Welcome to the forum. PJ looks like he could use to gain more than a little weight.

i know he needs fattening up thats because where i got him from only fed him on fruit and veg,
he has 2 tubs of crickets a week and veg daily and i give him locus wax worms and mill worms every now and then as a treat and a pinky every 6 months and hes not great at catching the live food as he misses them 9 times out of 10,

How many crix are in a tub? After a year & a half, one would think that he would not be so boney. Have you had him to a vet, I'd be having at least a fecal done to check for parasites.

Would you mind giving us the lowdown on your setup, enclosure size, accurate temps, both basking spot & cool side. Do you happen to use night heat or light? Has this been the amount that you have fed him since the day you acquired him? What brand & strength of UVB are you using. Pics of the setup showing lighting location would be an invaluable help. Sorry for all the questions, but if we can get an idea of it's living conditions, we may be able to help you get some weight on him. First we have to rule out husbandry\setup issues & in order to do that, we need accurate answers.
Good Luck

Hello and welcome! PJ is a cutie. I like the pic of the close up of the scales on his back.

I would have to agree with Germ something doesn't look right here, he's very emaciated

that patch on his back also looks questionably fungal

Looks like a shed starting to me 
Must've been a tiny little thing when you picked it up, poor pj. Love the yellows.
Did the vet run a fecal test?

it look like you need to feed your bearded dragon more and give it more greens
