G.I.Joe Classified “PD” Destro recolor

Given social media these days, I was slow to catalog this here, and it showed up on instagram, and facebook first, still yet, I like to put everything I do here.

When I saw this base image, I got to work right away.
In 1997 there was nearly a very odd looking Destro released at TRU, to find out more you can head to yojoe.  The crazy leapoard print caught fans attention, and he was dubbed “Pimp Daddy” Destro. Hasbro caught wind of the fan interest and it even got made officially in 2007, although using the then current construction style. (this image from BBTS.

So with some photoshop wizardary, I turned the most hi res photo of Classified Destro into his more Flamboyaunt self.

Some in progress shots below for those who like that kinda thing.

 

The Jaguar print was added on as a semi transparent layer from a pattern I found for free online and simplified.
