Tars Tarkas

[Laughing Ferret]

Tars Tarkas, one of my favorite characters from the Barsoom novels...

Very nice! Is that the new TinMan version?

[Laughing Ferret]

Yes, he's from Tin Man Miniatures.. I was very pleased with the sculpt.  I'm tempted to get some of the great apes too.

I painted this as a present for my Dad, who grew up reading Edgar Rice Burroughs and gave me his old Bantam & Ace paperback collection when I was a kid, which of course I devoured.  That's when I fell in love with Frazetta's artwork too. TinMan does a good job capturing this feel.

Great looking model and great paintwork... I never read those novels myself but it might be that I should try some one day.

Very nice. Great paint job on a lovely mini.
