I'm lifelong Conan fan and tend to cringe at modern stylizations of the film franchise but I gotta say, I do like this. Β The layout soars. Β Brilliantly symmetrical with each character represented with relevant placement. Β It shows that you watched the movie 10 times. Very respective details! My only criticism: the negative space. Β It doesn't work in your favor with upper 2/3 of the poster so lavish. Β The winter scenes in the opening of the film would work well there. Β But back to the point, brilliant job! Awesome work! I'd love to see more of your "style" Conan. Β All the best.

Cool. Just showed this to my D&D group. I was shocked none of them had seen it.

Thanks bro, yeh the second one is horrible. even the remake they did last year was pretty bad..devoid of any real story, i actually watched all of them and decided on this one...plus Arnold is the man.
