I was going to save him for last but here is my newest repaint.
I gave him a very light handed '"repaint" with pastels and a bit of paint for his eyes and lips. Unlike the female figures I repaint I did not give him a gloss on his eyes or lips. When I removed his original paint I used acetone I burned his lip a bit because I wasn't quick enough with the water. So be careful when trying this one yourself. It might be easiest to just coat him with MSC, air brush a new layer of flesh tone than trying to remove his current paint job. But they really globbed the paint on his eyes and he does have a fantastic head sculpt so if that is important to you its best to remove his paint. Hope you enjoy!

Well done, that's almost too lifelike.

That is incredible! You need to give specifics on how you achieved that look, the improvement is like night and day.

I have said it before and I still believe this sculpt makes him look like he has chubby cheeks and an oversized head and no amount of repainting will help it no matter how good the paint job is.

I'll see what I can do I don't have another Joe so I'll have to use another figure. @DaBooma As for paints I didn't use much except for on his eyes and lips. just golden acrylics and Vallejo model color. The shading on his face was done with soft pastels brushed on with short small brush. Basically I just added natural shadows to his face.
