Why don't you like resin? It's far superior over polystone, plus your adon and Abel are made with resin.
Don't let that stop you!
No Abel and Adon are full polystone, they are as heavy as Bison for example. I had some SF customs that were made from resin and they were too light unfortunately. Had to sell them again.

Actually the adon is made using resin and fiberglass (hailmaw sculptures) and I'm pretty sure the Abel is resin too.

Here we go: (you can change the sizes to meet your tastes)
-3/4" dowel for the shaft
-4" dia wooden base
-A small magnet
-Satin black spray paint
-Black felt
-Ducto cement (crazy glue is fine)
-Elmer's glue
First I shaped the top of the 4" dowel to roughly match the inside of the head. It doesn't need to be exact because the magnet will hold it securely, but you do need the correct angle so the head sits level. Next drill a small hole for the magnet *! make sure not to go to deep so that the magnet sits flush!* Use the Dutco cement or equivalent to secure the magnet in the dowel.
Then you drill a 3/4" hole for the dowle into the base and glue it in place.
Once glue is dry just spray paint it black. (some sanding might be needed before you paint)
Finally use Elmer's glue to attach a piece of black felt to the bottom.
Your done!!



And I know what I'm doing this weekend
Those stands look mint, great addition for display.

Nope, definately polystone. got that confirmation from ------- and the commissioniste.

In direct comparison to all the other commissions I had from Street Fighter they are almost 5 times as heavy as those and the only 2 worth keeping (imo of course).

Stands are great for displaying extra heads.

I actually like to display all the extra parts like this for instance:



Seriously though, those headstands are great.
They definitely make the whole collection look better.
But I don't have the skills!
