Here is a collection of some bashes I've been working on the past few months, they are all set within the Hyborian Universe (Conan The Barbarian). Most of the cultural summaries were taken from the game Age Of Conan.
Cimmerian Clan Shaman
Cimmeria, birthplace of Conan, was an unremittingly somber land. It was home to a people forged by the very harsh conditions of their environment. The Cimmerians were known to be a gloomy people, famed for their deep melancholy but also feared for their great rages. They lived like most barbarian cultures, in small tribes governed by the strongest amongst them. They were a blunt, direct people who respected strength and self-reliance but abhorred weakness and cowardice.
I've rebuilt this bash over my previous barbarian, with new custom fur works and additional bones, teeth & staff to give her a shamanistic feel.
I've dyed her hair a bit more ginger, from the default dark red.
A closer look at the shamanistic staff:
Aquilonian Duelist
Aquilonia would emerge as one of the most powerful of the Hyborian kingdoms, its civilizing influence was felt by most of their barbarian neighbors. Aquilonian fighters were disciplined and tough, often more soldier than warrior. The people valued martial skill and admired any who stood against the nation's many enemies.
I wanted to give this figure a professional soldier feel (like the Conquerors in AoC), with an array of different weapons at her disposal. I used Pain Killer Jane's body and head for this figure, also known as Phicen S23b body.
Her Weapons and Armour were repainted for colour consistency.
Here is how she looks on my display shelf, next to a war horse.
Priestess Of Mitra
Religiously, the worship of Mitra was the semi-official state religion of Aquilonia. While the Aquilonians didn't often become Mages, many of them still chose to tap into the higher powers by following the way of the Priest to later become Priests of Mitra.
This is a direct conversion from the Duelist, I tried to give her a priestly feel as opposed to that of a mage or shaman. Her outfit was inspired by some of Robert E. Howard's illustrations.
A closer look at the face and headdress:

Hope you enjoyed looking as much as I did making them!
