Lafig Miniatures Space Forbans Kickstarter wrapped last week. 22nd(!) campaign, still channelling pre-grimdark Rogue Trader when space pirates looked like 2000AD nightclub refugees. Forbans, were pirates that were too piratey for other pirates... #Scifi #Grimdark #oldhammer http://l.d20.ninja/uDth5b

Five colorful 3D-printed miniatures stand in a row, each depicting unique characters from a sci-fi theme. From left to right, they include a blue-skinned figure with a skull face, a green-clad character with a beard, an orange-suited figure holding a weapon, a blue and gray character aiming a gun, and a yellow-clad figure. Above them, the title "SPACE FORBAND" is displayed prominently, along with the text "STL and 3D printed miniatures" below.

Need more grimdark books with manipulation of reality.
Love everything Michael R Fletcher has done and need more.
All suggestions welcome.

A very brief introduction of Nicolas "Niko" Grigg, the protagonist of my current WIP Making Monsters.

Niko is not a hero and he's no stranger to Hellgate, an island turned maximum security prison. More info about how he managed to leave will be added to a future post 🌝

This post also contains a short list of characters with the same vibe as him. Which one is your favorite?

INTRODUCING NIKO GRIGG, THE PROTAGONIST OF MAKING MONSTERS

A rusty background with hexagonal shapes. The picture includes the artwork depicting the MC of Making Monsters by Freddie A. Clark, Niko Grigg, a beefy, heavily tattooed man in his thirties, wearing leather clothes and spikes. He has short blond hair, light blue eyes, and a cigarette in his mouth. He joins his hands in prayer in a mocking way as he stands against a wall full of graffiti. Angel wings are painted on the wall behind him. The artwork is by the Italian artist Martina Belli.

AGE: 37
OCCUPATION: Benandante
GENDER: Male
SPECIES: Nephilim
CRIMINAL RECORD: Drug possession, disorderly conduct, vandalism, drunk driving, public intoxication, arson (formerly jailed for this crime, then released)

A rusty background with hexagonal shapes. The picture includes photos of a few characters: Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher, Snake Plissken from Escape from New York, Dante from Devil May Cry, Gabriel De León from Empire of the Vampire.

The title reads: CHARACTERS WITH THE SAME VIBE AS NIKO

Cubicle 7's Thirst of Three sends your party into the Great Forest to find a missing contact in a remote village where isolation breeds superstition and something worse. Ancient traditions, wary locals, horrors in the trees. Very County Wicklow, 1986. #WFRP #TheOldWorld #Warhammer #grimdark http://l.d20.ninja/hcvYEN

The image features the title "Warhammer: The Old World Roleplaying Game" prominently displayed in bold, stylized lettering, with "Roleplaying Game" in a contrasting red font. In the background, a dark forest setting is depicted, with various characters, including a mounted figure and others wielding weapons, suggesting a tense and adventurous atmosphere. The overall tone conveys a sense of mystery and danger, aligning with the folk horror theme of the new scenario, "Thirst of Three."

Hola a todos.

#Grimdark hits different when the infrastructure around you is crumbling too. Gale Force Nine adds Castograd to Gothic Sector. Pre-painted ruins for skirmishes. Fuel storage, hab blocks, warehouses. Still filing under sci-fi. For now. #miniatures #scenery #scif #wh40k https://l.d20.ninja/y6ftamv8

Recently got a decent camera! Previously taking photos with my phone, now I'm sporting a used Nikon D3200 I got on the cheap! So I thought I'd practice with taking some photos of old minis that needed to be retaken and added on here.

Here's my Mordheim Mootlanders! Missing one Thief with a broken spear, I've run this band in a LGS campaign, NEMO25, and won Ratsink! a Mordheim event at Adepticon last year with em. I'll be pulling them out again for this year's LGS campaign with a fun new Ogre I'll be painting up for 'em.

More photos to come as a catch up on my backlog with this camera, and hopefully improve my lightbox.

My second book has been printed. I am quite happy with it. 49 chapters. Each one illustrated. I know it will have very little reach, but I still feel quite happy to have passed that milestone. I am now working on editing together E-Book versions of my two books. This is a harder job. It is a completely different formatting style, and word processing programs (libre office) are as pleasant to work with as they always have been when it comes to formatting. Nonetheless, I will get there, and soon I will have ebooks available for everyone.
