Greetings friends! Katarina, my wife, and our graphic designer is testing some new content!

We are thinking to launch a new 5$ tier with only RPG module + paper minis and make them also part of the Warlord tier, so you guys can save on resin and not print all the models for the adventures in resin. What do you think about this idea?Cheers, Alexei

Paper minis test

Comments

Could work but it would be nice to color them in with photoshop or paint.

I fully plan on using paper minis for anything other than end/boss fights so this is a great way to stay thematic through the adventure fighting minions that look the same as the end fights minions and boss. It provides more tension to the group when I start pulling out resin minis instead of paper minis!

Alex Walsh

I love this idea tremendously.

I love this idea. I enjoy running the modules I have so far but can't find time to 3d print and paint every model to use them.

Luke

A great idea

AirwolfWilly

I am LOVING this idea. Hell. Yes. Please.

Sounds great! Don't have enough time to always print all the minis I need in resin, so that's a great way to use them anyways. Did that before with some of the pictures and as a little addition I created a simple model of a reusable paperminibase in Inventor to print in resin as a kickstand for the paper minis. Pretty useful to have them all in 30mm scale for example!

Alex Leasenby

Sounds great. If you format some as roll20 type tokens even better!

While it's not something I'd use often for my games, I support this 100%. To this day even with a 3d printer and a large set of terrain I've made, I still supplement my games with papercraft terrain. Having the option for standees is an equally useful tool, especially for minions.

It's awesome you like this addon guys! based on the comments well add a round base to all the models so you can cut them already with the proper round base! do you have any other suggestions?

Rosen

Sounds like a fantastic idea!

Makes sense to use the renders as paper options if a resin mini isn't time effective for a game session.

Gavin Butstraen

Paper miniatures are convenient if you want to bring a large collection to the table to improvise RPG sessions. Maybe you could also design some printable bases/stands to hold them. Nothing fancy, just a little basic piece you can shove the different paper minis in.

It would also be nice to have some paper terrain pieces, which i would even use in combination with the resin miniatures. Like those old school theatre plays which have flat & obviously artificial backdrops. Unrealistic, but possibly very cool. Maybe I'd even print them out in black & white.

Actually I think paper mini have limitation so that it can not show the fascinating models you sculped in 3d model. Just my opinion.

Theo Fontane

I get the idea but it's not for me. I like my 3D minis, to paint them and to have a somewhat wholesome experience when playing DnD. A paper version would just not fit in the picture and the paper simply doesn't represent your great models. I just hope this doesn't affect the monthly outcome of your work.

Jonathan Stockwell

I'm on the fence here, I have used papercraft minis in the past but now focus more on printing resin minis instead, even if I only do a basic zenital prime the 3d models add a lot to a game. Nothing wrong with having an option though, as long as it doesn't pull away from the wonderous models you make.

Diogo Melo

I would like the opportunity to just 2d print when there is not enough time for 3d printing, assuming these would be with the normal tier.

Joseph Sala

This is a great idea! Love the flexibility to use paper minis. I have used them before for some encounters, and they have worked great in our group. Resounding YES!

Christopher DiViaio

I think its a great idea, you'll be opening up your user base to people with lower budgets.
