Custom action figure and other projects

Comic Style Conan & Red Sonja

​Crom!  Finally posting pics of 2 figures I've been working on for a while.  

Glad to have finished my custom Red Sonja figure.  As I had said previously, I had picked up the Phicen Red Sonja figure for the few things I wanted from the set, mainly the head, body, boots, and sword.  You can check out the previous post where I get into everything that was wrong with the original boxed figure, and everything I rebuilt.  

Since the last round of pictures, I've also rebuilt the battle-ax, added fur to the boots, and made a new cloak from scratch.  Way happier with the end result.
​I've been wanting to do a custom Conan figure for so long.  There have been some great 1/6 accessory sets based on the 1982 Arnold Schwarzenegger film (which I wholeheartedly love) but I've always really loved the comics.  Savage Sword of Conan was my 1st real introduction to the character, and I devoured any of the magazine sized issues that I could get my hands on, long before I ever read any of Robert Howard's original stories.  For the last 10 years or so Dark Horse has been absolutely KILLING it since they got the rights to the character, and it's probably my favorite portrayal of Conan yet.

So, I've always thought that when I did do a Conan figure, it'd be much more based on the comic style.  Plus, that gave me a lot more room to do my take on the character, than try to match up to any movie accuracy.  As soon as Phicen released the M34 body, I knew it was time to get to work.

I had posted a few photos on instagram, but have since gone back and redid the hair, since it was just looking too big and voluminous.  I think the final result is exactly what I was going for.
And of course, I had to get a few photos together.  I plan to take a bunch more of them, as I get the chance.
