December's poll result ! "Bandit ambush" theme won !

And here we are ! The "Bandit ambush"  have won the poll ! :D

This is a classic theme but we are happy to be able to offer our version, it will be really fun to do ! As usual, some of the minis will be pre-supported for resin (and can work in FDM from the recent tests done) , and the others will be supportless.

🔸 I (Mathilde) already have a scene in mind :

A merchant who is attacked by a group of five bandits, one of whom happens to be an ogre . All of them will be in a combat stance, except the merchant who will be begging for mercy. The bandits will also includes a dwarf(w),an elf (w), a tabaxi (m) and a human (m).

We will try to propose weapons variants/swapable hands for most of the bandits !



🔸 On my side (Jonathan), I'm planning scatters so you can create the road encounter! Road signs, side of the road walls, lanterns... And of course a cart of the merchant!


Let us know your suggestions if you have some, and please remember that we can't do every ideas you gave us haha, even though they are more than often great ones! Everything that we can't do stays noted for the future :D

Once again, please share our stuff around on social media and printing groups, it's the best way for us to keep doing what we do, and maybe grow a bit!

Take care friends ! <3

This was gonna be my suggestion also. I was curious, depending on how the cart was rendered, if you could make swappable "cartload" bundles? Examples like one cartload would be textiles like shirts and rolled up rugs and furs, another be gold bags, coffers, and artworks, a third maybe pottery and baskets, and last idea be livestock/exotic animals like pigs and small familiars and chickens in cage-like crates. Then these "cartload" loadouts could just slide into the back of the cart seamlessly so you wouldn't have to print the cart frame every time.

a hero on the outskirts perhaps a scout would be nice so it's not all NPC's. Some tempting merchant items to steal maybe?

Maybe these bandits are so brazen (they do have an ogre on their side) that they have attacked this merchant in some small town where he stopped to do some trading? Maybe there could be some townsfolk bystanders running for cover? Also, I would love to see a merchant to match the "Desert Tribe Set" from before. I blame that Tabaxi merchant with the fez. He is so shrewd of a trader that other merchants must travel far and wide to make a profit, even into dangerous bandit ridden regions.

Awesome, I can't wait!:D

Good idea!! I had in mind to do chest with clothes or whatever being thrown outside after everything has been stolen! Will do something in that range :D

How about some scattered "loot"? Maybe like a spilled bag of gold, or something like that?

Scott Gerstenberger

Trees are very time consuming, because of the foliage! I'll see, how it goes, no promise but I know I would like to do some at some points!

They might win next time or soon :D We're very excited for them too!

Yes! Ogre, and two of the bandits that aren't supportless will be!

Will they have modular weapons like gladiators did?

Sebastian Dzik

oooh... townsfolk was close-ish so I'm hoping that might be a future project. Glad about the bandit encounter :)

It would be great to get some trees with the scatter terrain.

Alexander Green

I beg you for a Kenku character once again. There has been so many tabaxis already :&lt;

Dragten

Right?! Poor kids!!!

“Won’t somebody think of the children?!” But bandits are gonna be rad as heck too!!!

Sean McInnes

Nice !

I love the ideas you have so far! Maybe a donkey/mule could be nice with the cart? I'm really looking forward to the ogre!
