Description Aha! I found a copy of my short swords piece when it was still Conan. This was used for a pitch that sadly never amounted to anything.
One day I WILL do a Conan story though - I'm determined!

Very best,

Liam.

Holy crap, Conan is perfect, gritty drawn and mean looking. Only thing letting the pic down is the background, it's too digital I feel...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LiamRSharp In reply to KenJeremiassen [2007-04-16 17:09:15 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

Re. the background - I like it because it has that perfect symetry that you get in architecture. I wanted it to feel that it was brand new in this time - the time of the picture - though somehow archaic to our eyes.

Very best, and thanks for the kind words.

Liam.

Thank you! I think it's my age - all the classic stuff from Frazetta through Buscema to BWS went into it...

Very best, and big thanks,

CimmerianIllustrator [2007-03-06 11:44:31 +0000 UTC]

It is one of the best Conan art, I have ever seen...

And it is definately in the spirit of Robert Howard's descriptions!

Certainly my favorite deviation ever, so far!

I just hope , I see you do a mini series , or even the main series, someday!

you're a natural fit for Conan comics (and Red Sonja!!!), i'm surprised you havent been offered anything

LiamRSharp In reply to LYSAD [2007-02-05 12:55:15 +0000 UTC]

I did a Sonja oneshot, and am negotiating another at the moment. I came REALLY close to doing Conan, but for some reason it fell through...

Thanks for the kind words though! Let's hope!

Very best,

LiamRSharp [2007-02-04 12:51:04 +0000 UTC]

Thanks all! I was really happy with this piece, I have to admit. I felt I got him right. I loved Barry Smith, Frazetta and Buscema's Conans, and here I tried a mix of all three - Frazetta's stark brute, Barry smith's exquisite detail and Buscema's brooding mass. I felt I kind of got close to achieving that.

Very best, and thanks,

Liam.
