He's Strong & Powerful and an edgy depth and an Atmospheric mood. Fantastic drawing & imaginative figures

Yup, this is the badass-barbarian himself! Meticulously penciled with great care - well done! But; he looks a tad miffed...maybe because Big Red has tried to done him in and escaped with all the gold/baubles/worthies again?!

The graphic quality of this portrait is interesting. The wood, the hair, and the flesh are all treated in distinct ways, something which helps strengthen the composition. This is not someone I recognize, but it must mean something to you in order to spend your talents on him. What is important for you may become important for the viewer, at least you hope so.

THIS IS GREAT TIM!!! BEAUTIFULL CREATION!!!

Oh I LOVE this big bad brute! Conan is a classic and you did him justice. However, don't be afraid to use darker values in your shading. They'll really make a difference. Awesome job!!

Oehh! This one is cool! Makes me think of those cool Celtic guys, but more of the people who were living in the Netherlands before the Middle Ages. The arrows seem too small for him, but the axe makes it all right. :p Very nice! The coints on the table too give it a 'pub-style'.

Mayme Crouse 01 Oct 2005

Getting paid for his contract killing should of put a smile on his face.......lol Great detail everything, hands, muscles, hair and woodgrain great attention to detail.

Zech! this is one of the best! Love the way U did his skin! had to stop by to see what U were up to! What next!!! LOL! U could be really dangerous...watch out with that sharp graphite! It is unfair to carry disguised weapons! Have a good weekend n behave yourself with that eraser too! Meant to say thank U for all the support, it means more than U realize. CB

Bucky Benson 24 Feb 2005

kristie taylor 22 Feb 2005

Sybille Sterk 22 Feb 2005

Terry Bullard 21 Feb 2005

I use to draw Conan in my younger days! This is great...and I love the wooden cup.

Juan Gomez 21 Feb 2005

Glad to see Conan is back ..nice drawing Tim..

Heavens 21 Feb 2005

Wonderful picture. I love fantasy drawing, more so then realism. It's what dreams are made of. You have captured the warrior well. Once again the details and shading are great!

Asia S. 20 Feb 2005

cool dude!!!

Lauren Maxwell 20 Feb 2005

wowza Tim! This looks utterly fantastic! I wish I could draw blood as well as you, it's such a tricky substace. Thicker then water yet thinner then jelly. You did a wonderful job, your gally will be re-filled in no time!

Aleczandra Kulig 20 Feb 2005

Excellent job on the details and shading of this drawing. You also captured a mood of anger and disapproval in his expression in his face. Has real emotion in this drawing.
