That's pretty neat. The body reminds me of the guy in the HBO series Rome that Vorenus kills to save Pullo in the gladiator ring. So I guess that means to did a great job making him look like a gladiator. That show had a huge budget and won awards for costume I think. |

This is very cool and something Hasbro should've included in the DVD packs. Well done! |

Nice work on a figure I always wished I'd had as a kid. I think I used He-Man as a stand-in. |

I dig him overall, and I appreciate what a [LASER BLAST] it must have been to get the flesh paint to cover the blue base figure. The only thing that distracts me - and please tell me if it fits the character's design in which case ignore - are the raised lines - mostly on the legs - that were part of the Frost Giant sculpt. |

I kind of like the raised lines. I imagine them to be some sort of ritual scar tattooing or something of that nature. Makes you think about his past. |

yeah, if it's an intentional choice to be like a tribal thing, then I get it. |

Thanks, all. The lines were left alone to pass as scarification marks. The ones on the upper body are not as symmetrical and work better. The ones on the legs I probably should have sanded down. I thought that they'd be more obscured by the layers of paint, but they weren't. I was pleased that I was able to find a use Gammorean Guard feet and Titan AE hands. |

The legs (especially the lower) are too long for my taste, but I like the rest. |

The legs are a bit thin- the base figure isn't human but a Frost Giant, which is most noticeable in the work that the sculptor did in the biceps. I actually bulked up the lats and the forearms, but left the legs alone. After adding the larger Gammorean Guard feet, I should have bulked up the legs a bit, but wasn't really sure where to start, so I left it alone. |
