Gorgeous stuff man! I always end up stuck on your site when I go there! (In a good way, so much to look at!) I love Conan, and your figure is spot on to Buscema's version. I would love to see an alternate head version with his horned helm.

Yeah! All of that is in the works! I want to do all different versions of him and the different cultures of the Hyborian Age! I am so stoked! Thanks for the comments and the inspiration!

Wow! I thought it was one of those DC Classics figure until I read what you used. Very cool.

Does he crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and to hear the lamentation of the women?

He does indeed! He also never prays to Crom. He doesn't have the tounge for it. And no, he doesn't want to live forever.

Thanks Speedle!

Thanks for the comments, Rosedale! The backdrop is just a piece of cotton duck artist canvas with a sort of abstract oil painting on it. Your standard photo backdrop same as you would find in a portrait studio, but on a smaller scale. You can make one yourself or purchase one at a photo supply store.
