Crestfallen and enraged, the violet witchlight shone in his eyes as he saw his beloved Keziah Mason fall over the edge of the cliff. No matter what, Brown Jenkin knew he must have his vengeance! That heartless Walter Gilman was a dead man! Heartless, or soon to be!

it's me, unnamed critter from bosch's triptych of the temptation of anthony!
me with a blue funnel like hat, with a stick out the top holding a red ball on a string. I have on a red capelet and am carrying a letter with calligraphy and a seal in my crooked beak. I've got a badge with a symbol on it the guy from the original painting that's got on my outfit except it's wearing tan turnshoes

Happy #MedievalMonday friends! I know it's been a bit since I've released any #miniatures but I've been working on this one for a bit and finally got the chance to print test it the other day. Link below - get it now! #minipainting #3Dprinting
Render of a miniature depicting Phyllis, wife of Alexander the Great, riding the philosopher Aristotle like a horse. He wears a bridle in his mouth and she holds a flogger in her hand, grinning at him sadistically.

This was a fun and quick paint from #Bloodwork, a new skirmisher. I got sent some minis as a part of their promotion on Gamefound, this being one of them. It's a neat little objective token (I guess?), and now I'm obsessed with making more little tokens and scatter items!!!

This Bonan the Barbarian was really fun to paint, he's not for an army or anything, just because I love the sculpt. He's a 3-up so he's quite a tall lad, get yours from @heresyminiatures.com here: heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.p... #jhbackdrops #nerdlings

I don't have many a halloween mini in my library, and overall creepy or scary characters, because I need my friendly-fluffy-rainbow-cute escape from the horrors of the world.

Pick up happy pumpkins to print?

On a teal background, a gray print of terrain pieces: two similar Jack-o'-lanterns in different scale. They have friendly faces and curly stems.

I messed up the scale first time printing this one but my supports were fine so I guess I’ll be releasing it in 25mm scale as well as 32mm

On a dark blue background, a colorful render of a 3d model depicting a ttrpg character: a femme goblin spell-caster in a nightgown/dress, carrying a magic tome on her back. She has a candle in her hand, and there's a spell surrounding her figure.
