The Savage Sword of Conan: First in series
Hey Folks!
I'm really excited about my new series of custom figures of which this is the first. I am working on a series of custom figures based on Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian, specifically inspired by John Buscema's magazine work, but also inspired by other sources such as the work of Frank Frazetta, my own imagination, and my own interpretations of the descriptions taken directly form Howard's writings.
First up is the man himself, Conan the Barbarian. Decked out in his loin clothe, arm band, bucanneer boots and sword taken directly from John Buscema's work on "Savage Sword of Conan" from the 1970's. The recipe is as follows:
Head: MU Punisher
Body: MU Warpath
Hair: Movie Baroness and sculpt
Belt: MU Namor
Sword and sheathe: Cobra Commander
I thoroughly enjoyed this guy and am looking forward to presenting my current wips: Frost Giant, Turanian soldier, Pictish warrior, Vanir warrior, Hyrkanian archer..... and more! Thanks for looking and as always comments are appreciated!
