why no Richard Ansell?

Is this guy somehow akin to Bryan Ansell?  :D

Todd's other work includes War Gods of AEgyptus Asar spears and hand weapon units, Basti (males) Khemru (rams) the animals, Lots of character models, some Heru (Horus) and all the Spartan stuff for olympus.

He has also done several pieces for reaper and has just done some Pirates for Warmachine, as seen on their home page with previews.

He also did these early on, including the 'not' Lara Croft


I admit I voted for Copplestone though as I think he's most experienced in the 'pulp' style, but I think that they can all pull it off in varying degrees.
It's not cheating if your stupid.

They are all very good choices, but I voted for Josef.Only because I want him to do more minis, he's been absent for far to long.  :mrgreen:

a really great idea but it's very very expensive one too :)

Well Another Idea in the same way : One fig and one sculptor per year ;)

Copplestone sounds good too me, but My vote went to Bob Murch. He is after all the daddy of pulp  :lol:

Tough choice, but I chosed Mike Owen. I also really like Copplestone, but  Mike made so many great Figures lately, that i had to chose him...

I know we are pretty far with our poll, but the people from wyrd miniatures
do a pretty cool job:







The sculpture is Edgar Ramos - he might be a little bit cheaper than the
established ones.

The Wyrd sculpts are very pretty but a bit too rackham-confrontation-like. I think we need a classical gaming mini, easy to paint and not too strange :)

I´d certainly prefer an Owens/Copplestone-style sculpt, that´ll blend in far easier with the popular Pulp ranges than that pesky Frenchie stuff.

I'm a bit surprised not seeing Kevin White of Hasslefree on the list. Although he has a slight tilt towards the future/zombie setting I am sure he coul and would make an exquisite forum miniature.

My vote has to go to Mark Copplestone.  After all, he did name the period.  However, the bulk of my Pulp figures come from Bob Murch.  I would not have Pulp Armies with them.

I think the ides was  to find a scultor who has done miniatures for pulp gaming with lots of practice behind him/her.

I think Kev White is a great sculptor but I woudln't have wanted to see him do the mini. I think his style doesn't fit. Copplestone, Owens and Murch were the best choices I think.

We'll wait and see what the final model looks like.
