Back to the dark and violent world of Hate for a couple more angry barbarians. This first chap looks particularly imposing and animalistic, as if he’s about to charge like a bull and do some unfortunate soul a lot of damage with that big axe.
Meanwhile his smaller sidekick (and/or rival – I’m loosing track of who belongs to which tribe with these at the moment) still looks more than capable of causing all kinds of mayhem with that battered old sword.
This isn’t a project I’m feeling the need to dedicate myself to at the moment but I am enjoying having a few of these around and picking up the odd model here and there whenever the fancy takes me. Expect to see more of them popping up here and there over the months ahead.

Nasty! 🙂 Great looking with it!

Thank you! 😊

They are really cool minis – I like every one so far mate!
March 18th, 2022 at 1:05 pm
Cheers! They’re really nice models aren’t they? Loads of fun to paint too. Such a shame that they made this game limited edition (and so unnecessary too) – would have been great to see more tribes released from time to time. Still, I have about a billion of them to paint already so I can’t complain… 😅

These are a mean lot! Every time I see one, I think they look perfect for the Chaos Wastes of Warhammer Fantasy. Either that or squaring off with Conan perhaps! Great job painting them and I’ll be looking forward to seeing more 🙂

Cheers! The reason you’re getting a WHFB Warriors of Chaos vibe off them – and I 100% agree by the way – is that Adrian Smith, who’s art these are based on, also did some of the most iconic Warriors of Chaos art. To me this is everything the generic Chaos Marauders should have been.

That makes sense and while I know Adrian Smith’s name, I’d never made the connection between the two. GW could certainly give the Warriors of Chaos a bit of refresh to elevate them to this level!

Looking great! I’ve only seen a handful of Hate miniatures online (I really need to get to googling), but every one I have seen is so brutally full of character. Like you said, shame it’s only a limited edition.
March 19th, 2022 at 3:45 pm
Cheers! They’re really nice models in my opinion, every one of them is just packed with character. Well worth getting if you like barbarians and can find them at a decent price (which sadly is getting tricky these days).

These thugs really do look like they mean business. I’m not sure just how much the first one actually has to fight, I’m guessing most opponents simply have the sense to turn and run!
March 19th, 2022 at 2:12 pm
Haha! I know I would! Glad you like them mate! 🙂
March 19th, 2022 at 12:01 pm
this guys are what chaos barbarians shold have looked like
March 19th, 2022 at 12:17 pm
I couldn’t agree more!

Great work.
Love the old sword- looks like an oversized kitchen knife and all the more scary because of it.
Cheers,
Pete.

Thank you! I know just what you mean, it has a murderous simplicity to it doesn’t it?
March 23rd, 2022 at 7:02 am
Ooohhhh yeahhhh mean bastards. Nice work Mr Wudu
March 24th, 2022 at 7:06 pm
Thanks bud – and thanks again for inspiring/cajoling me into getting these. There’s just so many nice sculpts in this box – when can we expect to see you getting back to yours? 😉
March 25th, 2022 at 10:40 pm
Every time I see yours I feel inspired but I’m loving my pirate project buuuuut like you advised a long way back, it’s good to break things up a bit so maybe sooner rather than later.

I really like how well these Hate models have come out. I’ve got the sets too, but I can’t start a new project every time I see one of your bloody posts! – need to finish a few more models off first!
May 19th, 2022 at 6:06 pm
Haha! Well how do you think I feel with all your posts, we’re each as bad as the other! Looking forward to seeing your Hate models when you get around to them, whereupon I’ll be reminded about mine and distracted from whatever it was I was meant to be doing… 😅
May 20th, 2022 at 12:39 am
Heh, I’ll probably have to finish a whole lot of my old Citadel Chaos models before I get properly stuck into the Hate stuff. Working on a couple of those right now, in fact!
