Say hello to a trio of "Troglodyte" boys from @reapermini

They're generic enough to fill in as sahuagin or kuo toa or even lizardfolk in a pinch. Evidently they have pretty good dental plans.

Happy gaming,… https://t.co/3xWgOka5ze

It's been a rough week at work, so I'm looking forward to an extended weekend to play some D&D and get this fella ready for the table.

Happy gaming, friends!

I love these shadows from @wizkidsgames #nolzursmarvelousminiatures Such creepy sculpts!

In the first pic, one has a gloss finish, tge other matte. In person the gloss appears darker; the matte has a bit of gray… https://t.co/03zPcVt2qS

I remember my first fight against bugbears. My wizard foolishly jumped from a ledge, sprained his ankle, and then had one of these brutes looming over him.

They are brutes, too--extra damage with their morningstars… https://t.co/EAgm5b66J5

Scenes from last night's game. The party stumbled across a "man of the cloth" and his body guards rumbling with a squad of orcs.

Turns out that "man of the cloth" might just be a cult member...

...maybe.

Happy… https://t.co/vDqtd69UwJ

In keeping with tradition, a party member rode the zombie beholder in last night's game. I love my Thursday group.

Happy gaming, friends!

I'll call this one "in praise of contrast paints."

I had a couple of harpies lying around with really bad primer jobs. I wanted them on my table for an upcoming game, so I decided to go 90% contrast paints after a… https://t.co/8ehBq3g3iW

Say hello to my undead friend. I really enjoyed painting this zombie beholder and love the final result. One of my groups killed a beholder a few sessions ago... I wonder...

Happy gaming!

I've expressed my love for spectators in the past. These strange little aberrations have had a special place in my heart since I started my D&D journey. They're not an absolute terror like beholders, but bizarre and… https://t.co/KdXhvlH5fb

A funny thing happened on the way to Oakhurst... my eight-year-old son and I smashed some twig blights while uncovering secrets of The Sunless Citadel today.

What's on your table?

Spiders... yech. This trio of creepy crawlies was printed a few years back by johnstockham and featured in the second D&D game I ever played (as our druid's wildshape). Happy to give them a quick table-ready… https://t.co/YRPfkK1VNK

One of my favorite DM tools are these cheapo craft organizers. There are much fancier varieties, but I grab these for about a buck each when there is a 50% off sale at a local hobby store and they work just fine. I… https://t.co/o6crliZOPF

[aaronpolson @aaronpolson]

I painted this pair of chain devils for a friend who wanted them to look a bit like tomb guardians from Tomb of Annihilation. I took full advantage of washes and their sloppy nature to add layers of blood and rust… https://t.co/xehyBzVGQp

[aaronpolson @aaronpolson]

Here's a monstrosity (as of 5e) we all know and love: the mimic. Disguising itself as an ordinary object--especially those likely to be touched (doors, chests, etc). It secretes a sticky adhesive to hold its prey.… https://t.co/zmdMMzwtDH

[aaronpolson @aaronpolson]

I still have this encounter in progress on the table after yesterday's cliffhanger. Something dark came from clay pot #3 when the party's druid smashed it... heh. I love cliffhangers.

Meet Lulla Bell, our party's minotaur bard for the Tomb of Annihilation. She's got horns and is all lady.

I love painting wizards. My wife laughed at me when I told her at breakfast this morning, but it's so true. This is Volderis Winterhand from @reapermini

I'm a pretty much low(ish) fantasy/sword and sorcery guy, so… https://t.co/l82bmFh57H

A few months ago, one of these nasties started scaling a wall with the party's rogue in tow. I love the idea of the roper as an evolved underdark predator... and the absolute shock when players realize how long they… https://t.co/GCulRWhqcO
