Magenta is a tough colour to photograph

Some progress pics:

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

He's such a cutie!

Too cool, though the rock pile is my fave. How about a trolin? That should be tough.

The progress pics made me realise how much more thought and work you have to put into these endeavours. Another good´n

Omg I just noticed I haven't commented ont his yet - fantastic . I love the little piddly arms...oh and my dad said it's "Excellent. Very good!" .

Man, we have to get the FTL guys to see these! Doug would be so chuffed!

Fantastic work again! What about a Slime Devil next? I suppose that one should still be one of the easier ones.

The giggler! The giggler!

Do all the champions!

nice work btw.
Did you burn the clay or is it not burned ?

It's air-drying clay, which is lovely to work with (and a lot easier, which is the main thing). I'd be pretty upset if I had to endure the problems that come from baking clay

I think I'm going to work my way through the monsters as they appear in the game. I've gone a bit out of sequence with this thanks to the worm and even missing the mummy, but I'm back on track now (working on the mummy at the moment). This will prevent me from going right to the flashier creatures and then losing interest in doing the less 'interesting' ones.

It also means I can put off doing the dragon for a long time, and by then I might have learned a few things

Blue-screens of these for use in a clone would whoop seven kinds of ass, even without animation. Are you planning some dungeon walls and items? "Clay Master!"

So ya gotta do the Mummy and the Blue Troll to catch up with yourself...then you gotta do the Ghost and Giant Wasp...hmm they may be a bit tricky...

You know - the original seed for this came from something slightly different, so it's funny you should suggest that, Tom.

I'm a bit of a tabletop game fan on the side. Real old-school dungeons, magic, monsters and dice stuff. Talisman, Dungeonquest, Heroquest - all that kind of thing. Anyway, I was tinkering around with the idea of translating one of my favourite videogames into a tabletop game, purely as a fun creative little hobby project. I'd whittled the options down to DM or Phantasy Star Online, and so that's where the initial idea of making miniatures came from - to make pieces for the game.

In the end I decided to go for the PSO option as the complete tabletop game project (I think as a multiplayer, more open-plan dungeon crawler it will be better suited), but I was so taken with the idea of the DM minis that I started making them anyway.

Mophus! Mophus!

That's not appropriate talk for this forum. There are children present.

I really need to put that on the censored word list!

Hmph..
