I decided to make my own custom Robo Joe figure.
He is a veteran from the Iraq war (like myself) who lived through a very tramatic vehicle explosion. This incident left him with a shattered body but not a shattered spirit. He agreed with the Military to participate in a new program to implant cybernetic parts into his body to test the new parts to help other veterans who have suffered tramatic bodily harm. The end result is the soldier being given a new name and top secret powerful armored fighting suit. He is now known as Robo Joe and continues the fight for the G.I. Joe team defending freedom. Parts used: Citadel paints Iron Man diver suit slightly modified 25th anniversary duke head hair painted in a grey hue |

Sweet custom, I like the paint job, much better than the blue that they used on the IM figure. Looks like a winner.

Interesting concept, and I also like the use of parts...Have you thought about giving his face a basecoat and wash? or even just a wash? It looks more toyish when contrasted against the body (which looks razor sharp with your painting).
Just a thought.. |
