CONAN OF THE MONTH MARCH 2015

A somewhat irregular feature, but here we are still in the desert with an offering from Nick Lund's Chronicle Range which appeared in the early 1980's.


By the way, does anyone know why random text on this blog keeps showing as pale grey and so unreadable? I have all the settings correct, but each time I look at the blog a different piece of text has faded out? Most annoying.....I blame Thoth-Amon.

TEMPLE GUARDS

Following on from the last post, here we have some temple guards to ward off large Cimmerians poorly disguised as followers of Thulsa Doom. The colour scheme is based on that worn by Doom's followers in the film.



( as soon as I saw these 1977 Ral Partha ancient figures, I thought the pointy helmet might be painted as a hat-priestly coif)
