Took a couple of 2 hour sessions to make, but here's my Baron Ironblood from Snow Job and Tarkin bases
Original figure: BFTB (In the UK this was the leader of the Red Shadows and he became Cobra Commander later) Base figure Snow Job Remove the skirt and then shave off the belt and pouches. Remove the belts and detailings from the upper torso. Use a stanley knife at 90 degrees to scrape the cut areas flat. Trim the inside of the upper torso to allow extra space for the red paint to avoid paint rub on later articulation. Remove legs below knees. The head and boots are from Grand Moff Tarkin. Remove holster and left thigh pouch. Glue the skirt back on. Milliput: - around boot tops, waist (to create a smooth tunic) and forearm sleeves. The helmet is custom made from a pen top. No easy recipe for that. Then paint! |

Very cool!! Grand Moff Tarkin works perfectly for the Baron-I LOVE that helmet too!
I kept mine with Star Wars articulation but I think yours is better for having a 25th body

Thanks. You won't be surprised to learn that I copied your choice of head (actually I was going to copy the whole thing, but I had a spare Snow Job)
