hair in the ref pic is longer. The painting is nice and smooth.
Paul Jones- The modding looks good and I like the painting on the shirt. Not much more to say about him though.
Greg Valentine- Nice skintone and I like the painted lettering on the shirt. Again, not much more to say about this custom either.
D'Lo Brown- I personally prefer the 1st one because the facial expression looks more accurate to the ref pic. The painting is nice and smooth. Good job on the designs as well.
Samoa Joe- The modded face isn't perfect, but at least he doesn't look as much like Tommy Dreamer. The modded torso looks nice and I like how you modded the tights over the torso because Joe has them pulled up quite high. Nice skintone as well. I would have preferred taller kickpad boots.
Super Eric- He looks awesome. Love the sculpted mask and the designs on the figure look very good. The painting is very smooth and clean.
