Designing and sculpting Ogres really is fun. Need more scars, skulls and bones!!! The Ogre Dominion takes no prisoners. All flesh is tasty, whether you're a human, a beast or a dwarf. Only thing different is how you're cooked!

Another Ogre getting conscripted into the army! The Ogre Wars are shaping up to be brutal. 👹

Oh hey, do you paint minis? Join my Discord so you can keep reminding me to sculpt stuff that looks fun to paint. :D
I like feedback from mini painters. 👀

Printed out Barnacle! The file, as well as pre-supported version, is available for free on my stores on MMF and Cults! :)

Which other Daggerheart minis should I sculpt next?

Free miniature release from The Sculpted Lands, Chapter 1: “The Ogre Wars”! Get a taste for the army of the Ogre Kingdom with this warrior in stl format for 3d printing! The Ogres, and other included armies, will have both modular options for wargaming and single-part options!

After I don't even know how many iterations here's the style of Ogres I'd be going in for now. Now to make a bunch of variants and test them out.
Ogres have tested my patience way too much, time to finish them. 😃
And hey, follow my campaign on Gamefound. It'll be 'uge I promise. Link in comments.

Had to rethink a bit of the proportions and detailing on the Ogres for miniature scale. Sometimes it's best to call something a failure and start over than to proceed with something that is not going to work. The old model might just turn into a more realistic larger figure

My first free miniature for the Daggerheart Quickstart Adventure is ready to be downloaded! :)
I'm excited to do the other characters, as well!
You can find Barnacle on my MMF Store. (Linktree in profile)

Head-ing to the Ogre Kingdom.
Some of the heads for the Ogre units. Working on at least a few more for these guys who will be part of the Ogre Kingdom army I'll introduce in "The Sculpted Lands" Campaign.
Link to follow the campaign in the first comment.

On the schedule today - modular Ogres for wargames like Warhammer (they won't be fitting with Sigmar perfectly cuz I dislike their proportions; they look more like dwarves tbh) and stuff. Already have a guy sculpted, time to polish him, split into parts and create variants.

A few more angles on Barnacle. I have a turntable getting rendered, as well.

Boom, ready to call this Daggerheart fan miniature done! Now to print it in resin and see what's what before I release the STL for free. Will post more screenshots in a bit, too.

Starting to put the finishing touches on my model of Barnacle from Daggerheart. I did a couple changes to the design but it's still very much Barnacle.

Soon it would be time to resin print him and see how everything looks at miniature size.
December 3, 2025 at 12:44 PM
I've started exploring Daggerheart's world and game system so I am sculpting the Barnacle miniature! He's almost done. Fan art, I'm doing it for 3d printing so I can print it in resin at home.

Now that we have a big sling and some ammo to go along with it... next would probably be some beasts for transporting stuff. And mounts. And pulling siege weapons.

In certain cases throwing rocks at stuff isn't enough. So Goblins resort to launching dynamite. Big dynamite.

With "The Sculpted Lands" I'm tackling important questions like "If a goblin wanted to throw big rocks at stuff, what would that look like?".

I'm assuming rubber bands would be involved.

Hippity, hoppity, on the road to a resin printer.

But not yet, still a wip.

My Barnacle fan miniature from the #Daggerheart quickstart addventure is hopping into fruition.

Still changing things all over the place about pose and some proportions. The pose from the sketch wasn't working for me in 3d. :P

Tying the ballista to the ground when weary goblins are tired of pushing it..

The froggiest miniature fan art I've ever done is progressing. Daggeheart's Barnacle is one stealthy frog.

I might be changing the sketch a little bit. Still on an early wip with the pose and shapes. The legs would need to be thicker to 3d print this. :P
