Hi everybody,
first of all: the Gate to the Sea of Stars release is finished, with a small statue addition coming in three different states of ruin. I went for a look that was slender and solemn, and maybe a bit alien too, to give the "from an unkown past" vibe. The head pieces combine with the style of the ruins of this month, which should make them fit in nicely. They can be used as scatter terrain decoration or as col...

Hi everybody,
I am currently working on the statues for September. In the meanwhile I thought it would be a good thing to post the poll for November! For those who missed it, October will be the Ellirmilborg Ruins Expansion. I have already worked on that set a bit and it has changed slightly from the original plan, but I think in a good way! Pre-release pictures coming in a few days.
There are two new entries for this poll,...

Hi everybody,
the first part of the release is finished and uploaded!
The Gate. This gargantuan structure will be a great centerpiece for a memorable portal-boss battle. It stands 36 cm tall and 24 cm wide, so it will be towering quite a bit on the table!
The presupported version is hollowed, of course, and right now I am uploading only the split version for large printers, which can be print...

Hi everybody,
here is a WIP of the Gate itself! (With an Arby in the bottom left for scale).
The idea for this model is to make a gargantuan centerpiece for a boss battle, and I think it is getting there :) Of course the model will be split and hollowed. It should have a version without the stairs at the bottom (basically cutting at the outer inscribed ring) and it should be printable in 2 - 4 printer plates, but l...

Hi everybody,
there is a new entry to the poll: the Gate the the Sea of Stars. I have a specific portal design in mind that I want to create for the end session of the campaign I am currently GMing. The party is going to face the BBEG as they try to summon Valravn, an ancient crow themed god, from this portal (if it sounds familiar, it appeared in the Viking Stave Church released almost exactly one year ago, although with a slightly diff...

there are two smalls sets now uploaded to your library: the Hunter Hall's Trophy Heads and the Ox & Horse expansion to the Welcome Pack carts. The heads are a small addition that give a bit more customizability to the Hunter Hall's interiors (they need to be glued to a wall, obviously). They also come with empty "wall supports" so that you can make your own trophies in the slicer by kitbashing them with...

There is more to this set that it may seem at first: it has a lower rock and wood level that is compatible with the Outpost set, an upper wooden level that comes with an OpenLOCK and non-OpenLOCK variant in case you want higher walls for a "hall-like" room (check the ...

Hi everybody,
these are a couple of work in progress shots of the Hunters' Hall! This set of OpenLOCK tiles will have bottom stone & wood tiles, upper wooden tiles, interior options and options for a terrace (or multiple). It will be modular enough that you can build many, many different buildings with the same pieces, and it should have enough options to make them different, although clearly in the same style. You c...

Hi everybody,
I am posting the Poll for August while I finish the pre-release Hunters' Hall renders. As I was looking at the entries and considering new ones, I decided to stick with these for this round. I really want to make all of them, and so I figured I'd give them more light by leaving the list as it is!

I made three figurehead variants for the front of the ship: a plain one, one with a unicorn head (silly but I like it) and one with an eagle/winged decoration. These parts slot in the very front of the ship, but you may need a bit of knife work in case they or the front of the ship itself are bent in print. Also, these are meant for the front of the upper ...

In the first render you can see the "ground" structure - although you could argue that it also work as some kind of fortified ship. In the second, the modular ship is presented in all of its vertical (very WIP) glory!
Since upper and lower levels of the ship were done in previous months I had to find a good way to incorporate the extra level in the current pr...
