The big question is if this will go up for pre order this weekend.

1. ARH and all involved put a lot of work into this
2. Accomodations had to be made to make it reasonable size for shipping and display as well as costs and preferences of the Frazettas
3. Complaints at this stage is pointless, the sculpt is finished and is going into production.
4. If you REALLY want a different base he will sculpt you one if you are willing to pay for it.

I don't have a problem with it.

RE the base, both CS Moore and ARH altered the base for cost reasons. ARH made it steeper and less full. CS Moore cut it off at below the knees on the girl. I love both of them and will be glad to have both (actually 3 with both versions of CS Moore.

Much ado and drama about nothing.

Can you make it smaller? Yes. Can you make it another color? Yes. Different font? Yes. Can I add a picture frame? Yes. Ok thanks goodbye(never see them again). Its usually a good 15/20 minute process and it happens ALOT at the shows. Its like they just enjoy using you to feel important. Then theres the ones that enjoy pointing out errors in your work with no intention of buying. My favorite is when they try to correct my grammar and its a movie/book quote lol. Then you ask someone politely not to photograph your work and they cant help but comback with, I was about to buy a bajillion dollars worth but not now... Lame.

Arahom may have come off a bit strongly but a little understanding goes both ways... Just sayin

I think you guys need some tea and biscuits, they really do relieve a lot of tension. Yorkshire tea and rich tea biscuits are best.

Now when's the next video?

WolfBrother are you considering getting a Paul Moore paint up on yours?

wolf-brother · 08-02-2015, 08:47 PM

That would be fantastic and about 3K.

I'll probabbly stick with the factory paint for this one D.

New pics up on facebook (8-3-15) of the barbarian. Ehren you and ARH should be so proud of this piece. Congrats on a beautiful piece of art.

pics please

jlebrun208 · 08-03-2015, 05:20 PM

These were released by ARH on 8-3-2015. I blocked out the nipple (not sure if allowed here).

I like that the top of his boots are more visible now. Good change, IMO.

EDIT: Actually going back and looking at the old pics, it seems they just reduced that "pillar" effect that was going on with his feet before. Looks better either way.

Looks like they also imbeded the ribs more into the earth...I also think he made to much blood run from the sword...must own.
