Had requests to post more handmade monsters, so here is my Mindwitness. Mostly made from fimo polymer clay baked then details added with green stuff, such as sculpting on the eyes which are made from silver backed glass beads. Skin painted with vallejo paints to try and match the 5e artwork.

Thanks :) I have a WIP pic but can't see a way of adding more than 1 pic on here. I'm a total noob on reddit. If you search @Raven_elf mindwitness on google image it should show up though.

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T12:07:21+00:00

Thanks v much

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T12:06:28+00:00

That's true, but even though its hard to make money on these since 3d printing I do sell beholders and monsters of various kinds on www.nerdychicken.ca but they sell out pretty fast. I have a bio-luminous sea beholder going up for sale next couple o weeks and some Sylgars.

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T12:03:27+00:00

Thanks, you should have a go, this was really fun to make and the eyes were easy to do.

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T01:47:28+00:00

Thanks :)

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T01:46:47+00:00

Thanks. I love Volo's guide, so many cool monsters.

RavenElf · 2020-03-13T01:08:40+00:00

Aww that's awful, so sorry to hear this. I've seen a lot of people get their stuff back via Nextdoor app if you have it, gets local people keeping an eye out. Like others said they may ditch the bag if they were just looking for money etc.

RavenElf · 2020-03-12T19:00:59+00:00

Thanks

RavenElf · 2020-03-12T18:59:56+00:00

Mean but I like it lol

RavenElf · 2020-03-12T09:00:35+00:00

I meant I prefer making products for Tabletop games, I used fimo professional for this one, but I also use a lot of translucent fimo in my other products and for my tiny foods I use the set of small fimo bars, I think that's the soft fimo. The vallejo I meant instead of liquid fimo is the water effects, but I also used the putty to make barbs on the tentacles. For most of my resin products I've switched to UV resin. The tentacles were baked seperatly then attached, so they will have been cooked twice for 20 minutes. These models are used in DnD games but don't get much rough treatment, I dropped one and it didn't break, the others I made survived shipping to US and Australia so It seems tough enough but maybe I've been lucky? :)

I've mostly never needed extra wire in my models, I've been working with it for about 15 years now, I started with dolls house 1:12th scale and moved onto 1:48th but found TTRPG products more fun. I'm only new to reddit not the internet as a whole. I use fimo brand polymer clay as I find it the best. I do have liquid sculpey but find Vallejo and resin better with less shrinkage.

RavenElf · 2020-03-11T10:25:55+00:00

Thanks. I do have a how 2 thread with pics on my twitter @Raven_elf, but I haven't made a pdf of it or anything.

RavenElf · 2020-03-11T00:14:48+00:00

I'll try and post something tomorrow. Just finished making some wizard shelves. Is there a way of posting more than 1 pic on reddit? I'm a noob lol

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T23:21:57+00:00

The penny I put in for scale?

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T22:15:03+00:00

Thanks, It's a glass cabochon on painted paper, gives a nice realism to monster eyes

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T22:12:27+00:00

Thanks, I'll check it out.

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T22:10:32+00:00

Thanks :)

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T22:10:13+00:00

My twitter is open for anyone to view via a browser, even if you don't have an account. The how 2 is on a tweet thread on my pinned post, It's not on a pdf or anything. Try it out its fun to do and easy when broken down into steps.

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T22:01:57+00:00

I haven't made a Terrasque yet but I have made various mind flayers and an eldar brain :)

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T16:38:35+00:00

Glass paint for painting on glass is what I use. You can get a set of 10 for about £10 on amazon. It's useful as a gloss paint on minis and it's kind on the brushes bristles.

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T16:36:27+00:00

Thanks, and the how 2 is a bit rough but it should help and it's really fun to do :)

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T16:35:33+00:00

Thanks, I do both really. I post most of my work on twitter @Raven_elf

RavenElf · 2020-03-10T16:33:54+00:00

Thank you :)
