A terrific prelim. Almost finished pencils actually!

Made even better that you have the published option in your collection as well.

Thanks for posting this hidden gem and sharing on CAF.

Glad you like! I like all of Norem's Conan prelims, and yes pleased to have both options. Which I have on a few others too. Sometimes he even did three options.

Very unique unseen concept! It might be too different with Conan using fire instead of a sword to ward off the horde. With Norem, it would be a more colorful painting in the end.

I wonder if this drawing made the next step to a coloured drawing, would have been good to see the fire, smoke and cinders flying around!
