A Scottish warlord with a sense of honor on the battlefield is something we’ve always wanted.
General Destro, warlord of Weapons is figure who we’ve only imagined because no Figure ever put out has really lived up to the Destro Name. Now with that said, Plenty of Destro figures have lived up to the weapons Supplier name. In This version , I wanted to give us The Scottish General who carries his honor on the battlefield , with his ancestors armor, Scottish sgian-dubh, giving him a meancing “your fucked” if you see me in battle look. Blending modern tech and traditional is no easy task, the easiest part being you can overdo it and ruin the Character. I was very Careful to lessen the equipment to give him more personality in what Destro Should look like. Real necklace Material Real string for detached dishonored hands Real armor strap Real string on sgian-dubh Here is General Destro: Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr

Interesting take, for sure! I’m most intrigued by the “dishonored hands.” Is this actual Scottish lore, or a fictional addition on your part? Either way, this ain’t your older brother’s Destro...!

Thanks brother Oz. I’ve read history where similar Scottish punishment was done to certain criminals , but none that say THIS was THE way. Scotland had different punishments for different offenses. But seeing how Destro carries honor into battle, it only makes sense. Plus he is the last boss you want to fuck with if you make it through Iron Grenadier Lines.

Yes, I would agree; he is defined by his honor. Don’t cross the guy who won’t even cross his enemies!
