2018 Pogre's Miniatures and Models - A BIG finish to the year with The Wizard's Tower!

[Jhaelen]

A group of crows is called a murder. So I figured a group of Kenku are called a murder... These miniatures are by Reaper - they call them Tengu.

Interesting. In the Guild Wars CRPG they were also called Tengu. I always wondered about that because to me they were clearly D&D's Kenku.

Halloween Wraith and Cyclops

The Wraith is a Reaper figure I recently got free as a bonus for ordering the Kenku and some other figures.

Semi-interesting story about the Cyclops - The figure is a 25th Anniversary D&D figure, I think it was sculpted by Chaz Elliot, but I may be off on that. Anyway, back in 2002-2003 when I was cranking out a lot of Hirst Arts dungeon pieces and posting the pieces on my old ENWorld thread. I received an email from Monte Cook saying he was wondering if I wanted to trade some figures for a Hirst Arts dungeon piece. I agreed and he immediately sent me a bunch of nice old metal D&D figures, including the Cyclops. I did not fulfill my end of the bargain for a while, but ended up sending him some custom made dungeon cells made from Hirst Arts. He sent me a really nice email thanking me for the trade and was extraordinarily gracious about how long it had taken me.

I have that model! He's my wizard when I play Frostgrave with orcs and goblins.

Sweet paint job, better than mine.

Sculpted and Painted Intellect Devourer

I needed an intellect devourer for today's game. So I sculpted and painted one. I also used the mindflayer my 15-year-old son sculpted and painted in the encounter.



Our pair for the encounter:

I have had this Reaper figure for a long time. I painted her up and put her on ebay.

I remember way back in the late 80's at a game, we needed a few intellect devourers. It just so happened that someone had brought a bag of cheese popcorn as a snack and a few pieces of popcorn looked almost exactly like the little buggers so we used them.

Toothy Dungeon Monsters

I'm in the midst of running Dungeon of the Mad Mage and I needed some dungeon critters. These figures are all Reaper Bones.

First up, a dungeon worm that will serve a number of roles in the massive dungeon:




Another toothy denizen:


There is a fungus among us! (Fungi actually)
