**tre manor**

Hello All,

I just recetly found my way here and figured I would sign up and jump right in! My name is Tre manor.....hence the user name yeh?

I am a sculptor of 32mm scale figrues ( don't let the number fool you, they are smaller than what you migth think. ) and the owner operator of Red Box Games.

RBG was started to provide a line of figures consistent with the highest standards of the industry in terms of product quality and of a very strong " Old School " aesthetic. As you may have guessed the name " Red Box Games " is a play on the old " Red Box " rules set for DnD. That was my first gaming product ( though not quite my INTRODUCTION to the game ), and thus the intent of the company is to bring back the " Old School " flavour but updated for modern tastes. Right now I am focusing my efforts on a very Norse theme for most of the armies to be featured in the coming game that I am also workign on to use with the miniatures. But don't get the wrong idea, they are intedned for whatever use you put them to.

As such I have on offer a range of Dwarves ( Dvergr ) 15 figures strong and counting, Elves ( Aelfar and DokkAelfar ) 11 figures strong and counting, Norse Humans ( Njorn ) 7 figures strong and counting, marauder humans ( HelsVakt ) 7 figures strong and counting, and Goblins ( Goblins

) 5 figures strong and counting. I intend to expand these ranges significantly with heroes and units, and plan to add more ranges as well.

All figures are cast in high quality white metal and are built to work well with most manufacturers ranegs, btu are usually a bit smaller than most of them.

One disclaimer here... The Dwarf figures pictured as green are slightly larger than the dwarf figures pictured as gray. All future Dwarfs will be sized identically to the gray dwarves.

As an example here are two of nine new figures due for release this month ( hopefully in the next 2 weeks ).

Ymir the White, Lord of StoneGate;

Clemundr LongSeer of StoneGAte

And a few examples of my previous stuff..........

Bolverk the Bold

Ulfgar of Auldheim

WoldVagner the Wise

Yrsa the Accursed

Conradt the Crazed

Aurelius the Adept

Myrianna of Aelfheim

Yvander Halfblood MarchWarden scout

Dagny of Freyja

Mordred of Niflheim Wyrm'sBane

Crowbiter Goblin Shaman

Hostrom Hammersmite

Anyway, hello all and I hope that I can contribute in a positive way to the Dakka Dakka community.

Awesome sculpts and welcome to the boards! : )

Hm... visions of using your "WoldVagner" model as an Inquisitor are dancing through my head...

**BrookM**

Hi, welcome. Do you have a site?

**insaniak**

I've been following the RGB stuff on Frothers for a while now... Lovely work.

**jmurph**

Those are some fantastic sculpts! When will they be available?

Your Google-fu is weak:

Would be nice to see them side by side with GW minis.

I have ordered "Red Vanielle the Dark Beloved" from the web shop Battlefield Berlin to convert into an Inq28 assassin (haven't arrived yet).

If she is in GW scale I will probably also buy the following:
Shadowblade Reyviande - will also become an assassin
Dagny Mistress of the Dawn, Priestess of Freyja - convert to an Imperial noblewoman
Yrsa the Accursed - ?

Finding good female character minis for 40k is hard.
This range looks really good (despite being Fantasy).

**MagickalMemories**

Holy snotballs.

VERY nice stuff.

Any idea on prices for these things?

Also... I don't see any "old school" in these things. The heads and hands would have to be disproportionately large with FAR less detail on the models. LOL

Eric

**Sarrazon**

Gorram, these are some sweet models. I may just have to put in an order. I especially love that you know how to sculpt female faces, it seems to be a skill somewhat lacking in parts of our little hobby.

well.. the WEBSTORE linked above has most of those models at $8.99 each... some are as low as $6.50, and he has packs of 3 for about $17..

**jah-joshua**

...
everyone is being nice, 'cause your new here...
soon enough they will be tearin' you a new hole

...

you know i'm a fan...

cheers

You know, something about them (lack of ridiculously oversized weapons, more "adventur-y" gear, static poses on the wizardly types, etc.) reminds me of those really, really old Grenadier D&D figs.

Great work, RBG. Looking forward to picking these up.

**Cheese Elemental**

Wow! These are fething sweet! The Adept guy is just the ticket for a WHFB Empire wizard, and the rest all look great for D&D minis.

[edit]
Also, now that I've tried to visit the store, I've discovered that it is :sniffle: blocked at my work.

These are fantastic! I know you said they are 32mm scale but I'd like to see how they compare to some standard rank & file troops from the Warhammer range.

**Cannerus_The_Unbearable**

The Goblin Shaman and any figure with a cloak = love.

**Gavin Thorne**

Beautiful!

And since I'm getting the gaming group back together, these will definitely be on the menu when we're rolling up characters!

**tre manor**

WOW! Thanks everybody!

Oi Insaniak!

Oi Joshua!

When will they be available?

Only the Ymir and Clemundr figures are not yet availble, btu they should be within the next two weeks ( SHIPPING by then )

some are as low as $6.50

Actually the newer dwarves are $5.99 and there is a gnome theif for $4.99.

I know you said they are 32mm scale

Well when I say 32 mm scale, I mean that the average human male is built on an armature that measures 32 mm from the bottom of the feet to the top of the head, with both feet together and back straight. So the human males tend to be between 32 and 34 mm tall, their poses of course alter the standing height, but this is the idea. Elves tend to range bewteen 29 and 31 mm tall, dwarves ( the older ones ) tend to range between 22 and 26 mm tall while the newer dwarves tend to range between 20 and 23mm tall ( this is the scale that all future dwarf releases will fit ).

I hope this has been helpful. I am ALWAYS open to criticism and suggestions.

Best Regards,

Tre'

**Reecius**

Wow! Those are fantastic!

**aurelion**

Great to see you on dakka, i have followed your work on warseer and I am a huge fan

I really enjoy seeing alternative models, that can be used for WH fantasy, Red Box Games is a prime example of this.

Keep up the great work.

**anticitizen013**

Beautiful! Thanks so much for the comparison photos. Absolutely stunning. This gives me many ideas that will no doubt cost me money I don't have

**mikhaila**

Emails have been sent, and Tre and I are talking. I want these in my stores ASAP!.)

Very nice looking models.

And I want to paint some.

**Da Boss**

Wow, I really love the style on these.
Excellent work!

Aha, new recruits for my forthcoming Slaaneshi WoC army! Very nice work.

Welcome to the Boards Tre'

**Kanluwen**

Tre, I love you.

Yvander Halfblood and Mordred would be great for a Naggarythe themed army.

Yvander especially would be awesome for an Alith Anar stand-in.

So, how about a unit of Halfblood scouts in that vein and I give you my wallet?

**Cryonicleech**

Absolutely fantastic.

However, only one thing.

All the Dwarves seem a bit static, but other than that, great work!

**cygnnus**

Great stuff!

Vale,

**MagickalMemories**

Have visited site.

::swoon::

**Quintinus**

These models=Fething awesome.

I don't play Fantasy but I wouldn't mind buying some just to paint.

Absolutely fantastic work.

**mikhaila**

Well, this line is going on the shelves at Showcase Comics quite soon. Just sent off the order. Posted the link up on my forums and people are already placing orders. Everyone is quite impressed.

**wspatterson**

I'm a big fan of Tre Manor's work for Reaper. Those minies look great.
