Borg Huntmaster - Human Barbarian

The Borg Huntmaster strides into battle as a towering Human Barbarian, a singular physical resin miniature cast in fine detail and delivered ready to assemble and paint. Standing at approximately 35mm scale to the eye line, this imposing warrior clutches a massive crescent axe overhead, his broad chest wrapped in layered fur pelts and studded leather armour. A grim trophy hangs at his belt, and a beast skull rests beneath his boot, reinforcing his reputation as a ruthless predator of the wilds.

The sculpt captures raw, brutal energy from every angle. The front view reveals an intricate braided beard, a horned helmet, and deeply carved fur texture across the pauldrons and lower body. The rear view showcases an equally detailed fur cloak with individual tufts rendered with precision, along with wrapped bracers and fur-trimmed boots. This character was sculpted by Haito, whose design work brings a striking sense of weight and ferocity to every surface. The Borg Huntmaster is supplied as a single-character release, making him ideal as a hero, champion, or boss model on the tabletop.

Every copy of the Borg Huntmaster ships with supports already removed and the surface cleaned and sanded where needed. No printing is required on your part. The miniature arrives ready to be assembled if multi-part, primed, and painted to your preferred standard, whether that is a quick tabletop finish or a fully shaded display piece.

This model suits collectors and wargamers who appreciate heavily detailed barbarian and northern warrior aesthetics. The rocky scenic base adds immediate visual impact straight from the box and requires no additional basing work unless you wish to customise further.

The following guide will help you bring the Borg Huntmaster to life with a cold, northern colour palette that suits his hunter origins and fearsome presence.

1. Prime

• Apply a grey or off-white primer to preserve the fine detail of the fur, beard, and armour panels.
• A zenithal highlight using white from above will help map the natural light source before painting begins.

2. Armour Base

• Base coat exposed skin areas with a warm mid-tone flesh such as Cadian Fleshtone or equivalent.
• Paint the leather straps and belt in a dark brown such as Rhinox Hide, leaving recesses untouched for natural shading.

3. Trim and Details

• Pick out the studs, rivets, and buckles in a tarnished brass or aged bronze tone to suggest years of hard use.
• Paint the rope wrappings in a pale cream or linen tone, then wash lightly with Agrax Earthshade.

4. Weapons

• Basecoat the axe blade in Dark Reaper or Leadbelcher, then edge highlight in a lighter steel to bring out the blade geometry.
• Apply a rust wash to the lower edge of the blade to suggest wear from battlefield use.

5. Weathering

• Stipple Typhus Corrosion or a similar texture paint onto the lower armour and boots to simulate mud and grime from long campaigns.
• Dry brush the fur and cloak with a pale bone colour such as Ushabti Bone to create depth and highlight the raised fibres.

6. Bases

• Drybrush the rocky base with Administratum Grey, then add a light wash of Nuln Oil into the crevices for contrast and shadow.
