Barbarians by Jez Goodwin restored 1980’s new pictures

We were asked and it has been done!  Sculpted by Jes Goodwin in the early 1980’s and to some among the finest 28mm Barbarians to exist in metal these codes were among the first Alternative Armies restored in Project Asgard.  

Project Asgard was in its early days and hence the pictures were not among the best (ten years ago eh!) so they have been updated.  We have just restored the three Barbarian Centaurs as well so it seemed a good time and on top of that two set saver packs.  One with a saving off the full dozen and the other with a free Midsummer Druidess included.

Every miniature has a new picture of front and rear and these painted ones are from the personal collection of Sam Croes.  Above is our second favourite of them BP2 Fire Daughter.

These work in any game system as characters or rank and file in your warband.  The meanest of the bunch is of course BP12 Hax Ragged above; our favourite.

Enjoy the new pictures and we have an article coming later this year from Olihot27 who has a fantastic collection of Mr Goodwin’s restored miniatures from these Barbarians as well as his Dwarfs and from the Fantasy Monsters range. 

Thanks for Reading!
