I managed to put a good one together not too long ago ... Try this:

Black waist/Brown Legs
Black or Brown Torso
Flat Plate Armor - the kind that came with the Yellow Castle - without
any decals, of course.
head with reddish-brown beard and stubble printing - the red looks
*very* nordic!
Dark Gray or Black Helmet - the kind with the flare and nose-guard
A gray hatchet
One of the Dark Gray Round 2x2 shields that came with the old castle
sets

Hope this helps!
