Chrome Crimson Guard Custom GI Joe Figure

FrogDNA has made some really great enhancements to the GI Joe 25th Anniversary line with his chrome work and detailed shading with his Custom Crimson Guard figure.  Striving to retain the classic nature of the cartoon, FrogDNA has used his stills to apply chrome and accents in all of the right places.  Let’s read more about how he achieved this look:

For this Crimson Guard I used Palisades’statue and the artwork from the blister as reference to bring to life this classic figure. There’s some airbrushed shading on his uniform and backpack, glossy paints on his helmet, boots and leather parts of his uniform and matt paints where was needed, to enhance the realistic look. You can actually see some reflections on his helmet! The gloss/matt effect is enhanced by several layers of clear coat, glossy and opaque as well.

FrogDNA has this figure and others so be sure to check out his auctions over at eBay!
