So are we openly admitting that Jay is Scott Hall?
Great work everyone.

I hate hasbros. I hate Ed Leslie. And I hated the Zodiac. But that is an awesome figure. Gore's is quite spiffy too. Looks like the Horseman win again.

We all 4 did a different style of figure, along with the different gimmick. Just a little added touch. Everyone turned out some good work, and I'm very proud of everyone for being patient while becca got the pics ready. She really does work hard, and I'm sure it helps when people aren't asking every 10 seconds when pics will be up.

It is a tad disappointing nobody did 3-count Shane Helms.
but anyways...MY GOD...what great customs...
Importracer did an amazing job. His macho man is really good. The paint is so smooth. The pose looks nice. Everything is good. Very solid custom.
The four versions of one wrestler idea is such a good idea..kinda pisses me off nobody thought of that before when I was involved in custom tourneys...
The standouts obviously are Gore and Rome. Jesus, Gore has improved his game so much more. I love that custom. I still can't get over how much it looks like the disciple...Romes Helms is so realistic it is scary..
Such a hard contest to judge...
If I had to pick and if my vote even means anything I would have to go
Bio Import Beyondo and the Gold Horsemen

I'm very happy with everyone’s work, I think the overall winner of the night goes to Beyondo's Godwinns followed by Bartman's Mikey Whipwreck & Oozing's Zodiac. Special considerations also go out to nydream989 & ImportRacer as I think both of you have stepped up your games big time over the last few events. Guster your Jarrett looks amazing the only problem i have with it is the head, wither it's just a bad choice for the face, the painting looks off or maybe even the camera flash but something looks off to me with it. Titantrap the chest on your Butcher looks like it was butchered and the head reminds me more of Mike Awesome than it does Leslie. Gore I really hate to take shots at you because honestly you do very good work, but as the top dog in this game I think you are lacking. At first glace I was going to give you the best overall figure of the night until I looked at more pictures of the Disciple and noticed just how sloppy the NWO on the back and the detail on the sides look. Other than that everything else looks amazing. Gater I’ve already talked about this with you but I don't really care for the head choice you used on the Booty Man but other than that it looks flawless. NWO you all came up looking really weak and I was rooting for you.

Sandy, your vote does mean a lot, and I know that I personally would really like to see you go more into detail. Explaining each custom and what you like and dislike about them.

I don't have time to write 10 pages about all of these customs, but almost all of them are phenominal. I'm just gonna say who I thought won, no commentaries right now. Maybe Saturday when I get more time I'll put some words down.
Match 1 - Biohazard
Match 2- Dr. Angus
Match 3 - Import
Match 4 - Beyondo
Match 5 - Gold Horsemen, I put NWO down originally, but I took another quick look at all the pics and decided that Gold deserved the vote more.

I can't fault you for your comment about the chest, what i will say is i will never attempt a ring giant in that way again, filling in the chest joint and the modding it involved, i re-did it and re-did it a hundred times and i still am not totallly satisfied with it.

You know what I didn't even remember that Ring Giants had movement in the chest (never paid attention to them as I thought they were junk). So at first I didn't know why you would do anything with the chest and thought it was rather stupid that you did so I was harsh, now realizing that it isn't totally your fault I still think it looks funny but bad but that’s understandable. I'm not a total A-Hole lol.

No problem Gatecitysinner I just didn't want to bore everyone..I would be happy to go more in-depth on each custom.
GateCitySinner- Such a good clean custom.The head works to an extent but it loses the look from the nose down. But there aren't many head scans with a shit-eating grin that the brutus used to have. I would have modded the cheeks a bit because he always had that chipmunk look to him. The hair is good but it doesn't have that 80's look that he was always rocking... I love the attire though along with the skintone. Very very nice skintone. I wish you would have done the barber instead...but whatever. Still a very solid custom. You have continued to improve with each custom. But when picking your next custom, really challenge yourself. Don't give yourself an easy ride just because you know your abilities...really test your painting skills with a more difficult attire....test your sculpting skills by doing some extreme modding to a body or maybe even a FHS (i know...nobody ever does those anymore...). You have the talent, so test yourself...even if you fail it will only help you get better.
Beyondo- Do I even need to critique this? I mean I feel kind of silly. Such great customs. The only thing I can say is I am not a big fan of the overalls...the sculpting is excellent but the color has a metallic feel to it rather than a denim look...That could just be the flash from the camera though. The other thing is that I don't like Phineas' head...if thats even how you spell his name...Henry is really good though. Excellent customs.
Guster-.....haha. I really love it. I love Double J and the Roadie. You really put a lot of effort into this one. Jeff Jarrett had some funky ass attires that were very intricate...you got the details down. I am impressed. The boots are one of my favorite parts on double j. I am not a big fan of the head around the mouth area. The eyes and the hair are spot on though. Roadie looks soo good. I love it. I have never seen a Roadie custom...ever. It is nice to see something new...it is refreshing to say the least.
TCKDeen- Such a talented customizer that makes stupid mistakes. NEVER EVER USE PRINTOUT BELTS. Sculpt the mother effer. Or at least have the strap be real and have the plates be the printout...that would even be better than a paper belt. The torso is wrong for Helms. The guy has never been that out of shape...ever. The nipples look like they are too far a part. Other than that it is really good. The tights, elbow pads, and knee pads look very nice and clean...love the wrinkles and the hands. The head is good...but I probably would have went with one where his eyes were open. Overall a good custom but looks like you got lazy in places.
Bartman- Haha. I love Mikey Whipwreck customs...There have only been like 3. One of them being the best one I have ever seen...courtesy of Downfall. I love this one though. The shirt really stands out. You picked a really good shirt to paint. Attire choice is a big part of customizing. KNowing what will look good and what won't work on a figure 6 inches tall. The back of the shirt could be better...but whatever. The head kinda looks like him but is a little thin. Mikey has a fat face. Everything else is nice and clean.
Like I said it is so hard to critique these. They are so good. I am used to ripping a new a**hole on some of these customizers who don't even paint skintones...but these are really good. I am impressed with everyone.

It is nice to see something new...it is refreshing to say the least. This was the particular look I was going for with the slight under-bite. If people on the classifieds board acted like they were older then 10 years old, I would have done the hat. I still will, but I need to track one down (hint, hint). The Roadie was so much fun to do. I really wanted to do a Double J, and when Beyondo suggested the tag team stip, I figured the Roadie would be really boring. But after doing the hat, fanny pack, access badges, it turned out to be awesome. The glasses were a pain in the ass to do (especially paint the way they were on his nose). I'll eventually replace the towel with real clothe instead of toilet paper. I'll be selling the figures one way or another. If anybody is interested before I put them on ebay (won't be for another 2 or 3 weeks probably), let me know.

first off i would like to thank Biohazard for the good competition.... Now on to my votes.......
ANGUS-I picked you for this one because i feel it is a very nice smooth paint job and the sculpting is great...... It is more accurate of the 2 customs.... Kenny i do like yours but i think Angus has a slight edge on you.....
BARTMAN-I loved all of the 4 customs in this match but i pick the Mikey Whipwreck simply because it is the most accurate and smoothest custom in the match........
JAY-I love this tag set an i am going as far as to say these are my favorite customs of all time!!!! I believe the painting and sculpting is the best ive seen and the most accurate in a long time...... Great job!!!!!
Goldhorsemen- I picked them because this team worked together awesome...... All four of them are smooth accurate andd look good.... They have different styles but look like a team..... Great job guys.....
