Another butch semi-clad barbarian by Hasslefree miniatures! I pulled all the stops out for this guy - NMM, tattoos, display base and freehand on the shield! The tattoos were my own design, but I got the pattern for the shield from a famous Japanese Tsunami woodcut.

The rock is a chunk of slate, the rubble is small bits of cork and I have also used brass etched ferns for detail. The helmet is from a GW Chaos Warrior, but I have no idea where the shield came from!

I see the items on the base as harking back to the martial influences on the warrior as he goes through a kata on a sacred rock in the middle of a woodland clearing.

This is probably my favourite model to date and I hope you like him too!

this is a very solid paintjob. I couldnt find a single error if I wanted to nitpick. The Skin looks very convincing, very realistic and the freehand on the shield is pretty amazing too. I really like the base too. great work!

Really great skintones, and the tattoos, although relatively simple, really enhance it as well. Truly impressed!

i think it`s your best paintjob up to date (at least from those i`ve seen). the base really enhances the look of the model.

Excellent, conveys a really great atmosphere... Kind of "wherever you're hiding beast, I'll find you and you'll regret it". Top job!
