The head is all wrong and so is the torso. You should have used the cruiser torso. I'm not sure which head to use. I'm just sure that isn't the one. I can't really tell if the trunk design is all decal or a mix of paint and decal. So I won't comment on that. Overall this isn't all that good and is more or less part swapping.

I knew that many people would dislike the torso choice but I had my reasons. I also understand that people were going to be mixed about the head choice. I personally think that the second Orton looks less like Dibiase than this does. As for the logos the writing is a decal but the gold detailing is hand painted. The thing I have to disagree with is calling this merely a part switch when I repainted the attire. I have seen fix-ups on here and this was much more effort and time consuming than that.

Firstly since you painted the gold on the trunks by hand. Good job. I'm sure it was tough to make it look good. I also don't fault you for using a decal for the lettering. Lettering that small is tough to do unless your skill level is high and even then it isn't easy. The part swap comment may have been a little harsh. Still other than the gold design this should have been really easy. I know other people post worse than this by far but it really is barely a custom. More of a repaint/part swap. Keep it up though and try to be more adventurous with future customs.
