I might get rid of Goku's base... I've been holding it while painting him, so it has been convenient.

For some crazy reason I would keep the base and paint it to resemble the ground.

Got some stuff from Timone so I couldn't wait to do some stuff with it. I think this happy Goku cp head will work fine as a starting point for a replacement head on this Gohan. The question is... shall I make it long hair Gohan or short hair? This Bojack movie Gohan is basically done lol. I just need to repaint the skin on the body to match the head. I already redid some of the red and made it so the body could stand. I might as well sculpt the neck thicker since I have to paint it anyway. This minor custom for dbzunbound might be done. I just need to clear the symbols so they are a little more protected from ink loss. The head wasn't a big deal to put on, I just had to Vaseline the neck and fill the head with hot glue with minor chopping. I have the old head just sitting on top of Timone's neat Yamcha he started. I glued a few pieces onto it and redid the stance (see the how to get started customizing topic for instructions how). I should have a head for him within the month I hope. This figure, along with my Bulma, Goku, and Korin are really inspiring me to finish a few things. I always enjoy the chopping and gluing stage like tonight more than any other process when customizing.

Good to see you getting back into some new projects. Go with a long hair version for the armor Gohan.

You start twice as many customs as you finish. Lol
Make Gohan long haired.
The BU Gohan looks so good. So glad I got that body.

Or rather, you should say, "I'm so glad bran found me that body"

So you guys are wanting me to make the "Yamcha in armor" version of Gohan. Hmm. I haven't seen those episodes in awhile. Are you sure it's appropriate? When did Goku give him a haircut? I don't want to make the long hair version if his height was shorter, because I can't make this body any shorter without making it look funny, and I can't make it less muscular. So I don't want to make a figure of Gohan being a year younger than when he was SS. The whole "being able to swap heads between all 4 figures" aspect gets lost if I make a head that doesn't make any sense at all on the purple body or Bojack movie body.

Yeah... I think I'm changing my mind. I'm going to make a happy head for Bojack Gohan. It was my original intention anyway, and I think it'll be a better addition to my collection.

After seeing that pic you probably are better off just going with short hair for the armor Gohan. I like the idea of the smiling face for the Bojack version too.

To answer your question...Goku cut Gohan's hair after he turned SS for the first time. I have plans to make him. I agree your new idea is better because Gohan was pretty serious in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and a bit happier in movie 9 before Bojack's crew showed up. The only reason I initially said do the long haired version of Gohan in armor was because they don't show him that much with his short normal form hair. Then again, he first showed glimpses of SS2 from his normal form.

These look to have a lot of promise! I see that you've decided to change Piccoli to King Piccolo instead. I like it. And Yamcha will be great! Really looking forward to it.

hm...the King Piccolo looks like it will be awesome.
I have a quick recommendation, I planned on using a scarf from an Irwin Chi Chi on the Yamcha, I doubt you'll be interested in buying one just to get a scarf but it could save you some time.

I am so slow lol. I only just realised which Yamcha version you are making. I was thinking it was weird having the belt sash up there
