This is an interesting one. He has a few samples of his work on places like Thingiverse but for the majority of it, you will need to sign up on Patreon. However, unlike most Patreon subscriptions for miniatures, you don’t get a monthly pack of minis starting the month you sign up, you get access …

Up until now, the miniatures I have been looking at have been physical miniatures that I ordered from various companies. I finally bought a 3D Printer this year, an Elgoo Mars 4, and have started getting STL files and printing off minis. Naturally I started off with Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica miniatures. The first …

One company I ordered from and forgot to do a post about is Tangent Miniatures. I recently did another order from them, so I’ll cover them now. The miniatures arrived in a nice little box, then in several bags within the box. There wasn’t any extra padding, but they arrived in great condition so no …

It’s been over eight years since I last posted about buying miniatures, but I haven’t stopped, and I’ve even finally started painting some of them. In my original post about Crooked Dice Game Design Studio I mentioned that they didn’t have anything that looked like Viper Pilots. Well, that changed at the end of July …
Another set I did about a year ago was The Original Series Bridge Crew from Modiphius. The miniatures have their usual great level of detail, but I will say that I don’t like the Scotty miniature all that much, just the pose on him doesn’t seem right. I don’t recall him doing a lot of …

I will happily admit that I completely stole this character idea from a friend of mine. He had the idea to have an NPC Captain of a ship in a wheelchair and not able to personally go on many Away Missions. Now, when I originally went looking for a miniature for a character like this, …

I picked up one box of Star Trek Adventures Miniatures: Borg Collective from Modiphius when they first came out and I acquired a second box as part of a trade I made for some packs of Middle Earth Cards but I didn’t get around to painting them until recently. There were two main reasons for …
I’ve managed to accumulate quite a few character miniatures for Star Trek in the last year, and still have a few left to paint. In my quest to find a good way to transport them to and from games, I settled on cases designed for Essential Oils. Initially I was using some smaller cases, but …
I picked these miniatures up a couple years ago from Hasselfree Miniatures while looking for Battlestar Galactica characters. It has been more years than I care to figure out since I last painted any character miniatures, and I didn’t want to start right off the bat with the expensive sets of Modiphius Star Trek Adventures …

I recently ordered some very tiny Battlestar Galactica Fighter Minatures from Starfighter Shipyards. For Vipers I ordered the “TOS Vipers”, “Scorpion Early TOS Viper”, and I also got what looks like the “TOS Cobra Interceptor” although I don’t recall ordering that one and the page didn’t list it as being available at the time. For Cylons I …
