158 Dragon Brass

Brass Dragon - distinctive one. His wings are attached to its body all the way to the tip of its tail. The wings are longest at the shoulder, and tapered gently as they reached the tail.

Templates available only for the patrons can be download here:

On the upcoming week, depending on my free time, I am going to draw either the next dragon of the MM5e or something more simply like the dragon slayer.

Thank you once again for supporting me :)

SF 001 Ogre panzerfaust

 

Ha!

I bet you haven't expected new mini in the middle of the week. Especially Sci-fi one! More information you can find on older poll here --> https://www.patreon.com/posts/48404343

I plan to publish a new sf unit every second week, when we get a small bundle pack of them, I will ask if you want me to continue with sf and direction I should go (sci-fi, post apo, cyberpunk, smaller or larger sets etc)

The first mini is free for everyone, the upcoming will be available for $3 patrons.

Please leave a coment if you like it, don't like or want to suggest anything.

155 Dragon - black

Sorry for the delay, I had busy period of time and the larger units like dragons take more time to draw.

The next dragon I will try to finish on Sunday.

What else, A6 version of for termosublime printers  is slightly smaller than A4 and Letter.

lSorry for a small delay. I try to publish new miniature every Sunday. 

If you are looking a similar but larger miniature, you can check Bone Dragon https://www.patreon.com/posts/21445013

Also you can check undead minis from no. 10 to 21.

Btw. First sci fi miniature will be publish somewhere in the middle of the week.

Poll - Sci-fi miniatures

The idea came to my mind long, long time ago. 

This idea is about to start creating sci-fi/cyberpunk/post-apo miniatures available for $3 patrons. Minis dedicated mostly for wargaming/skirmish tabletop but also for adventure RPG. My initial plan is to create a few units of each race. Space marines, infected, ogres, aliens, robots, etc...

Take a look at animated prototypes down below. Do you like them?



I suppose this fresh idea gives me energy to produce a new miniature every second week. The question is: would you find them useful and interesting enough to support me?

To sum up:

No change for tier 1$, $2, $4

$3 - change from custom miniatures to sci-fi units - 1 miniature every 2 weeks.



The poll is only informative but will help me to choose the right decision.

Vote ends in the end of the month. No rush.

Thank you.

136 Demogorgon (classic version)

Demogorgon became famous by a great serie - The Stranger Things.

The fact is a classic Demogorgon is two-headed mix of snake/ape.

The next week - another daemon from MM5e.

127 Centaur

Hello everyone.

As a paper miniature creator who designed over 170 minis in total and made about 250-300 papercuts for myself, I can tell you that storing such a huge amount of minis with attached metal washers is quite a challenge.    

I l've been looking for the most efficient way to make metal washers removable. Tested dozens of ideas that came to my mind.    

After a few months of testing a magnetic foil, I believe it's a best way (to me) to assemble it to metal washers which make paper minis heavy and durable. And what's important, the piece of metal can be removed any time you want.

Image tutorial down below.

A mammoth for a set of "arctic monsters and animals" for 3rd tier patrons will be published later today. Stay tuned.

118 Fallen angel

This time is female angel. According to Monster Manual we have a few more: Deva, Planetar and Solar I would like to skip. They are all quite similar.

Upcoming miniatures: Animated objects - armor and rug of smothering, Ankheg, Azer.

On the next weekend I will also finish a set of 25 tokens (circle+silhouette) made out of existing miniatures. I also started working on final mini for a small set Spirits of nature - I hope I will finish it earlier.

096 duerger

I send the version of the mini you have chosen.

Duergar - a subrace called Gray Dwarves that live in the Underdark.

Out of the abyss - chapter 2.


I have also bad news. 

It's my personal problem but I want to share it  with you my friends.

Due to coronavirus my company reduces employees and... without notification I lost my job : ( : (

It's nearly impossible to find a new one right now, so only what I can do is trying to pick up commissions online + continue designing minis.

I want to greatfully thank you for support my work. Thanks to your pledges my unemployment becomes only a bad news but not a financial disaster.

Thank you once again!

Lucas and family.

Duergar - choose the version

Duergar - called grey dwarves, exist in the Underdark, often near volcanoes.

Doctor Plague - choose the version

These days the world needs a protector that would stop spreading the coronavirus - Doctor Plague sounds a right choice.  I will publish a miniature of him on upcoming Sunday. 

Which version do you prefer?

Work in progress - choose the version.

Currently I am working on:

1) Goblin on Worg - for higher tier patrons. It will be published in the end of March.

2) Deep Gnome that will be released on Sunday.  I wonder which version you prefer more?  If I find more time on weekend will try to finish both Gnomes.

Advices & suggestions are always welcomed. Poll ends tomorrow.

092 Myconid

Myconid - peaceful and shy Underworld race.

Higher tier patrons can still send an idea for custom miniature in comment section here --> https://www.patreon.com/posts/34472291

There is only "goblin on worg" and there is only one day left.

I also uploaded a youtube tutorial - how to make removable magnetic stands for paper miniatures. I started using this method, so far it works to me.

Myconid - pencil sketch

As I said, I am able to show you the work in progress somewhere in the middle of the week.  Juts let me know if you like to receive a sort of this stuff.

I also make some tests with an interesting tool - magnetic foil. This 0,7mm black sheet of A4 format can magnet metal parts, for example 1" metal washers :) 

So this is the second afternoon I cut circles, cut them to half and put on top of mini's base. 

Soon I will launch youtube tutorial showing the details...

061 Dire Wolf

A newest miniature is done. Dire Wolf appears in chapter 2 - Curse of Strahd. MM5e - page 321. In upcoming week I will be working on - Werewolf.

I have also three news:

1) I have updated a table of content. Patreon is not easy to scroll the content down so I guess a small thumbnails with direct links will be helpful. https://www.patreon.com/posts/table-of-content-26679368

2) It seems I will have a bit more time on September. If some of you are in need of your own miniature you can leave a request in comment over there: https://www.patreon.com/posts/28253488

3) I set up a new goal miniature. I hope it will be released soon.

056 Assassins

I share a new mini a day earlier. I am busy tomorrow.

Assassins are our first characters for Curse of Strahd - chapter 01.

 It took me lots of extra time to make 2 different miniatures in one template, I hope you like the final result.

I also updated the "table of content" with direct links to my earlier minis: https://www.patreon.com/posts/26679368

Download a proper file below. Recently I use only A6 format. I print it on my termosublime printer, sometimes I use self service photo kiosks available in most of supermarkets in my local area.

052 NPCs - Innkeepers

"Welcome strangers!

It looks you had a very long journey. Sit down and relax.

My wife is preparing a tasty food for you. Crispy chicken and potatoes.

Meanwhile... try my self made beer. Enjoy!" :)


I think we have a nice set of NPCs already done. Let me know if you are in need of more.

 I'd like to focus on some new monsters now. Finish a Gnome Cleric - a goal miniature, a large Troll which we haven't and make a custom mini of May. (I wonder what you will choose) 

I think it's right time to talk about a new adventure module you would like me to draw next. Leave your proposals in comment below.

I will pick up your best ideas and make a final poll soon.

Sneak peek of upcoming daemon + info

The last miniature that closes Lost Mine of Phandelver - adventure module will come on upcoming Sunday. Be ready.

The vote for a custom miniature of April has ended with three winners which received the same score.

- Gnome Cleric by Michael, 3 stages of level up hero (beginner, adventurer, hero) by John and Set of random NPCs by Robin.

I can't draw all 3 ideas and it's hard to choose one of them. Trying to make all happy, here is my proposal.

- 3 stages of "level up hero" I will add to the next vote on Mai.

- Gnome Cleric will land to "goal reward"

- I pick up a set of random NPCs because we have noone in resources. I was also ask a few times about some civilians and guardians. 

- my favorite creature was the Sahuagin by Donathin which received some extra votes. I will add him to a "goal reward" as well.

045 Druid

There are only a few minis left for the Lost Mine of Phandelver module but I wanted to take a rest and design something more common. A Druid- we don't have anything similar.

We have a winner for the monthly custom mini - some terrain obstacles! That's great! I will deliver them in two weeks. There were also some other great ideas. I plan to pick up one of them extra and publish it as a "goal miniature".

I started thinking about a sort of "table of content". We have more than 50 minis now and scrolling down the page is getting problematic.
