    Conan the Barbarian.

    Comments and votes appreciated. http://www.coolminiornot.com/281986 This is my conversion of Hasslefree's Wolf character. Wolf was inspired by Arnold's Conan, so I figure this completes the circle. I sculpted on more hair, the headband, wristguards, and filed the sword down. I actually...

    Breaking free of your selected 'Genre'

    I've probably said something similar before, but I heartily recommend to painters to try and paint something out of their comfort zone from time to time. Especially if you feel you have kind of a painters block. So, if you do nothing but Fantasy minis, try something modern. Nothing but...

    Replacing/ Converting a sword on a mini.

    I'm working on this lovely model: (klutes paintjob) Anyhow, I think that cricket bat sized sword kinda ruins the model for me, so I'd either like to carve it down to make it a bit more 'realistic' or replace it altogether. What material would I use? How do I do it? Pointers/links to...

    The Best of... Nominate your favorite.

    Ok, here's my idea. Just for fun, how about I come up with a new thread on a semi-regular basis. Each time, we discuss 'nominiations' for the best sculpt of a certain type of miniature. For instance, we could say "BEST ORC". Then for a week or so, we take the nominations (by users...

    Your miniature preference, how do you get it?

    Something I've noticed about myself in the last few years.... Whatever I seem to be 'into' at the moment for entertainment is now determining my miniatures interests. For instance...Played a bunch of Red Dead Redemption on XBOX, now I've gotten into several cowboy minis (never interested me...

    Conan in 28mm

    With this Conan talk, I'm thinking I'd like to paint me up a Cimmerian... Anyone know a good looking Conan-esque mini in 28 (ish) mm? I really dislike the Reaper's 80s style Marc Singer type models, I want more of a brutal warrior, less a reject from a Man O War heavy metal gig. Like this...

    The Royal Wedding.

    Maybe it's because I'm American, but I don't 'get' the excitment of all this. What am I missing? Plus, and not to offend any of our British friends....who foots the bill for all this? Why are Royalty tolerated at all? It seems very odd.
