1:6 CONAN custom - einordmaine's DESTROYER

[SpaceGladiator]

Pretty pleased with how this guy turned out - thought I'd post - as well as enter him into Toy Anxiety's Random Drawing Contest July 2016... There are many like it, but this one is mine:










Most details on the build on my Blog (need to keep waffle down and info updated)

Thats a really nice conan. Came out very well.

that's so great that i would buy it right now if it was a stock figure for sell. and i'm not even a fan of Conan. deserves many rep points.

Hey B,

Great job. I know you're on top of most things, but just in case this escaped your keen eye, Chronicle and ACI are producing a totally accurate Arnold body which they plan on selling independently of their licensed Conan full figures. No need to bash anymore bodies. I do like the look of the Matrix upper torso you used, but Kaustic went a little overboard with the definition in the legs.

Yea I think it looks great. Wish Hot Toys would release that body carded, at least the part that is Hot Toys.

Thanks, R!

A couple of guys did mention the ACi release... including the guy who wanted this build-up. Future release appears to be from the Barbarian film & he looks totally warpainted too - will everybody start to put flesh colour OVER the warpaint??? Sounds risky to me - but in the pursuit of a perfect figure there's no end to lengths we go to.

An old argument this, hand-finished just how YOU see it VERSUS mass-produced figure - we'll see how it goes on release of their Conan, I suppose... Me, I'm looking forward to their RAGNAR!!!

Agreed! Love the blank canvas TTMs in blisters that are becoming harder to get nowadays. I don't think they're as keen on us customisers using their bodies as they were waaaay back at the start of their empire building tho.

Umm thanks for that adjust... Must be a US thing - me, I don't recognise him - is he a relative of urs?

They will be releasing the body as standard flesh colour of course. Only the warpaint Conan will have a warpaint body. Individually sold bodies will be normal colour

As for who the funny looking picture is that's Conan O'brien. Talk show host. His name is Conan so his face is always being photoshopped onto Arnies body hahaha classic.

Your figure looks fantastic btw. Nice job

 

[SpaceGladiator]

You guys have seen these already?

ACi's

 

[Space Gladiator]

Hello there, Ray - how do they turn out - Chronicle's & ACI's...?

These are basically in limbo at this point. Chronicle and ACI won't be working together after all. Last word was CC was looking for the "right" company to produce these. I think they will surface eventually. They are finally getting their JP/JW figures out this year.

Looks Great!!

this looks awesome, did you custom make the head band? It looks like its not part of the sculpt.
