I still haven't seen the Hellboy stuff, other than the big red monkey himself....

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JimbowensDisturbia/

I recognise your handle from CMON - where I have seen you comment on Jim's stuff before - you'd be assured of a warm welcome!

Yeah! I seem like a one man fan club of Jim's over on CMoN. Too bad, I think they are missing out on some excellent stuff.

I believe I am already a member of that Yahoo group...although I haven't participated much. Thanks for the tips though!

Post by: Graven Steve on 25 July 2006, 12:19:28 PM: Supervike/Rich (or anyone else for that matter!) - if you are interested in the Hellboy stuff, I only have 3 complete sets left, as well as some extras of some of the characters - just email me!

Supervike - as far as I'm concerned you've done your share of the work promoting us on CMON - participation on the yahoo group isn't mandatory, but always welcome

Post by: supervike on 01 August 2006, 05:33:03 PM: Ok...I ordered me a bunch of Bowen's goodies....I wish I could've gotten more, but I think the wife would have at me! Maybe next time...

I will hold my breath until they arrive....

:mrgreen:

Post by: supervike on 23 August 2006, 03:38:12 AM: Just to update this!

I recieved the Bowen Goodies.

If you haven't ordered any of these minis...DO! They are wonderful. And the slightly larger scale makes them painter friendly....

Which figure is the one to the left of Hellboy in the pic there?

Post by: Graven Steve on 23 August 2006, 08:32:03 AM: That's Johann Kraus - another of Hellboy's fellow BPRD agents. I still ahve a couple of him left if you are interested

Post by: dominic on 27 August 2006, 10:02:53 PM: Nice - where can I get Jim Bowen's stuff and will they match with Pulp Figures and Copplestone?
Title: Jim Bowen Releases [Juli]
Post by: KeyanSark on 27 August 2006, 10:20:57 PM: I think they are differente scales... ProjectX minis are 1:48 while PF a Copplestone are 28 mm (aprox: 1:56)
Title: Jim Bowen Releases [Juli]
Post by: Operator5 on 27 August 2006, 10:33:52 PM: Yup. The Project X and Jim Bowen stuff is all 1/48. Pulp Figures, Copplestone, and most other pulp style-figures are 28mm.

They won't mix together well. Though I am sure some of the "creatures" from the two lines could be put into a 28mmm game as a BFM (Big Friggin' Monster!)

:)

Post by: scoobiestu on 21 March 2008, 12:00:23 AM: sorry for the thread necromancy, but are these still for sale.
Title: Jim Bowen Releases [Juli]
Post by: Captain Blood on 21 March 2008, 09:51:00 AM: Yeah, but as has been remarked here before, it's very difficult to know what's for sale because the website is never remotely up to date.

I think Jim Bowen's recent work for Kingmaker Miniatures' Hussite Wars range is really top class. Lovely figures. I'd say they're as good as the Perry medievals.

I'm not quite sure why his own Graven figures are in that more 'cartoony' style. Other than it's a deliberate look that Jim favours, I suppose.

I think his imagination and scope of work is fantastic. I'm just not completely sold on the style. :(
