Rough sketch of the Toad King

Hello fellow trappers!

Here’s a little surprise concept sketch of the next loyalty model. This is how all our models start as a rough concept sketch. They then get refined and honed before being sent to the sculptor. This will eventually be the finalized Toad King Elder Dragon. We hope you enjoy seeing a little bit into our design process.

May your blades stay sharp, and your flesh on your bones.

New model of Grimpaw without a saddle added to monthly release!

Many of you asked if there could be a version of Grimpaw without a saddle to use as a dire wolf.

Luckily I was able to work with him and get a version done without the saddle and it looks great! Follow the link below or download from the monthly release post to get the model!
