I started these over the weekend at our local customizing meet, and got to painting the heads today, so I thought I'd post some pics. I still need to go back over parts of the head cause I can see some of the primer showing through...
When I was younger, after growing out of my Joes, they turned into wrestlers... so now, it's time to turn my wresters.. into Joes, lol...

The heads are cast shrunken heads from our very own Keenan. I'm gonna make a whole squad of them with the heads I got, after I finish these two, I'll do The Big Bad Booty Daddy Scott Steiner and The Madness himself, Macho Man!!!

The Madness and Big Bad Booty Daddy!!!!

I'm gonna have to do something with that pouch on The Madness' belt, it keeps making the vest tilt, which makes the upper torso tilt, so he looks all weird and gimpy, lol..

Big Bad Booty Daddy is gonna be their Weapon's expert, I think I'm gonna mod some stormtrooper lower arms on him too, so he's all armored up.. I might give him a mech too, but I'm not sure, maybe just a couple huge guns to tote around. I couldn't find him any decent webgear or anything cause of the huge armor, then I saw a broken spartan, lol.. and figured.. that might just work.. I kinda like it, even though it's a little big, I might change the shoulder part so it doesn't look too halo-ish..

Let me know whacha think..

Cool stuff, a George the animal Steel would also rock. Scott Stiener is hysterical, good choice using the Bazooka body

I have Sting and Booker T planned next, that was gonna be my lil' 6 man team, then I can do the painting, I wanted to do them together so I get all the paint mixed all at once. Someone mentioned Slaughter, so I might throw him in as a team leader or something.. I still have like 10 more wrassler heads so maybe another team or two in the future...

I don't have a George Steel head though.. not sure he'd fit, and plus.. just the thought of all that hair, lol.. I think I'll pass..
