Looks Sharp. Mind telling me how you achieved that skin tone?

It's been a few months but from what I can remember, I've mixed two paints : skin-tone + tan from Revell Acrylics.

Agree with KoolMisfit, your custom is very comic accurate.

Thanks! The comic-book-look was totally what I was aiming.

That Conan is just great- I've seen the same basic recipie used for Ka Zar (which works nicely too!) but this is really striking.
One minor suggestionL give him a light misting of Dullcoat and the custom will look much cooler without that plastic shine.
Really, it's worth useing on non-custom figures too- really improves the overall look.

Love this Conan custom. Dig the use of champagne capsule to create the shield.

Thanks! Since I've begun customizing, I always have a second thought before throwing small stuff because I'm wondering if it could be any use in a custom... Most of the time, though, the stuff I keep lies in a small box with no real use found... So, I'm quite happy this capsule worked as an antic shield!
