Shadowrun Minotaur from Ral Partha

[72moonglum]

Hello to all you bovine aficionados!

 

So a while back ago I did a normal minotaur, Greek-type mythological beast with an axe on two legs.   This one is a little different, it's a Shadowrun Minotaur which has a bull's body and a "primate" face.  I think Jim Johnson sculpted it back in the nineties, as usual forgot to check for a date on the bottom.  Pretty straight forwards colors, and it's actually kind of a big and heavy model. Put him on an oval base because there was no way he was going to fit on a normal size circle one:

 

 

Anyhoos, hope you guys all enjoy him!

Me too, sometimes it turns into one of those things that I say I've just got to have, and other times I just go - Hmmmm, interesting....

Thanks Glitterwolf!  The beast himself was inspired by a Shadowrun type of creature/monster, which is kind of an opposite minotaur.  Ral Partha also put out another interesting figure, kind of along the same line, which is a centaur like any other but with a horse head instead of a human one.

What an excellent mini, and an awesome paint job.
