Its been a while since I've done an actual Joe custom. I really wanted to revamp a few of my favs. I started with my favorite Joe...Shipwreck. I did a hybrid of my favorite looks from comics, tv, figures etc. Let me know how he looks.

That's pretty cool... and it makes me kind of sad... kinda like a homeless vet version of Shipwreck. Makes me want to give him a dollar.

You know I love this one man. My first thought veers more towards smuggler though, with this look, which I think is cool.

Looks very nice but I second the homeless vibe, looks like he'd shank you if you came close to his can of beans.

Thanks so much. I was really going for smuggler. I kind of thought if I rebooted Ship, he'd be and ex-Navy seal/merchant sailor turned smuggler/hired boat. I envisioned a universe (similar to Renegades and the new film) in which the Joe’s are fugitives on the run. They need allies and need to move ammunitions and some heavy equipment. They are told of a “Joe-friendly” captain named Hector Delgado who can move any cargo...without attracting "unwanted attention.” They meet him at a shady tavern near a small port and ask the bar tender where they can find this "Shipwreck.” When they are directed to a dimly lit table near the exit, they can't believe THIS is the guy. There’s no way this scruffy pirate is the famous gun runner they were told about. For crying out loud he's got a bottle of Jack in one hand and parrot in the other (one whom he whispers to frequently at that)! But much like Han Solo in Star Wars, Shipwreck delivers in every way. He's a charismatic, cocky, foul-mouthed scoundrel, but he is the best smuggler there is. He becomes more to the cause than a one way ticket boat and is a valued and trusted ally of the Joe’s.
