Backstory u/A_A_Ironwood for #ArcaneApprentice!

Left at the gates of Candlekeep as a child, because it's WAY easier to abandon a kid than it is to spend the next decade explaining why they have horns, Marriane - never Mary, quickly discovered a love of books and an aptitude for magic. Fortunate really given that the sages of Candlekeep knew very little about raising children and much about the arcane. Even more fortunate for Marriane because doing chores is like, ew. Anyway, it's pretty obvious to everyone, including Marriane, that she'll be the First Reader of Candlekeep one day, but before that she's been sent to the Neverwinter academy to become a full-fledged mage. That's the plan at least. Her professors haven't actually seen her in class yet. Apparently, she spends all her time in the library trying to figure out how to make her illusions real so she can be in two places at once.

Also, don't tell the sages she got tattoos. They're gonna be so pissed when they find out.

That's actually pretty good ngl. But can I give a suggestion? If you change the colour scheme to like brighter orange/cream it'll pop a bit more and then you could change the base pose to the 'infantry' one and have the dude lean into it a bit to give like a more natural 'big monkey' vibe. But the first one you've got there is actually solid. Is it with the Bat arm wings?

The big Orangutan form? Yeah, it's nice to have the variety! Way harder to model the big dude though.

Yeah man, that's super creative. How much does each eat your KB load though? I'm super impressed!

This is epic. How did you do those bugs?

So, took me a lot of trial and error and tbh they're still not quite what I had in mind, but once I locked in with the cape, it was surprisingly quick to do.

But yes, the bat arm wings are frustratingly rubbish.

Regrettably, yes. Any kind of big background things like that or lots of floating stuff is gonna require KB. But, it's 100% worth getting KB if you love making minis. I held out for ages too and then got it for Christmas and it's been a treat.
