It looks good, but why does his hair look like a frosted oatmeal cookie?

I'm not too much a fan of the hair color but the figure looks good man. Hopefully someone buys it up.

It looks like he's wearing a shower cap but apart from that it's superb, I love the painting, it's very bright and clean. That's one of the best Hornswoggles I've seen too, the Austin head works really well.

The problem with the hair is it's too helmet-like. I can understand this, Sweeney's hair is pretty difficult to do. On the forehead, the hair needs to be different lengths. The color should be less oatmeal-like, and more golden. He has that golden blonde hair. Try painting brown first, and go over it with a wash of yellow.
I like the singlet. The colors are all right and sharp looking, the stars are really good. There are minor details I have to nitpick about though. The fabric underneath the singlet should be a leopard skin pattern, not zebra. Sweeney wears purple kneepads with white padding underneath usually. I think the pink on the boots should be of a paler shade and should also go up the front of the boots, bordering the laces. He also usually wears tape on his fingers and one white elbow pad on his right elbow.

That looks really nice the only improvement I might make is adding a touch of yellowish orange in the cheetah pattern. I think overall this is a solid figure. Great job.

Great job Texacide, the paint job is smooth and clean once again. The only thing that is lacking is the hair sculpt. That hair style is very hard to pull off, I couldn't begin to tell you how to do it, but it looks decent nonetheless. Something I've noticed lately is your hair sculpting has been off, mine hasn't been great either, but your customs overall are great.

he posted it because Tex also posted a link to his Hornswoggle auction, kind of on topic yet pointless too

I think the Chris Hero figure is not that good. The head choice is horrible. The attire choice is nice, but why the skinny arms and skinny legs? The only good part of the custom is the tights design.

These are very good attempts. The Hero head is the worst part of him. The eyes just kill it. They look nothing like Hero's eyes. That offsets the look of the whole figure. The tights and shirt are excellent though. Just get a better head.
Sweeney is great. His face is very good, but the hair, as others have said, is in need of some help. I can see what you were trying to do and how it is pretty hard to do his hair right, but it just seems flat and helmet like. Other than that, great attire. Well painted and stuff.

amazing body for Hero but the head isn't something I'd use... I'd say use a JBl head
