Starting to rebuild this thread. Thanks to Orzo for the motivation:

Notes:
With this line, there are no rules. My sole goal is to create the most faithful versions I can, using whatever parts are necessary. This has also led to a lot of sculptwork, and this is the first project where I've employed it so heavily and in significant ways. Unlike my Joe customs that I attempt to corral to primarily Hasbro factory parts, SFII is an anything and everything line. This fucking guy started this all. I had started building most of my SF characters on Joe parts, but when Hasbro dropped this beautiful bastard, I shitcanned the project and started over to fit the increases size and aesthetic of Ryu. Probably one of my most ambitious customs in terms of parting and assembly. Arms were hybrid builds using DG SE shoulders with MU female lowers, splicing those together. Legs were similarly MU Uppers with Kwinn lowers to get the tights with boots look. I think the torso may be has best an option as there is without significant modification/sculpting. I really like how she turned out. had trouble picking a base. Really liked the mtf red German but it just wasn’t big enough. Ended up borrowing Derstalheim’s base and then went heavy on sculpting to cover the skin tight musculature. was damn near done and decided I needed to make Sagat bigger. Here’s the original: Ended up having to make a few concessions with Honda- primarily the girth. I just didn't see anyway to build up enough mass around the base toro without the proportions becoming unwieldly and throwing off the balance of his shoulders and legs. I ended up modeling him more after Pumola from Bloodsport. Had to still do quite a bit of sculpting to the torso (and gave up the torso cut joint for aesthetic purposes). Sculpted the hair and added some sculpt to the cheeks to flesh out the face. The base head is an MU Executioner, and for such a big guy, had some surprisingly gaunt features. I'm also still experimenting with the robe/towel/skirt thing, but for now, this is where I'm at. In terms of sculpting, probably my most ambitious effort. *in the effort of due credit, I want to nod to FlintRocks Tabe custom from his 80s Project. While Honda was already in production when Tabe dropped, Flint gets credit as first to publication on this body for a sumo build. Not much to Ken. Ryu repaint with a new head. Tried a few heads but this one felt the most accurate based on the original SFII iteration. Dhalsim is an older build and really the one that set the pace for this project. Sculpted shorts, and tape, a foot splice. The rest is accessorizing. Akuma is just a basic repaint of Ryu. The head was a cobble of a Savage Opress head, with sculpted hair essentially. Guile was another pretty straight forward once once I figures out the leg combo. I like the 25th Dusty legs aesthetically, but they didn't balance well with the MU torso, and left him a little short. Ultimately, I wa able to hybrid 50th Gung Ho lowers and Retaliation trooper uppers to have a good proportion and balance. Topped these off with hand painted American flag tats for authenticity and to give an otherwise boring custom a little more flair. Blanka ended up being a little more intensive that I have planned. I hollowed out the head of the Jazwares version and fitted it to a movie Sabretooth head. Had to do a little modding to get the Kwinn uppers on the MU lowers for the legs, and then sculpted the body hair and fur trim. Zangief was pretty easy. Hercules body, Hyperion boots and a modded Colossus head and this once pretty much made itself. Then texture the chest hair, but will eventually strip and re sculpt that part. All to easy thanks to the BFS blanks. Painted out the skin tone, built a new head, and this one was in the books. Balrog was a pretty straight forward design. Sculpted the hair and did my best to match his eyes, since Tombstone only had one, I only had to paint one, provided I could get them to be the same. Put in a little extra effort by sculpting the torn undershirt instead of leaving just the sleeveless tee, and used some MU bigman lowers with the Kwinn uppers to get some size. Spliced those with Kwinn’s boot tops for accuracy. Always one of my favorites. Pretty straight forward formula here- this was more about accessorizing and trying not to butcher the tattoo. sculpted a little on the shins to have the little splits in his pants and make the boots look more like stockings and a braided pony tail transplant and the rest was paint.: DeeJay turned out a lot better than I thought. Wasn't a huge fan of this character, but I dig this custom. Everything came together nicely. If you don't scrutinize the lettering too hard, I think it looks alright. Also tried to simulate the shaved Ms in the side of his head as well. Was able to add some MU Sandman lowers to the 50th Snow Job uppers and knees to add some height but still stay accurate to DeeJay's style.

These are great!
What cape is that on bison? I was planning a Ken with that head on the last pic. I like how it came out. Can't wait to see more.

I think it's from a Darth Vader of some kind.

Btw
Both heads look great. I think the first one goes better with the figure because the arm damage matches the eye damage. If I ever get around to making a Ken I might use the 2nd one myself, but you can't go wrong with either head.

Those rule! Another suggestion for a Ken head would be the MU Sentry.
