This was my first custom, so I figured I should put my best foot forward. I've wanted to do a Deadpool figure for a long time, and I've also always wondered what the Merc with a Mouth would look like if someone dropped him into a real-world setting, as a combat-trained mercenary. So I went with a grittier, more realistic approach, but I’m very pleased with how it turned out.

I’ll start with the bare recipe;
BODY
• Head (minus goggles), body, feet/boots, outfit —Sideshow Collectibles 12 inch G.I. Joe Cobra Trooper
• Hands/wrist guards—Sideshow Collectibles 12 inch G.I. Joe Cobra Viper
ACCESSORIES
• Body armor
• Scarf
• Harness set
• Knee pads
• Utility belt
• Backpack
• Beretta 92F, Glock 17, Walther P38 pistols
• Ak-47 w/undermount, tac scope, folding stock, dual magazines, spare mags x7
• Scar-H w/ silencer, hybrid scope, spare mags x6
• Katana
• Bayonet
• Hunting knife
• 2 Flashbang grenades, 2 Frag grenades
• SAM-7 bazooka
• Radio
• Canteen
• Timed explosive
• Drop-down leg holster for Beretta
• 6 sets of hands

I started with the Cobra trooper body, painted the head red and dyed the outfit red (from original navy blue). I used acrylic paint, bleach and tulip red fabric dye (whole outfit process took about 20 hours). I also took some accessories from said figure (utility belt, knee pads, boots, Ak, Glock, bayonet). Then I gathered the desired parts from the Viper figure (hands and wrist guards, scarf, harnesses, backpack, scar rifle, hunting knife, grenades, patches, spare hands). I hand made the Deadpool insignia out of Velcro patches (3 layers, cut, shaped and glued on), and then glued it to the armor. The armor itself was a random piece from the bin, as was the bazooka, katana, radio, goggles, and bomb. I glued the goggles to the painted head, and then assembled the rest. Made the 'middle finger' hand from a pre-formed fist and sculpting clay. That’s it!
