So a friend of mine introduced Hero Forge to me a few weeks ago and I gotta admit I'm addicted. I've started spending hours creating miniatures for my game nights. Has anyone else made any cool characters with this or any similar sites?

Post em if you got em. Pic related is my Monk for 5E. Gonna dump some more to get the thread started.

Oh boy, do I EVER. Meet Huygens "Hogar" Von Oberwald, half orc from his mother's side who was a scullery maid in a wealthy human businessman's estate. Having sired no other children, the businessman took Huygens as his own and raised him on books and fencing lessons. Despite the lad being thick as a brick, and twice as clumsy, his memory retention, together with his natural half orc strength and knowledge of etiquette in high society fueled his desire for adventure.

I messed around with the Half Orc setting to see if I could squeeze him into the most poncy outfit I could find.

Also, here's a Dwarven Bard I made to adventure with my Half Orc Ranger/Fighter, his name is Angus McCartney, and his lute hath bin bless'd by the Gods of his mountain. The strings forged of a magic metal that doth resonate with the lodestones to cry music that make the valkyries weep.

Also the party cook. Hence the saucepan for a hat.

She can't tell her sisters who they're allowed to show their tits to, but she'll sure as hell try.

I use PowerPoint for when we meet in person. its easier for the players to wrap their heads around and demonstrate/sell the game to them and it encourages group discussion about the game, the characters and the setting.

I put the extra work in because I want my players to understand the game and have a good time that's all.

You're quite full of yourself. At any point did you realize that maybe people who might be interested in your game don't want a fucking lore-dump before they've even gotten into it, and have them trapped by social convention for an hour+ while you ramble on?

Just send them a fucking email, goddamn.

I had to stop and rename the files once I found them so my player's names weren't in them. I had asked each player what their favorite color was and that wound up being used as the basis for how I plan to paint them.

This player has a black Dragonborn and liked blue. The character is from near the mountains so I'm thinking blue hide with white on the little details/fluffy part sounds... arctic-y?

Both of my elven people liked dark/royal purple so that's probably going to be the robes. Thought of trying to use yellow/gold to do the accents on the robe, if I could afford the paints, but I'm not sure if that would look nice or not.

Also, shoutout to the WIP generals on tg- I stole someone's recipe for flesh tones on there that I want to try, and my FLGS pretty much just sells the citadel paints.

Last is the Gnome (though we actually have a fifth player who joined after I ordered everything). The Gnome's player loves orange. I couldn't think of what to put in his hands (he's a vampire so he doesn't really use weapons, just a ki focus) and they looked weird empty in most of the poses, so I just added alcohol (mugs, steins, whatever, that were added aren't pictured, sorry). I figured the player would love that. I'm probably going to paint it like normal black and white dress clothes but with a bright orange cloak, tie, and boots.

(Oh right, classes!)

In my opinion not really. they jack the price up a 30 mm mini is 99 bucks. they look pretty that's for sure but if I design my custom super special character waifu/husbando miniature to use I want to either paint them or get them painted and to me the premium plastic is the best. its not the most durable of all the materials but its decent and it shows the detail and the paint adheres to the mini better.

It looks like the only differences are the shoes and left hand. Barefoot villain is too distracting. Skull looks better than skull-flame. I was originally going to say the skull-flame looked a little better with the skull mask than the skull, but the more I look at it, the more skull looks better than skull-flame.

I'd go with number one.
