I didn't have a lot of time but ended up starting a few. I put a clear coat over Destro to give his suit a leather look and then repainted his head in shiny chrome leaving the eyes the same color. I didnt like the green eyes at all. This looks way better. Not that cheap silver looking water based paint.
I also did the same to Cobra Commander's mask. Again much better looking. Then I applied a clear coat although a bit more subtle to him and his helmet to bring out more highlights. I will probably go with a much shinier coat on his helmet later to make it stand out.
I did the dreadnok up very cool. He has some chrome features like the skulls on his shin guards and belt buckle along with the shoulder guard. His glasses are redone with black lenses and look much better to me. I will have to post some pics when I have time.
p.s. I wouldn't touch them if I didn't have confidence in my painting ability where I knew they would look improved.
