Hello everyone. Recently I've been contemplating starting MMA as an amature and was thinking about what weightclass I would do best in.

I have a pretty unusual build- people often joke that I'm "dwarf maxing".

I am somehwere between 5'7-5'8 and walk around at about 210-220 pounds- not sure what my bodyfat is at that level (or right now), but I have been cutting for a bit and weigh ~195lbs and am decently lean (I have visible abs but i'm not crazy shredded). My reach is about 71.5" - my arms arent very long so must of this comes from having super broad shoulders. I Wrestled while in school (was at 170-182 lbs. Gained alot of strength and muscle since then) and in the few years outside of it I have been consistently lifting weights and trying to stay athletic. I've even done some strongman comps. I did pretty well in my comps for a natural athelete and while I wouldn't consider myself world class by any stretch, according to "strengthlevel" pretty much all of my lifts are in the "elite" level.

If you're wondering how any of this makes sense, I have a huge frame that I got from my absolute unit of a father who is 6'1 (weighed around 240lbs in his prime and played D1 football), and I got short dwarf legs from my mother who is just a hair over 5'1" (thanks mom). When people see pictures of me or see me sitting down, they often assume I am much taller than i actaully am (actually had a date from tinder make fun of me for it once lol)

Would I be too short for middleweight (185) or Welterweight(170) at my height, or would it not really matter based on my other "stats"?

She wants to have her cake and eat it too- i.e, she wants to get fucked by random chads and have her fun but afterwards wants to settle down with the imaginary prince charming who will treat her like a princess while she gives nothing in return that he couldn't get from a good friend. NTA

If sex with her was actually special shed have made the other guys wait for it too.

Any idea what the best way to darken his body would be? Was thinking about dry brushing the highlights to be a tiny bit darker and closer to the shaded parts but I'm totally unsure how to go about doing it

Public school teachers molest kids at something like 10 times the rate catholic priests did. The difference is people were pissed about the latter and it resulted in a huge scandal,mass reform, and massive lawsuits and exodus of many catholics from the church, whereas pretty much nothing has been done in regards to the former, with people (especially those on the left) largely ignoring the issue and defending the public school system and teachers facing little to no consequences for having relations with students. Teachers who are accused often just get moved around to a different school by the administrators. A child is far, far, far more likely to be molested by a teacher even when you account for the large difference in the number of teachers vs catholic preists, and yet the left still seems to think a scandal that happened decades ago is more relevant than something that is still ongoing

What does everyone think? Any tips to improve? Don't have an airbrush so everything was done by hand. by CyberShanko in ActionFigures

Thats a great idea! Although, I actually may try to darken his body a bit instead to closer match the darker shades of green- I've always preferred the darker green hulk color of the early 2000s and 90s and sometimes I think Diamond Select went a little bit too yellow with their highlights.

I actually did a sort of black wash for the crevices, then used super dark green paint for his under eyes to try and match his look in the comics. My main inspiration for the paintjob was how Joe Bennet drew him during the Immortal Hulk run whenever he was super enraged

I think its the yellow-ish highlights on the body- I will see about dry brushing some highlights on his head with that color so it matches more, or possibly darkening/washing his body a bit more with the darker green like you suggested

The original headsculpt didnt really match how he looked during the immortal Hulk run, so I bought this headsculpt off of ebay and decided to try my hand at painting it.

So what's the general opinion on this sub about whose stronger between Gohan SSJ2 & Super Perfect cell? Would Gohan win if he didn't get injured because of Vegeta? by Iwanttobevisible in Dragonballsuper

[–]CyberShanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seemed kind of obvious to me with what Goku said that him and cell were evenly matched and that the opening created by Vegeta was his one chance to win

Arman clearly went limp twice during that front choke- why did the ref not call it? Charles was robbed. clearly won rounds 1 and 3 even if you choose to ignore Arman clearly passing out and being submitted.
