So when I posted my Doc Venture custom, someone asked if they could expect any other characters from the show. They could. Because what's the Doc without Brock? Attachment: brock.jpg [ 217.63 KiB | Viewed 753 times ] I'll probably be adding a knife sheath to his belt and if I can find some permed hair I'll be updating his mullet. But in the meantime, I think he'll work: Attachment: brock and doc.jpg [ 318.63 KiB | Viewed 753 times ] What do you guys think? |

Something about the face feels off. But, everything else is perfect. |

I'm ok with the face, but the hair doesn't quite work for me, but if you find more of a permed mullet, that'd make him perfect. |

Great choice of parts; This is a very 'real' or human version of Brock if you get me... |

The hair is the hardest part. There really isn't anything out there like it and it changes shape and size form episode to episode. |

If your theme is realistic/plausible looking versions inspired by the show, then I think Brock is awfully close here. But I think you need to go the full monty with him personally. Doc Venture looks like he walked right off the screen (and is completely production level at that), so I say do Brock in a way that seems larger than life to match his show appearance more directly also. I can't remember if it was Iron Will or Robulus (guessing it was Will) who did a pretty crazy accurate version of Brock a ways back. I think a toon-accurate look is needed to compliment Doc. Sadly, other than checking out the other custom I saw, I don't have any great parts suggestions yet. If I did, I might have done one already myself. But like I said, in terms of more realistic takes on the character, this is right on. |

The body works well, it's the face that isn't quite on. That face says "Meh, I don't really care", but a Brock face would say "I will kill all of you with only my pinky toe". It's the intensity of the eyebrows that will make or break it. I wish I could think of a good suggestion, there aren't many really intense faces around... I was sort of toying with the MU Cable as an idea. Also, a cigarette would not be out of place. |

Thanks guys. I was definitely going for a more realistic version of Brock as both he and the Doc are going to interact with my Joes. That said, I know the hair is off. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out how to get that chunky perm look on the mullet. I think that would get it where I want it to be, but I really have no idea how to go about it. In the meantime, I may revisit his eyebrows to try and mean him up a bit. Might add the cigarette, too. I appreciate all the feedback. It's helpful. |

As for a head, maybe the first MU Punisher head, which I think was part of the discussion when you did Road Pig as well, if I remember right Spin. |
