![](http://i33.tinypic.com/28chc9l.jpg) I think this is my favorite out of any I have done. I was a HUGE DDP mark back when I was real young and WCW was around. I wonder why he hasn't gotten a classic figure from his WCW tenure, yet one from his time in WWF.

The head lacks any definition at all which makes it look really flat. When smudging work a lower opacity so its not so intense. The head also lacks any shadows or highlights, practice with the burn and dodge tool a bit to get it to look more plastic. There is too much contrast in the color and the cuts look pretty rough.
The attire suffers from a lot of the same mistakes, it looks like you just painted over the existing parts with the paint brush. use the polygonal tool to select certain areas. The copy and paste the selection on another layer and desaturate it. Then use hue/saturation, color balance or replace color to change the color of it. Logo's on the pants are very blurry, try either finding clear pictures on the logos to use or draw them yourself. Keep practicing bro.

Jake hit it home man, It's like you just ploy'd copied, pasted, and hit it with the paint bucket at best. I only posted 1 fig on here ever, and I actually touched it as if it was going in a magazine. I wasn't anal, but I wasn't copy filling either. Where I'm going with this is I don't think they (members) want visuals as if they are going on storyboards at pixar studios, they want true concepts. So when you experiment you need to have some sort of knowledge about photoshop. You need to use more than that pencil / brush and smudge tool. Not sure why users intend on using that useless smudge tool all the time either, but I guess it works well for some. Keep on fooling around, and one day it will click. I took "advanced" ![::)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/rolleyes.gif) photoshop as an elective while furthering education, so it's easy for me to say. If you are winging it, It's gonna take you a little longer. Listen to some of these boardies. Jake sounds like he has a handle on it.

Why'd you spam and double post? ^^
Anyway, the fig is alright, the erasing all over is average and the head doesnt look like plastic. His logo is blurry too. But good try.
