![[Pallantides] This figure was apain to make. First the Marvel Legends Sentry is a little small (it look better in the pics when I bought it), its smaller than the LCBH Conan. Second the skirt of the McFarlane Pallantides figure has a wierd shape so to fit it into the base figure I had to modify it a lot (had to use 2 Pallantides figure and still there is a small gap in the right side of the custom). Nevertheless I kind of like the results, now I have to figure out how to do it in the 1/6 scale.](userimages/customs/15000/14794-1.jpg) Pallantides Conanby carlos1This figure was apain to make.

![[Conan] I ussually do 1 sixth scale figures, but seen all the great renditions of this character in this site I decided to give this scale a try. I tried to get the look of the Frazzetta version of Conan. I used the LCBH Conan as a base gave it a bronze painting and modified the hair a bit to fit the helmet. The loincloth is from a LOTR figure, the belt came off a cheap Gorgoyle figure I had laying around, the sword is the original without the silly parts, the short sword came from a McFarlane Pallantides figure, the severed head is from a spawn figure ant the helmet came from a LOTR Eomer figure. hope you like this version of the Cimerian, any suggestions would be appreciated.](userimages/customs/14500/14412-1.jpg) Conan Conanby carlos1I ussually do 1 sixth scale figures, but seen all the great renditions of this character in this site I decided to give this scale a try.

![[Red Dawn Version 2.0] I had previously submitted a version of this figure but was never really satisfied with the custom. For this version I added a new helmet made out of plastic (from the package the figure came in), two wing from a Mego Thor figure and some pieces from Ignite Roman helmet, The leg bracelet is the belt from an old Spawn figure. I also added new bracelets and a nastier shield, provided from an Ignite Morman figure. I believe this version to be more complete because of the added details. Little things make a big difference.

This is my interpretation of a seductive assassin in the age of Conan. I did not use a particular character in REH mythology, instead I combined a couple of fantasy art paintings and other descriptions to create this figure. Harem girl by day assassin/thief by night, I hope you guys like this figure.
Belt - Ignite figures Roman Centurion combined with Hasbro Darth Vader inner cape. The second belt is from a Mego Thor figure and the sword belt is from an Ignite Viking figure.
Cloak - Hasbro Luke Jedi figure
Boots - Mego Thor figure
Chest - Loose chain and some jewelry I found around the house
The hardest part believe it or not was to sculpt the chest area, the original nude figure had awfull chest.](userimages/customs/6000/5732-1.jpg) Slyveen Conanby carlos1Sometimes death in the Hyborian Age comes in beautiful packages.

![[Valkyrie] I was playing the PC game Rome Total War when my legions were ambushed by amazons in the region of Russia. So I decided to do a figure based on the Amazon warriors that appear in this game. I took a herobuildres nude figure and added a 21st Century Toys Matilda head, I attached Barbie doll hair and added a plastic band to cover the seams. I used a CY Girl extra breast plate to create the chest armor and used cooper wire to attach it. The leg armor are from a Mermit Storm trooper figure, and the shoulder armor is acctually the back helmet from an Iron Man Meco figure. The belt was a combination of a Star Wars Princess Laia belt with an Ignite figure roman skirt. The amazon warriors I encountered in the game had Greek and Roman influences in their armor so I added a Corinthian Helmet, Shield and Spear from an Ignite figure.](userimages/customs/4500/4066-1.jpg) Valkyrie Conanby carlos1I was playing the PC game Rome Total War when my legions were ambushed by amazons in the region of Russia.

I took the look from a combination of reference pics and inspiration from some of the McFarlane figures. I had created the Conan the barbarian custom and modified it to create the more formal version. I covered the hinges with a piece of cotton and covered them with apoxy. Since the figure is bulkier than any other 1:6 figure I had to do a lot of tayloring to fit the clothes. I cut to size and added velcro to the back of the chainmail shirt to fit the figure. The shoulder pieces are modified parts of an Ignite Roman cuirass, I combined the skirt and belt and turned it into one piece, I left a hint of the original loincloth to keep the barbarian spirit (he may be King but he remains a Cimmerian) the helmet was modified to add the horns from a spawn figure. The sword was cortesy of Aneses who has some of the best Conan customs out there thanks Hermano. The sccarab for the sword was made using cardboard glued at the bottom and wraped in](userimages/customs/3500/3070-1.jpg) King Conan Conanby carlos1This is a rendition of the Cimmerian as King.

![[Red Dawn] This is a rendition of a typical barbarian female. I ordered a Cy Girl model figure and was a little disapointed with the body, it looks a little whimpy you want your female barbarian to be able to hold a sword right, so I took the head and switch it into the Herobuilders nude body I had laying around, it has perfect musculature and decent articulation for the female barbarian type. The shoulder piece came from a spawn figure and I added rubber bands to it so it can be removed easily it's not permanently attached to the figure. The sword came from my Ignite collection, the belt is made from the reigns of a spawn horse figure, the boots are from a Mego Thor figure, the bracelets are from a spawn figure and the leather arm guard is made from arts and craft plastic string. I hope you enjoy this figure and I welcome comments and critics alike.](userimages/customs/3500/3069-1.jpg) Red Dawn Conanby carlos1This is a rendition of a typical barbarian female.

Need a dungeon to guard, get the deluxe scary "Big" model, need to do a prank on the town folk rent one of the economy models by the dozen for greater effect. Hey even Lords of Darkness need to pay the heating bills especially nowadays.
Anyway I was working on the main Demoness custom figure for this contest and half way through the project realized I was never going to finish in time, so opted for plan B. The Demoness figure will be posted later it will have humongous wings and light up eyes that's what happens when a project becomes too ambitious and time runs out.
But back to the figure in front of you I had the 21st Century toys figure for years and saw the movie Angel Heart and though the figure kind of looked like the Robert De Niro character in the movie.

![[Gimli's Less Known Brother] This is my custom of a generic Dwarf in the LOTR mythology (I did not find references of dwarfs in the Conan mythology, so I placed it in here instead). For this figure I took the Marvel Legends Grey Hulk sanded the hair and repainted the entire figure. The beard hair came from a spawn figure (this time my loyal Springer Spaniel was spared) I tough about adding hair to the scalp but being bald gave it a certain personality so I left as is. The chainmail suit and leather vest were modified form an Ignite Roman Centurion figure. The Hammer came from the original Marvel Icons Thor I used for the Conan custom. The boots came from an old 21st Century figure. The bracelets are leather straps I had left over from previous customs. The face of the Marvel's Hulk is perfect for a dwarf figure if you can add some additional features such as hair. This figure scale is excellent for the 12" counterparts. As always your suggestions are welcomed.](userimages/customs/2500/2334-1.jpg) Gimli's Less Known Brother Lord of the Ringsby carlos1This is my custom of a generic Dwarf in the LOTR mythology (I did not find references of dwarfs in the Conan mythology, so I placed it in here instead...5 comments | ![[Fafnir of Vanaheim] Fafnir was one of Conan's Free Companions in REH adventures. He was a Vanir that shared numerous adventures with the Cimerian and is features several times in the series. This custom was a bit frustating, first my faithfull Springer Spaniel complained so the source of hair was out of the question. I took a Dog Soldiers head sculpt to use for the figure because the likeness is dead on. Second problem was that the Woverine from Marvel Icons is slightly shorter and less bulky than the Thor Icon figure I used for the Conan custom, so side by side Fafnir is not as mighty as the Cimerian, (I discovered this after the purchase) nevertheless the musculature of these Icon figures matches the theme and posing the figure by itself the efect is nule. After carefully sanding away the head sculpt of Wolverine and painstakingly attaching the Dog Soldier head piece I achieved the result I wanted. The body of the Icons figure was conpletely sanded to removethe grooves that cover the figure.

![[Demon Guardian] This is a freelance version of a demon creature that Conan may or may not have faced during his adventures. This figure is not based in any REH mythology but rather created freely from generic descriptions. As usual the hardes part was finding the base figure that met the required musculature qualifications. The Marvel Icons series Venom privided the best base sculptures and details to create the alternate theme. For this generic demon I borrowed the horns from a Star Wars Tauntaun figure. The hair in the beard was as in my first custom borrowed form my loyal Springer Spaniel who eventually will run out of hair and I will have to find other alternatives. The hair on the back was taken form a cushin seat I found around the house. The chain necklace was part Ogre from LOTR and part spawn figure the loincloth and chin guards were taken from other spawn figures (mainly the viking series provide the most distinguishable parts).

She helped Conan escape in one of his adventures. I took a nude body I found that had more muscle tone and articulation than most other figures and transformed it from scratch. I used bits and pieces from a Star Wars Leia in Chains and from Qeen Amidala from Phantom Menance to create the bracers and decorations. The chains are from a ORk in the Lord of the Rings series. The hardest part was The hair wich I borrowed from a normal Barbie adn cut and shaped it to attach to a 21st Century Villians Jaqueline face. Belt was made from pieces I found in the local hardware store. As with most of my figures every item is removable so in the future I can modify the figure and create other outfits.](userimages/customs/2500/2308-1.jpg) Zenobia Conanby carlos1This is Zenobia a character in REH mythology who eventually became Conan's Queen.

![[Conan] Conan the Barbarian as interpreted in Savage Sword of Conan. I sanded and modified the base Thor figure to create the chest. The hair is real courtesy of my Springer Spaniel (I'll grow back). The belt is custom made using leather and adding the skull base from a Spawn Blood Axe figure. The weapons are burrowed from Ignites figures and the fur loincloth is form a Star Wars Bantha figure. The bracelets and earing are for other Star Wars figures and the necklace is custom made. This is my first custom I hope you enjoy it. I failed to mention that the necklace pieces are made of real shark teeth covered with epoxy to attach to the string.](userimages/customs/2500/2186-1.jpg) Conan Conanby carlos1Conan the Barbarian as interpreted in Savage Sword of Conan.
