The latest in my DCUC/MOTU line. Due to the amount of excellent Skeletors going round at the moment I decided I would do this Fire armour Skeletor before I do my Standard one. I wanted him to look close to his original colours but with the snazzy flame effect still in place. Here's the recipe:

Recipe

Base = DCUC Black suit superman

Head = Helmet from 200x fire skely with a ghostrider skull grafted in, filled the whole helmet with hot glue to create peg hole.

Lower arms and hands = the lower arms are composed of three different figures (I'd already cut them for another custom I had planned and had cut them too short for this one). Supes arms from the joint with XMC wolvies lower bits, the hands and armour from 200x fire skely.

Shoulders = unfortunately he has two right shoulders but i don't think it detracts, one from the base figure and the other from DCUC Vigilante I used for trapjaw. There was no way I was gonna sacrifice a whole figure for a shoulder.

Loin Cloth = 200x fire skely

Chest and back armour = 200x fire skely

Pauldrons = 200x fire skely held together with a twistie tie and some flames off HML human torch. The whole assembly sits snugly over the shoulders and is removable so it doesn't hamper the articulation.

Lower leg armour = 200x fire skely

Feet = 200x fire skely grafted onto red and blue superman's feet (Had to dye the joints with a Sharpie) and sculpted armour and flames.

Flame effects = HML Human Torch

Swords = "borrowed from my old Mum-ra custom. Made with Baron Zemo hands, figure packaging and hot glue. Paint brushes for the handles and sculpted bits too.

New weapons = 200x skely swords, staff is fire skely head on a standard havok staff stick.
