Out of all the 12" figures I've created, I have to say without a doubt, Conan is my BEST.
With this figure I really went all out. Real leather and fur, removable accessories, the works!
Conan was made by using the head if the 12" Viking figure from Ignite, which looks just like AH'norld,
and the body of 12" vinyl Wolverine figure from Toy Biz. I started by removing all unwanted detail from
Wolverine's body, then smoothing it out with Magic Sculpt putty. I then added Arnold's head and
sculpted his long hair. After painting the figure, I need to dress him. This was a little harder
then I originally thought. Cutting and gluing leather and fur turned out to be quite a mess. Try explaining
to your wife why you have fur crazy glued to your hands (not fun). The tough part was making sure
that the finial figure was still poseable. Conan is movable at his shoulders,
arms, forearms, chest, waist, legs, mid thigh, knees, and feet.
