Victrix Limited provides the essential tabletop clutter for builders recreating historical or fantasy environments with this 28mm scale set of modular Barrels. These high-detail scenery pieces are engineered in high-grade polystyrene to offer the wood-grain texture and iron-hoop detail required to bring a tavern, dockyard, or storeroom to life. For the dedicated hobbyist, this kit serves as a versatile resource for any Dark Age or Medieval project, allowing every scenic layout to be customized with three distinct barrel sizes.
This set is a comprehensive resource for terrain builders and scenario designers, packing 22 barrels across two high-density frames into a single package. You have the freedom to dress your tabletop with 4 large, 8 medium, and 10 small barrels, perfect for creating makeshift barricades or immersive objective markers. Because these are true multi-part plastic figures (supplied as halves for maximum detail), the parts assemble naturally to ensure your tabletop scene looks like a cohesive, museum-quality environment.

Recommended Essentials
-
Professional Pairing: To create the ultimate raid objective, pair these barrels with the Victrix Treasures & Chests set to represent a fully stocked monastery or merchant’s cellar.
-
The Barricade Edge: For a battle-worn look, glue several barrels together in a cluster on a 60mm Round Base to create durable, scatter-terrain barricades for your skirmish games.
-
Speed Painting Path: Start with a Brown or Tan Primer. Once dry, a simple heavy drybrush of a lighter wood tone followed by a dark wash will make the iron hoops and wood grain pop with minimal effort.
-
Maintenance & Care: Use a Precision Hobby Knife to remove the small attachment gates from the flat tops and bottoms of the barrels to ensure they sit perfectly level on your gaming surface.
