Meet a Mi-Go, one of the alien races created by H. P. Lovecraft in his Cthulhu Mythos.
These ocean-dwelling creatures are straight from H. P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos.
Amphibious in nature, they are capable of leaving the sea for brief periods of time to interact with their human allies or to attack their enemies. Cthulhu investigators need to be wary of these creatures in coastal areas around the world.
Worshipers of Father Dagon and Mother Hydra. They live in their watery cities deep beneath the waves.
These 25-28mm scale figures stand somewhat taller than the average human. The sculptor has done a nice job of capturing the inhuman sentience of the creatures.
These miniatures can be used in any Call of Cthulhu™ game. They could easily appear in many other horror, fantasy and science fiction games, both role-playing and table top wargames.

Adventuring in the cold fantasy world of Frostgrave™ requires hardy characters. In addition to the need to be skilled in the normal combat and arcane arts, the travelers crossing the chilly ruins must be prepared to deal with the frozen climate. Heavy winter clothing is a must, but not so bulky as to prevent the wizard’s arcane incantations or the fighter’s deft weapon skills. Here are a few adventurers who appear to be up to the task.
The Wizard, leader of the party. His cloak and robes keep him warm in the gusty chill as he directs his hirelings. Yet his staff is easily wielded.
The Apprentice, seeking to learn everything the Wizard is willing to teach him. All the while lugging around whatever magical tomes his master may require.
The Ranger, skilled at traveling the frozen countryside. Cloak, padded leather armor, tall boots all aid in his journey. His trusty bow always ready to deter any foe in the snow mists.

A bit of a departure from our usual fare. Although not exactly a miniature figure, these small scenery pieces are pretty related to our regular topic so I hope you find them of interest.
Treasure! Gold, gems, magical items! It’s what every adventurer hopes to find!
These custom-made painted scenery pieces can be used as objective markers for your 20-30mm fantasy tabletop war gaming such as Warhammer Fantasy. They can also be used in many role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons.
The base of each treasure measures about 1-1/4 inches (32 mm) in diameter. Here is one of the treasure hoards shown with a 25mm scale miniature to give you an idea of size.
These treasure piles and other miniature scenery pieces can be found at my store along with my painted figures. If you have an interest in miniature scenery and terrain, you can find much more information on my Universal Terrain blog.
Rat men populations can be found in many fantasy gaming worlds. These intelligent creatures form fairly complex societies. This individual is a shaman for his nest.
He carries a staff in his right hand. This is a symbol of his leadership position in his clan. The staff is adorned with various religious totems including an ancestral skull and a small metal bell.
Unlike the religious members in many human societies, the rat man cleric is not prohibited from the use of blade weapons in combat as proven by the nasty sword he wields in his left hand.
Rat men can provide interesting encounters in many fantasy role-playing games. In fact, for those game systems that allow it, why not include a rat man in your adventuring party of Player Characters for some different player interactions?

Let’s start off 2017 with this big nasty fantasy character!
Larger than man-size, Greater Orcs make for fierce opponents on the fantasy battlefield. Their size and strength often lets them simply overpower lesser fighters.
This Greater Orc warrior carries a sword and shield into battle. His shield is wooden faced with metal plates.
He wears studded leather armor over a chainmail coat. Additional protection in battle is afforded by his spiked helmet with chainmail side coverings.
He also carries a curved dagger in a sheath on his belt.
The sculptor has really captured the offensive and frightening character of this Greater Orc fighter with the primal battle roar coming from his wide open mouth.

A scroll tube hangs from her belt hinting at her spell casting abilities.

This 25-28mm scale miniature figure could appear in many fantasy role-playing game scenarios including Dungeons & Dragons® and Warhammer Fantasy®.
