They look really, really nice… I particularly like the one with the severed head and the blood on the snow… gory!  ;)

More great stuff. Is the first one a weapon swap?

No, that was one of the last Grenadier barbarians released. Mirliton sells him now, but he was hard to find for years. There is another one that EM-4 is supposed to be re-releasing that I have been trying to find, but have only seen one painted example of.

I really like the skin tone of the fourth one down, the slight hint of blue really makes the figure look cold  :)

The silver shields are a little bit strange, but absolutely fabulous painting on the rest of the figures (and it works well for the weapons).

 More cool painted Barbarians.Why so many different bases?

 Are you the same person that did the Jaguar God conversion?

I have absolutely zero of the Copplestone barbarians in my collection, these are convincing me I have made a terrible error in collecting. 

Great work on those, I have never seen snow bases I liked better.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone!

@jimbibbly:  I used to basecoat skin with Reaper Volcanic Brown, it creates that tone you mentioned.

@Captain Blood: Currently working on a Fenryll amazon, painting her as a Stygian from the Hyborian Age. Putting together a serpentman from Blood Moon Miniatures as well.

@manic _miner:  I don't game, and these were painted over a few years - I just go with whatever base I have around that fits the figure. Never thought about it, but that might hurt my Ebay sales and I may need to rethink that! Also, I did 2 Jaguar God conversions, and one Jaguar Goddess - if you are talking about the recent one on CMON I did that using greenstuff and bits on a Bronze Age Miniatures Generic. The older one was converted for me before painting, and also used a Bronze Age Miniatures barbarian as the base (an old OOP one alas). I'll post those up here too.
