The Mythic Legions action figure customs of Jeremy Girard

The Man in Black

After seeing the trailer for "The Dark Tower", I was inspired to create my Mythic Legions Gunslinger custom. As soon as I was done with that figure, I knew that he needed an enemy to pursue across the desert. I knew I had to create my own Man in Black.Like my Gunslinger, this figure is a tribute to the character created by Stephen King in his "Dark Tower" series, but with a twist to make it work for in my Mythic Legions collection. 

In addition to my wizard's "normal" guise, I also wanted him to have an alternate head that shows his true, demonic form. You can read this character's bio on my Instagram page.

This custom's base is a Baron Volligar body. I simply painted the chest and loin piece black to cover up the purple markings on the original figure. His sword is from a Warcraft Lich King figure.

For the figure's "normal" look, I used a head from Jim Pansen Creations. The demonic head is from a Masters of the Universe Goatman figure. I removed the normal horns from that figure's head and drilled out a pair of holes so that the large black horns would fit. Truthfully, it is very difficult to get the horns inserted into the head and then place the head on the figure's neck peg (because the peg pushes out the horns), but as an alternate look, it works fine for my needs.
