That's a nice detail to the pendant, Brian @brithebuilder
I love those kinds of details.

OK, here's a question for you all... @johnb, @fiveten, @chinesegeorge, @bikequeen, @anthonyricco, @eb801, @tcinla, @gwskat, @roofrat, @gblair, @lis, @coondog, @stephen-w-towle, @beauslx, @tom-bebout, @v1pro, @rory, @snaps0351 - the axe on the left side is important to the composition. It leads the viewer's eye back to Conan... Is it embedded in the guy that's crumpling?

This just might be a case of “much ado about nothing”. Or...”if you stare at something long enough it will start to look wrong”. How ‘bout “a willing suspension of disbelief”?

Conan can do 3 things at once and I’m sure there were plenty of axes strewn about and up for grabs in that pileup. Hmmm. Now you got me wondering too, Brian @brthebuilder

I would say, yes, it is embedded in the guy. @brithebuilder

If that is something you would like to not depict, maybe you could have that lower individual rolled on his right side, while still prone, facing the main warrior, holding the axe in his left hand pointed towards the warrior, to maintain the "viewers line" back toward the main warrior.

It looks like a cool scene to model. GOOD LUCK, Brain. Can't wait to see it completed.

It's stuck in the victim's spine

Today's progress.

@bikequeen - Thanks Cricket. I honestly didn't think this was going to be possible let alone actually be good. LOL I've never done anything to this level. The Death Dealer turned out really well, but there was no detail like this. Each one of these dudes is it's own anatomy study. Fortunately I love anatomy studies.

@brithebuilder I think Conan planted his main battle axe in the guys back, and carried a second smaller axe as back up.
