Ho ho ho! 'Tis the season for some FREE Junji-Ito Uzumaki nightmare ornaments! Version with / without Santa hat, supported versions included.
Please consider thanking me by donating a couple bucks to Safe Passage .... I have volunteered here many years ago and the work they do in Guatemala is really great!
(model file links will post at 10AM PST tomorrow, 12/2!)
I give an overview of the December lineup in the video below:

Here's a link to the patreon livestream sculpting video. David B. joined me for the livestream and I had fun bouncing off some of his suggestions to generate a couple of quick sketches / designs of potentially future sculpts!
Hoping to do more of these streams with Patrons soon!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS! There will be a LIVE STREAM for Patrons this Sunday (11/15) at 12pm Pacific Time! I'll be sculpting in VR - Patrons (you will receive a LINK) are invited to tune in and chat with me live on discord / comment while you watch. Together, we will generate a couple cool monsters!
This is part of the December theme: "Patron Appreciation Month." Yeah yeah, not as thrilling on the tongue as "Abyssal Planeswalking Arachnids" or whatever BUT, this month, I'll...

Hey everyone!
-Firstly, check out this awesome stat sheet that my friend Emma and I made. She created some pretty cool mechanics that you could use for the Soul Spire. This file is completely free and you are welcome to share it; I'll be posting it everywhere to get some feedback and see if people would like to see more of this kind of thing for my original monsters.

Returning back to my "normal programming" for November. Here are the first sculpts for the Eternal Ocean. This is a really fun VoidRealm to explore! I am finalizing supports and test printing now.... There are lots of renders in this post, as I'm trying a couple new looks for the branding :)
Here's a video preview where I show turnarounds in Zbrush and discuss specs / details:

Thanks to everyone in helping me reach my Patron Growth Goal - enjoy these Seer Snakes as a free bonus STL! They're in the monthly downloads folder.
If we reach 85 Patrons before the end of the month, you'll find out what emerges when a Seer Snake nests inside one of the Twisted Corpse Piles ;) So spread the word, and thanks as always for your support!
-----------------------
I am starting to include pre-supports for Patrons on these Monster Manual files. This will save you a lot of setup time, but as always, double check supports with your machine and make any adjustments.

Hey everyone,
We achieved the Patron growth goal I set for this month (woohoo!!!), so I've added two Twisted Pile variations to your downloads folder! (POST with links here) The two additional piles are in the "Twisted Piles" folder now.
I designed them so that they can be placed near each other to create creepy paths for characters to walk through!
The next Patron growth goal is to hit 70 Patrons...

Hey everyone,
Got some awesome submissions for this first ever painting competition. It makes me so happy to see everyone's interpretations of the sculpts - wow! Remember, there will be two winners - one random, and one chosen via Poll. The Poll will go live this weekend; browse the photos now to see the various submissions.
I hope I gathered all the submissions. If you had sent me something and it's not...

Some of you may have seen this terrain piece snuck into the "Suulmerak" folder of this month's release! This is a giant statue depicting the Great Hero, who fell to the corruption of the Spiral and Suulmerak, Archdemon of the Vortex.
The "Fallen Hero" is a terrain piece and thus does not have a supported version, but printing him upright in resin requires very few supports. *If you print him to-scale, then Suulmerak's lower right hand should rest just above it, and you can create a smal...

Hey, everyone, a few reminders and logistics:
1. PLEASE SHARE VoidRealm Minis with others! If we get just 4 more Patrons, I can release this Twisted Pile set (3 variations, including the one released at launch!)
Patron growth is so critical to making this whole thing sustainable, and allows me to spend more and more time creating original minis for you all. The best thing you can do is to spread the word about my brand to others who may be interes...

The links for the Spiral Horrors are live! Patrons can download them HERE
I hope you enjoy these. Junji Ito has always been a big inspiration of mine since I read Uzumaki back in 2007. I was thrilled that you guys wanted to go on this journey with me and churn up some spiral monsters. I had so many ideas - too many for a single month's worth - that I'm thinking about launching an eventua...

...Announcing my Loyalty Reward system for VoidRealm Minis! Continued patronage from you all is the #1 way I can build this to a sustainable level, and I really wanted to create a way to give a special thanks for your continued support.
Patrons who have been with me since the beginning (and already have everything) received a message earlier with a link to the first Loyalty Reward - "Embracer: Protector of the Third Gate."
For this first round, I'm bending t...

Really excited to share with you guys the initial lineup for Uzumaki!
1. Suulmerak: Archdemon of the Vortex (cosmic horror) - the mac-daddy of the month! I'm still spec'ing him out, but he will be LARGE. Back view and closeup of his tail are attached to the post.
2. Screamer variants (small) - similar to the free file earlier this month, but these have modular ball joints on the heads and arms so you can mix and combine! There are two heads, two bodies and two sets of arms.

Suulmerak, Archdemon of the Vortex, will anchor the set of Spiral Horrors.
The rest of the lineup will be:

-Soul Spire
-Snail Woman
Full images and details coming later this week! Patrons, hop on the discord server if you're not already, as I usually post in advance over there....
2020-09-22 16:37:27 +0000 UTC View PostHi, everyone!
Let's do a painting contest! This is open to the public. Rules are simple:
DEADLINE: October 1st
PRIZES: 1 free months' Patreon + 1 custom monster design to your specification, to become a permanent edition of the VoidRealm Minis line!*
TO ENTER: print and paint anything from the VoidRealms line. Tag @VoidRealmMinis wherever you post, or email me your image (voidrealmminis@gmail.com)

These are simpler files and are good practice for folks looking to improve their support skills (picture attached to this poll)
Please vote on what free DND mini I should sculpt next!

Download the Candelabra Mimic HERE !
I had fun with this one... original cherub statue is a Scan the World object from MyMiniFactory, then manipulated a bit and layered with the mimic mouth. Will eventually be free to the public, but as a Patron you get early access as a thank-you for your support :)
Stay tuned for a couple of smaller, easier to print Mimics...

Thank you all SO MUCH for your support thus far. Here are the monsters for September!
*All monsters will come pre-supported - my goal is to launch the supported versions at the same time as the regular files, on or before the 3rd of September:
1. Mithril Dragon (huge) - this beast is inspired by the Mithril Dragon introduced in DND Spelljammer. He's guarding a small pass through the mountains and has a mace-like tail to attack with. About 150mm tall, prints in several p...
