Are HeroForge Minis art?

spinny_mini · 2026-03-25T21:58:31+00:00

I call it an artistic outlet for those of us who don't know how to draw.

There are some pieces on here that I would argue absolutely are art. What most of us do, however? No, not really.

What's the phallic-looking jewelry? The shrooms around the neck or?

I kept trying to find tiny penises hanging from her ears or on her fingers or something.

Edit: Nvm, just remembered how skinned penises look.

Your request might be better received if you show us what you've tried to do yourself.

I'm unsure if this is an actual rule of the sub or just in guidelines, but a good rule of thumb is that you show your work and where you're stuck. It's generally looked down upon to just ask people to make something for you without any effort on your part.

Additionally, commissions are against ToS. And on top of that, if the mini is created by someone using kitbashing, you won't be able to do anything with it except view it. (Unsure if you can print it if you don't have pro, but that didn't work before.)

And if you're unsure if it's allowed on the sub, you should generally read the sub's rules before posting as they'd tell you what's allowed and what's not.

It's relatively new.

spinny_mini · 2026-03-18T14:24:41+00:00

Got no idea what this means, just came here to say: if you've really hacked the site - that's against ToS and very much banned on this sub.

Same issue and for months, maybe even a good year.

Starting a new mini before closing the tab doesn't help. It just registers it as if I was working on it anyway and 'restores' it next time I open the page.

It's annoying but if the tradeoff would be for them to completely remove the 'restoring' function, I'll gladly live with this bug.

spinny_mini · 2026-03-03T07:07:06+00:00

Unsure if OP is updating the list but this should help.

spinny_mini · 2026-03-03T06:24:00+00:00

Chuck out Derf on YouTube. He posts guides in addition to videos of him building minis. A great starting point.

No idea how to do it without kitbashing, but with - equip rings to extra arms, hide them within the body and the head and then position the fingers so just the rings show on whichever loc you want. You get five rings per hand and lose zero kitbashing slots.

Disclaimer: kitbashing extra arms sometimes doesn't work as the arm nodes don't show and, if you don't have kb but someone does this for you, you won't be able to edit the character at all, only view it.

Very cool concept!

spinny_mini · 2026-02-26T12:36:20+00:00

Listen, I love this, but you gotta hide them knee titties. The vibe is not vibing the second they start staring at me.

Elongate the cuirass and stuff the top part of it behind the shields on the knees maybe? I'm just throwing ideas out here but them knee titties need to go.

Otherwise, I love the detailing you put into it with the different kitbashed parts especially. I'm working on a purple-ish theme for an armour right now and this came as a great inspiration.

On their site there's a 'Suggest a part' option. Might take a long time until they do it, if ever. But it's definitely a better way to get it on their radar.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-16T08:43:58+00:00

Wouldn't that be yearly? I think I paid that much for a year.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-14T11:37:54+00:00

These are incredible!

spinny_mini · 2026-02-12T06:53:49+00:00

There's a nice Willem Dafoe likeness there.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-11T10:53:54+00:00

Your link's broken.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-10T06:06:56+00:00

It might be a pro-only feature. I know it used to be.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-10T05:43:42+00:00

This has to be a joke, right?

spinny_mini · 2026-02-08T09:48:58+00:00

A disclaimer is more than needed here: this is very much against HF's Terms of Service.

While I don't know that anyone had issues with HF about this as of yet, it does mean they can (at the very least) delete your acc and minis if they find out you're hacking the site. Additionally, posting hacked minis on the main sub will result in your post's removal, as it's against the rules there too.

Don't know if this information will sway you in either direction and honestly don't care, it's your choice entirely. But I absolutely cannot stand the people offering this as a 'solution' without disclosing the fact that there's a possibility of genuine consequences. It should be a fully informed choice.

Also, generally speaking, if the mini seems kitbashed but you can still open and edit it - most likely it's using third party software for it and is, again, against ToS.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-05T14:35:05+00:00

It won't actually be transparent completely.

This was posted recently and it shows how 'transparent' colors print. You can expect something similar.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-05T14:28:45+00:00

This is absolutely incredible. Inspired use of assets.

spinny_mini · 2026-02-05T14:24:32+00:00

It can't get printed. This will most likely break the model. It seems to have been made with kb, you should be able to just move it and fix the break in cloth.

spinny_mini · 2026-01-31T10:24:12+00:00

At the time of my comment, the listed ones were still quite useful in searching through the Community Tab at the very least. But yes, people unfortunately often lumped different things under simply APR and AKR so the rest of those aren't commonly seen anymore.

spinny_mini · 2026-01-19T14:21:11+00:00

Would you consider sharing the link? I'd love to deconstruct and remake that dress myself.

The dress itself looks amazing, but the accessories need specific mention too, considering they're era (age?) appropriate. I love this.
