    I thought that Hulk body looked good already but your mod did really make it look so much better. The paint issue ended up being a good thing!

    Just that tiny amount of extra space made a world of difference with proportions.

    Is that a custom Hulk head sculpt? Cuz I really like it, super 90s. All this bad boy needs a black tank top.

    The head started out as an enlarged Toybiz Smart Hulk head. I did resculpt the hair, and lengthened the back of the head with epoxy. I'm working another that be more like a Mezco style with soft goods including a tank top.

    It's a enlarged casting of the Toybiz Smart Hulk head, and I resculpted the hair. Yeah, the MVC2 game sprite looked a lot like the Smart Hulk from the nineties.
