Cool My first Custom Mcfarlane

I made my own decals for this one. When I saw steel town toughs mcfarlane's of his high schoolers, I had to make one of myself. Last night before I went to bed I asked my little brother if I could buy his LeBron James figure. He asked how much and I said $20, he said yes, so I lowered to $15, he said yes, but no lower. I bought it, then I Pulled it out today, and worked the whole day on it since it's Easter Vacation. Here I am, it's my first so it's not meant to look as good as Steel Town Tough's. I couldn't hit the color of dirty blonde hair. This is also in my school's high school uniforms and I used 23 because of my number and the platform had 23 cause of LeBron.
Please tell me what I can improve on and what you think of this.
Thanks,
Taylor
(I also don't wear a leg sleave in real life, but I thought it looked cool and I wanted to use my apoxy sculpt.)

I've never painted McFarlane figures so I can't offer any tips, only praise...

It's A Helluva Good Start

Default pretty sweet

I paint some mcfarlanes... yours looks pretty sweet! one thing i do to help with numbers is to use a fine point sharpie of the same color just to touch up the edges and get a nice sharp line.
