Volbeat - The Hangman figure part ideas

Posted in Custom Workstation

Hey, so recently I've really gotten into Volbeat's "The Hangman's Body Count" and I love the artwork for it (shown here: ) so much so that I wanted to make a figure of this ominous character. I was wondering if anyone knew of any figures that would make for a great base with a similar cloak, and one that would have a hat in that shape. Facial appearance and colors don't matter since I'm gonna try my best to repaint it to look like the picture, and my preference for scale is 6"-7", but I'm up for trying it in 5" scale too, just nothing smaller than McFarlane's Walking Dead figures or bigger than NECA's Predators. I'd also like this figure to be decently articulated, but I can probably work that in on a figure with a good cloak using some parts I have around.
