This guy is a bit of a mash up...he's based on the Spy Troops design IG v4 Walmart exclusive Arctic Iron Grenadier
Iron Grenadier (v4) G.I. Joe Action Figure - YoJoe Archive But...I've always hated that general uniform with the big shoulder armor from that era...so I decided to take a whack at doing that design on a classic style IG. It was done on a whim, but actually came out better than I imagined. I ditched the shoulder armor and had I been more observant I would have left the hands black like the original but I painted them white by accident and decided to keep that color for the hands. I retained the IG belt and sword from the v1 as well as the sash. The camo was ALLLLLL by hand and some of the HARDEST painting I have ever done, it came out surprisingly well.

Although I didn't know this figure existed prior to your post I have to say I love your custom.
