Indeed, very nice. An excellent addition I would say. And as for the model being a bit on the small side.

Puny civilized men are even smaller than Cimmerian women!

I’ll laugh for Conan, because he cannot. Ha!

Well, moving back off the English Civil War for a moment...  lol

I've also been pushing on with my 15mm Copplestone Hyborian project...

A couple more Cimmerians, together with a couple of Picts from the recent Pictish characters pack, and one of the mounted Northlander chieftains...






I've also added some primeval wildlife to the Pictish Wilderness... They will certainly make the game more interesting  >:D

First up, woolly mammoths from the excellent Acheson Creations, who do a small but perfectly formed 15mm prehistoric range... Shipped uber fast, inexpensively, and with a delightful helping of friendly New World charm from the USA. Thank you Craig :)



Interestingly, I don't really recall too many woolly mammoths in Howard's stories when I read them, like 40 years ago. But the Conan tribute fan art is full of pics of the raven haired Cimmerian warlord riding woolly mammoths, so who am I to argue...




Sabre-tooth cats definitely ARE in the stories - terrifying denizens of the deep wilds of Pictish Wilderness in 'Beyond The Black River...' Again, Acheson Creations...





Next up, terror birds! This magnificent pair of specimens are 'Gandowana' from Crom's Anvil. Once again, not sure they're really 'canon', but they look the part.







And finally, some woolly rhinoceroses. Again, Acheson Creations.








The herd...




The mammalian herd with interlopers... Do you think they'll be noticed, being so inconspicuous  lol

Some cracking beasties, well and truly tarted to perfection!
 :-* :-*

I feel I need a couple of those terror birds for Palaeo Diet* now.
 :D

*Ya know, that game that you still have not played?
Gonna have to sort that out as soon as we are all allowed out to play again.
 ;)

BTW: do you want a set of Noif to add to your herd?

They should work pretty well in 15mm.

Wicked paintjob, could his smaller stature be due to being on a lower base?
If you put his feet at the same level of the female:



But also this>>>


Puny civilized men are even smaller than Cimmerian women!


However, this topic is amazeballs good.
I will be back later to drool some more!!

Those terror birds might just be the cutest things you've ever painted. Prove me wrong ;)
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.
