If it is Yemma, I definitely think you should lengthen the legs, particularly the thighs, because the legs are out of proportion with the feet, arm length, head size, and body size. You could add about an inch of material to the thighs and shins and fix that. I wouldn't shorten the arms as a shortcut because it will not look as good and you'll basically be cutting just as much, and just as hard of a material.

I'm assuming this is gonna be king Yemma correct? Either way this is gonna turn out awesome! What happened to your old method of doing customs? You've been on a roll with tough customs!

I originally planned for this to be Ox King, but the switch would be easy. Believe me, I want to make Yemma instead, and maybe I still will, but this Ox base will be 7.5 inches and if I make Yemma, I want him to be at least 9-10 inches. I suppose I could lengthen the legs and use it for Yemma. Alright, Yemma it is.

Was the old method 'knocking out a bunch of small customs and then doing a major one, then repeat'? If so, yeah, I miss that because I felt like I was getting a lot more done, but recently, characters we don't see made, that are important, have been sparking my interest. I.e. Wheelo, Super 13, now Yemma. Maybe I'll revert back to that method after this next big project. I can't wait to have a Yemma creating order on my shelves. "You listen to me! I'm sending you down to the 5th shelf, you no-good evil-doer!"

I am starting this big guy today. Here are my plans. As you see, he'll still require a fair amount of apoxie, but this base will take up a lot of filler thankfully. Some of you may not like that I'm getting rid of so much articulation, but hello! It's Yemma. He never used it in the series lol (except when he ran Snake Way in Pre-DB)

Since I may never end up making him, I wanted to help you out with prototyping him. His anatomy is different from a standard person I just discovered, so his legs are very short for his height. I hope you can maintain his elbow, wrist, and finger articulation. This image might be fanart or a reconstruction of Toriyama art, whatever it is, the proportions are good and will work. By adding height to the torso, you'll be correcting the elbow placement, and it should be a lot easier than doing the legs. Here's the settei character model sheet for Yemma (Enma Dao) If I were you, I'd roll up some plastic bags or bubble wrap and tape them onto the belly to take up space, and then cover in hot glue so you don't have to waste a ton of apoxie making him fatter. Your final layer should be apoxie.

Cool, thanks. Adding height to the torso will be easier than the legs too. That fanart image is already the exact pic I'm using as reference I will use some sort of filler instead wasting apoxie. I did that on Wheelo's waist. I used paper towels and wrapped them tight with tape. Then apoxied over it. I can maintain the elbow, wrist, and finger articulation. The shoulders, I will change from ball joints to swivel simply by adding more mass to the beginning of his current shoulders. Do you think the fingers are too large?

The fingers are huge, but nobody will really care I don't think.
