Eldritch Bestiary : Choose your Monsters
🕑 Added 2020-08-04 23:03:24 +0000 UTCHi Patrons!
There are a lot of cool beasts that fall under the Eldritch Bestiary theme. Vote for your favorites! I'm not sure how many I will make since it depends how complex I make them. I know I will be making the top 3 at least! I went for more unique monsters. I've seen a lot of amazing beholders and mind flayers so I wanted to do something a bit different, but still within the theme.
The concept art is to give an idea on what I'll make. They will all look pretty different because I like to play with monster design. They will have the same core elements as shown in the pictures though. For example, The Great Old one would have wings and a tentacle face, but I'd likely change the proportions and textures.
Great Old One

Hound of Tindalos

Nightwalker

Gloon

Star Spawn Screamer

The Sleeper

Lord of the Black Lake

Me too :D

Hound would definitely be my choice, if I didn't so desperately need a good Nightwalker mini.

I am looking forward to this release!!

I am partial to the Hound of Tindalos and specifically the Gloon. Angels in D&D are already a power to be reckoned with; and I can easily see a story of an angel corrupted by powers from beyond the Sea of Stars, in the Spaces Between. I also believe the Star Spawn screamer could be a useful addition to any Old One's minions or Demonic Hoard. Lastly, the Sleeper could easily become a new Demonic Prince of sahuagin or the created god of a city of Kuo-toa. Sorry, don't mind me and my DM brain trying to come up with new story hooks based on your work Mia. Keep doing what you're doing, it is fantastic.

I also backed his kickstarter. I loved his style.

I got the Creatures of Cromsfell kickstarter and Leavon did a fantastic job of many of these, his Hound will take a lot of beating. But he didn't do Lord of the Black Lake, Sleeper or The Great Old One. He did Cthulhu and there is a lot of difference between Cthulhu and Old One, the head shape for a start and the skin pattern (which looks like a challenge). His Cthulhu is a real monster standing over 20 inches tall! His version of the Nightwalker was very different from the one you show and I think yours looks really good. Sorry for the long comment but I only have these models to compare with and it will be nice to see your interpretations.

Love that shadowy long boy!

I know!! I realized I could totally sneak it into this theme even though it was originally part of the undead lol So happy people want it~
M3DM
It's a cool one for sure~
I don't think I ever had a Hound of Tindalos mini, so that would be my choice
Samantha Applegarth
Yes! Nightwalker in the lead!

That's what the picture is for? https://c10.patreonusercontent.com/3/eyJwIjoxfQ%3D%3D/patreon-media/p/post/40103256/106e4078f7d14a44a4926c842a99fa27/1.jpg?token-time=1597811230&token-hash=B4hkGAFx31fztaj99JqTJIMJXpPz165Ym38uAnVJG7U%3D

Hahaha the Gloon is weird. It is a pile of demon slugs that create that handsome human statue to lure in victims.
scott busbee
i think it would help if you showed us what you think the lord of the black lake would look like
Charlotte Heilling
no. just no. LOL also, does Gloon have slugs for an arm?!
Yeah we have way too many cthulu models, I want some variety
M3DM
That's fair! That's why I scrapped the beholder and mind flayer.
M3DM
I'm excited for that one <3 Probably really going to lean into the "screamer" part!
Great Old One is cool and all, but it’s just Cthulhu, and he’s been done so many ways, I'd much rather see any of the others that aren't done to death.

That star spawn screamer looks amazing. I'd love to see what your take on it would look like 😁
