You want barbarians? Ronal has got barbarians. The first character drawings from upcoming Danish cult animation Ronal The Barbarian - from the directors of Terkel in Trouble and Journey to Saturn - have just arrived and ScreenAnarchy has got your first look. We've got a mixture of images here, some showcasing the characters as they will appear in the finished film and some early design sketches so you can see how they developed. Check them out - along with a couple shots from the film - in the gallery below!
Ronal is a young barbarian with low self-esteem, the polar opposite of all the muscular barbarians in his village. He's a real wuss. However, as fate would have it, responsibility for the tribe's survival falls on Ronal's scrawny shoulders, when the evil Lord Volcazar raids the village and abducts every living barbarian. With the exception of Ronal, who is forced to go on a perilous quest to save his enslaved clan and thwart Volcazar's plot to rule the world. Along the way, our unlikely hero is joined by Alibert the buttery bard, Zandra the gorgeous shield-maiden and Elric the metrosexual elfin guide. To ultimately vanquish the enemy, the band must overcome awesome challenges.
