I painted miniatures professionally before I started sculpting. Here are 50 new female character minis I made to actually be painted.
I spent years painting miniatures professionally before I moved into 3D sculpting, and TBH that background shapes everything I make now. I sculpt the way I wish things had been sculpted for me back when I was painting them.
I work on a line called DnD is a Woman: grounded female RPG characters, 3D printable. I make sure they have enough surface detail and clean separation to be satisfying to work on.
Volume 1 was 2022, and the community that formed around it has guided what we sculpt every month since. Volume 2 is them asking for more: 50 new characters, and every model ships in 28/32mm tabletop and 75mm display scale, so if you want a bigger canvas the file's already there.
I'd love to see what people do with these, honestly that's half the reason I'm posting. It launches on MyMiniFactory soon; you can sign up on the pre-launch page, and early folks get a bonus model and a launch discount.

Ask me anything about sculpting for paint, the scales, or the presupports.
