Starting a Hyborian Age project
« on: August 10, 2020, 06:46:04 AM »
I'm gathering ideas to start a Hyborian Age skirmish wargame.  It took me a while to finally settle on a female princess figure that I like; however, I stumbled across this picture

and now I need to find some 28mm figures to match the ones Conan is fighting.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks in advance,

Justin Buck

Thank you.  You just reminded me that I need to takes some photos of my completed stuff.  I'll take a look at Redbox games.  I have a feeling that they will have to be plastic kitbashed, which is fine with me, but my green stuff skills need major improvement.

Bronze Age Miniatures has quite a few miniatures that fit the style of that painting.

Naked Celts/Gauls as a base with head swaps?  Just a thought.   ???

Mirliton Miniatures.

Barbarians


Could even use Half-Orcs, though they have some body armour they are fantastic figures.
Thief, Reaver, Slayer.
