Quote from the artist: Well, I've mentioned this a few times on the forum. Years ago, while I worked at Foundry, I sculpted a Thrud figure to enter at Golden Demon. I entered and didn't even make first cut but then I think they were a little perplexed by a Thrud being entered.
Bryan Ansell made a mould of him and about 10 or so were cast. I've got one more somewhere (I think) but the rest all got snapped up at Foundry. I later converted this figure into Sigurd the Significant, the giant Viking that Foundry released as a ltd edition along with Thrudella the Temptress.
Anyway, finally took a photo of my Thrud. Now, remember this is only about my tenth mini and I've got a whooole lot better since then. And I lacked much time to paint him (Bryan cast him after work on the Friday before GD).
So, here's my ultra ltd, non-official, cast by the former owner of GW and painted by the sculptor THRUD THE BARBARIAN!!!
Oh, and the Giant head is scratch built too but isn't a casting.
