I’ve enjoyed painting up quite a host of the ‘plastic playing pieces’ that I got with Zombicide Black Plague (see related posts). As I’ve mentioned on various posts the quality of the miniatures included with this type of board game has come on in leaps and bounds in the recent past and Conan the Board Game is no exception.

The KS pledge turned up last year but I’ve been a bit slower in tackling the miniatures (still working on the ZBP stuff too). But I thought I should at least paint up the main characters from the core box below. Far less cartoony than the ZBP counterparts, they will easily do double-duty in other Fantasy systems/settings.

First up, Conan himself of course. Next, the slightly non-politically correct Queen of the Black Coast and captain of the infamous pirate ship Tigress, Bêlit.

Shevatas, King of thieves

Hadrathus, the sorcerer. Did my best with the lighting but not convinced at all. From another “project-that-never-materialized” I had this miniature from Hasslefree Miniatures (actually sent as a freebie with my main order). Strikingly ‘similar’ in theme to Bêlit, I thought I’d paint her up at the same time. A few more Conan and Z:BP minis to follow soon.
