I used fine-point Dremel grinding bits to remove most of the beard and followed up with extra-fine sandpaper and small hand files. It's not perfect; up close (which doesn't show well in the pic) he looks a little "scarred" around the mouth from the goatee removal (I'm working that into the character bio.) I covered up the worst of it with a light layer of paint that blended in surprisingly well.
I had originally planned to use a ST/VvV Grunt head, which I spent time hollowing out to fit--only to find out it's a hair too small! The result would have been a pin-headed Rock Steady.
Since I hopefully will be getting 5 Major Barrages from HTS, I will be attempting to replicate what you've done. For my Backbreaker idea I hope to add longer hair (like Test had) and then put a black do-rag on him.
I'll let you know.
