Hey Everyone, here's a Cimmerian barbarian pressed into the gladiator-slave pits of Aquialonia. With his natural ferocity and fighting skills, he's made short work of his opponents and plots for the day he will escape & taste freedom again!

I'd actually been working on this base body for weeks intending to use it for a different character. When I realized that I couldn't finish in time for the deadline, I took inspiration from another entry here and switched it to a barbarian gladiator since I could do a costume for it with the hour I had left.

This figure is all about THE BOD. While the 1:12-scale (6-inch) world is overflowing with extremely muscular yet aesthetic super-articulated bodies, the 1:6 (12-inch) world unfortunately is not. Since no 12" bodies had the look I wanted, I had to create it.

BODY: DCDeluxe Dr Manhattan base + Marvel Icons upper arms + ACE waist (to shorten) + Hot Toys ankles -- All heavily sculpted over with nipples, neck & trap muscles, all new veiny muscular forearms (dat vascularity), face mods, etc. Repainted head to toe.
HEAD: Dr Manhattan with new sculpting & repaint
HANDS: Enterbay Dennis Rodman, fists were turned into gripping hands, repainted
CLOTHES: Loose parts bin gear & some scrap cloth

Thanks for looking! Sorry if it's a little messy. Like I said, the outfit & photos came together in an hour! One day I will show you what the original figure was supposed to be!
