Hello everyone!

The winner of this month's Patron commission was Forest Troll Warband.

Patron Commission - February 2023 (Poll) | Imagine Minis on Patreon

Since it was not in the request the poses nor the variations I took the liberty of proposing some things.

First of all, these miniatures will be modular (I think that not all). Compared to the troll chieftain I will make some modifications, some additional wooden armor pieces and adornments to create some sort of variations. The hair will probably be different (even though most of them are using a mohawk).

Weapons: This is a really easy answer Ax... lol just kidding. Besides the Ax, I will make a Spear, bow, arrow, and wooden shield.

Glue on the back pieces: As an optional item, I will make a voodoo stick and the wooden shield, this way if you print a model mirrored and add this to the back it will look really different.

Poses: I picked 5 different poses on the internet and will probably create a similar pose on the models, not the same weapons (and effects). The only pose that I don't know how I will work with is the watcher, which requires a tactical rock and a wood on the side (you probably could replace the rock with a dead elf or something).

If you have any other requests or suggestions, please let me know in the comments below.

Best regards,

At least one female would be nice. Since Warcraft changed how Troll females looked to have a different model for WoW and even in art kept the older design, you could just do a different modular chest and head to use the same lower body and arms.

Imagine Minis

Humm. I will check this option. I don't think it's impossible. I already have a female troll sculpted therefore the base body shouldn't be that hard to adapt. What pose do you think would be good for her?

Thannak

Same as the males. Just another way to add variety, or as a player character.

Imagine Minis

Ah... I see. That way is completely out of the question, doing a female variant torso and head would change a lot the bounding box on the model, meaning that I would need to support another model, 2 hours per model, and in case of failure I would need to reprint everything, so this would add up too much work and would impact the month production. I can turn 2 or 3 into females but I can't make Female/male variations in the same pose.

Thannak

Oh, I just meant pose doesn’t matter. Not that it has to be the exact same or anything.

Mini Manatee

Amazing! Did not think they'd win but once again, pleasantly surprised!

Trolls be always good for comeback, mon!

Fraser

A 'Throwing' pose would be good, that way you can use either spears or axes and it'll be pretty modular.

Fraser

If I had to pick least favourite, it would be Watcher
