conan the barbarian

[Mortimer]

Hello Friends! It,s me again. I can at least show one of my favourites miniatures made two months ago. "Conan The barbarian" Our cimmerian fellow is at this moment participating at "Torrent Show" or "AMT" in Spain, masterly painted (in my opinion) by Jose Manuel Palomares.

It based on a well known ilustration of John Buscema, sadly dead some years ago. What a great disgrace!
I,ve been reading conan comics and marvel in general since a was a child, and, ended, I,ve enjoied the sculptig like a kid.
It will be in July when it wil arrive at shops. I hope you like!

Mortimer,

Wow! I really did not know that you had done many of the figures from Andrea. There are several in your gallery that I have bought and a few that I am planning on buying! I like the Star War figures, will they be available as well?

PS Please keep posting your work.

An excellent sculpture! I'm so glad to see that you have done the classic comic version and not the movie version. This IS Conan.

 

[Rob Brown]

that is awesome, I love it. Can you tell us who is releasing the kit and what scale is it in? I will be buying it for certain.

FAN-tastic!! A superb piece of good 'ol comic art brought to life.

Two questions: What scale is it? (I assume 54mm), and will it be comercially available?

 

[Mortimer]

The scale is 1/30, more or less 54 mm. Well, in this case I think the barbarian seems to be a little taller.
All who want to get it will be able to do it in July in Andrea Miniatures.
Thank you for your replies.

Sorry about buying star wars miniatures, it was a comision work for "Planeta editions" and they only were distributed in Spain.

Bye planets!!

Hi Alfonso
It's good to see who was behind the sculpting of some of Andrea's figures as Andrea is about the only company that doesn't state who sculpted the figure on the box.
Great work on Conan
