Recipe:
Ver. 1 was a slight remake of General Traag. His body was replaced and his hands were modified - I used real stones for this. Then I removed the wide chin, but I tried not to touch the rest of his face. The nose is also made of stone.
As a weapon, I used a flamethrower, which Granitor was armed with in the NES video game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2.
Some time later, I examined the figure again and was dissatisfied with my work:
1) there was too much similarity with the Traag.
2) my Granitor turned out to be the same height as Traag (because the same basic figure was used), but in fact he is significantly higher.

I went back to work. I took the legs from the figure of some robot soldier and glued them with stones. Now Granitor has become taller and less like his commander. But I haven't watched the TMNT series for a long time and didn't notice that lt. Granitor had not the same badge on his chest as the general, but a medal instead. This turned out to be ver.2 in 2009.

Thanks, man! This one was a hard one. I had remade him 4 times before I was satisfied with the result. Have you seen the final version? He is broad in the shoulders and more more granite

Maybe I need to do something else to alter his face? Maybe narrow it down even more?
It's not very noticeable, but I not only peeled off his chin, but tried to narrow his jaw.
