following on with my mini series of models from my paint table, all this week I've been showing pics of the minis I picked up at Salute this year from Hasslefree Miniatures, not because I needed them but simply because they're excellent and I wanted them! So to finish this little run off I give you the third of my purchases - Tregar....
"Little is known of Tregar's origin, too many conflicting tales muddy the waters. Most agree that his battle against the great Hog Giant in the Swamps of Hen'Darr was one of epic proportions. Some tales include a stint as the leader of one of the roaming tribes of the Southern Steppes and others say it was as a Zuun of the Horde. Vying with the great 'Wolf' for most talked about barbarian in the realms, find any tavern favoured by the adventuring kind and you will find another story of 'Tregar the Wanderer'."
Obviously I got him for the uncanny similarities between Tregar and a certain Cimmerian. Although I don't have a specific use for him, who doesn't need a barbarian mini at some point? i painted him up pretty standard for a barbar, brown loin cloth, leather and a bronzed shield and hand painted shield design of a dragon's eye that I came up with and think came out well.
That's it for this week and this series folks, no doubt these three will feature in some kind of dungeon crawl or fantasy adventure at some time, maybe even a zombie apoc cosplay group, who knows? sometimes you've just got to have the shiny miniatures and find a use for them later.....
hope you enjoy
