Had this in mind ever since I saw the head cast offered by TofuJesse (thanks!) and the Retaliation wave 2 Roadblock. (And yes, I can now say I overpaid for a figure just to use for a custom.) I think I have a way to make a chest-bared-high-collar version, but that will have to wait until the regular release of the base figure. For this, I wanted one that had more of a practical look and would fit better with my 30th Baroness.
I thought about trying to find sleeved forearms, or coming up with some sculpting to give him longer gloves and wrist attachments, but this suits me fine. I may yet try to attach wrist-firing rockets in some way to be like Resolute Flint's forearm thingy. I used a leg holster from the standard 30th figures, but decided on a larger pistol and cut off a scope and put it in the slot on the front. The collar on the vest is not original to the figure, I cut it off from a POC Beachhead vest. The weapon held on his back is original to the Roadblock figure--I like to think it's a stun baton that Destro can use if someone tries something underhanded during a deal. I'm not sure how well it stands out in the pics, but his uni is very dark gray, with all other straps and gear black (or red). The sling on the rifle is my first real attempt to make something more complex and is fully adjustable. Parts: - head: MU Drax (cast head by TofuJesse) - body: Retaliation Battle Kata Roadblock - rifle: 30th Lifeline

I've got a little work to make the necklace sit more naturally, and I'd like to come up with a harness part to go over his shoulder.
Destro and Baroness

Nice job. The red detail on the collar really sells it. Great update!

Nice work on that--I didn't see your Destro before. Different bodies, but same overall look.
