BLACK POWER RANGER

This is the item requested by my returning customer that usually orders Pokemon.  He has decided to have me work on a few self-designed adaptations of Pokemon and other popular characters.  This is an adaptation of a drawing of a Power Ranger that he dreamed up.  This pattern was easier than most patterns I have done for him because all I had to do was transformer a male doll pattern that I have already done before. This is Black Power Ranger.  My Etsy customer is having me make him a series of Power Rangers probably in conjunction with the Power Ranger movie coming out on March 24th.
