I have a gripe about the character designs. Mostly it's due to me having a raging fan-boner for Yoshitaki Amano's artwork, but the one that specifically grinds my gears is Farangese, who in the original OVA's looked like a badass Paladin, but in the 2015 series just looks like ridiculous cheesecake.

Of course Arnie didn't wear armor in the movie; he was a professional body builder and the whole point was to show off his physique. Same with the Conan art by Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell...both were body builders in their free time and wanted to showcase the human body. In the actual Conan stories, he wore armor every chance he got. Anyway, armored up paladin Farangis just plain looks cooler than stupid battle bikini Farangis.
