If you are sculpting a new barbarian you must do a German version!

They toned down the box-cover art-violence with a replacement smile!!

What is this? Is it the original sketch for the cover painting?

And yeah, I couldn't help but noticing they all face away from the monsters. Looks like everybody is posing for a school photo! :lol:

Glad to see the latest installment. Suscribed in hopes of getting all four Ampersand originals. Maybe posting at Old Scratch and on Boardgamegeek will up the blog count.

Those are some bright colors used on them. Still really like how the dwarf looks. Lets hope he Amp gets 50 people following to oblige him to make the barb.
