Thanks for these Danny. One of these days the dice gods may favor Epic Adventure Miniatures. To say that it is tough to compete in this community as an artist is an understatement for sure. The promo around 17:46 was a response to sampler STL Patreons. Where in most cases the STL Sampler would ask the artist to donate several sculpts for "exposure" and then do very little of it. In some cases the Samplers would require the artist to pay a monthly subscription to have the option of participating in the sampler. Quite often the sampler does not provide a link back to the artist and very little information if any is divulged about the artist. When we questioned the people running the sampler as to how this benefits the artist the response was usually the artists knew what they were getting into. So a collective of independent artists took it upon ourselves to try and promote each other without asking the artist to pay for a subscription or donate a sculpture. Just using our human capital to share the spotlight with other artist's work that we admire. Much like what you have done with this series. Thank you again for promoting independent artists and the unique takes they have on this hobby we all love so much.

The community of RPG/ war gamers has some of the most creative and artistic people i've seen! Well done! Colossal Miniatures is the one to check out for me.

You're a champ Danny, always looking out for the community!

I've been a subscriber of Colossal Minis from their first month. I admit his retro-fantasy style isn't my favorite but I am subbed almost exclusively for his survivor series and the Ripply model was a request of mine so he's pretty open to ideas. I just printed Cheech and Chong weekend before last.

I backed Colossal Miniatures off of this. Amazing deal and so my style.. thank you heaps for pointing them out errr over a year ago :D

Was surprised with the number of ads in this video I didn't get the one for Lost Adventures 2 😝 Thanks for another great one!

A quick shout for Dragon Workshop, who has a very reasonable Patreon and is systematically making the terrain and buildings for Curse of Strahd in addition to generically useful terrain, buildings and minis. I'm probably going to have to shell out on DriveThruRPG for the back-catalog items like Death House. Might need Aether Studio's "Atzlan" set. One of the Patreon tabletop designers I currently support (Archvillian) released a sweet Egyptian/Sekmet themed set for June, and those temple terrain bits would be mighty handy for running a tomb-crawl. Also, I'm considering Goon Master, not for my table with my friends, but for my nieces and nephews (and godchildren), who I've been teaching simplified 5e. I think the stylized, cuter minis would not only be great for the kids in terms of style, but the chunky shape would mean they'd be a little more durable, especially if FDM printed with higher infill. Plus, having the minis on the table with a grid makes it a lot easier for kids to conceptualize distance in combat.

Great video, love what you do for the community.

Great idea! Really fun and entertaining... If I could suggest one fairly new Patreon that I am in love right now, would be Pop Minis! Specially if you are a 80's and 90's pop culture fan, these are some amazing minis!

This is awesome. Love supporting the little guy

these guys are really talented, one thing if you can add to the format is say if they have a merchant tier right now that's what I'm looking for for our store

Geargutz is the man for 40k orks. My warboss of my army is a Geargutz sculpt.

Golden Thief Studio is a very small Mexican Studio that is just starting, they have a recent Space Marine Hamsters chapter vs Cosmic Horrors campaign

Nice. Really enjoyed this one.

That tshirt decal is terrifying.

Hey Danny, I think it'd be great if you would do this but for specific types of models. Like the best dragons from patreons with under 500 subs or the best mindflayers, trolls, giants, or goblin bands. I think it'd be great for GMs who are trying to build up their mini collections.

This is a very good list Daniel!

Modern Survivors is more pup culture minis. There are a whole bunch of recognizable characters from many IP, and some real, over the many releases. I guess you could play Snoop Dog if you wanted, but I always imagined these would be more for painters. Black Magic Craft did a vid with the character from Falling Down, by Colossal. I wish they would do more public posts though, it can be hard to show off their work.

I get not re-selling the actual STL I purchased but I'm a little on the fence over whether the STL seller has any say over what I do with my physical prints. I've heard a bit on both sides of things but was curious what you thought on the subject.

It's the designers IP and when you buy the STL, you're really buying a personal license on use of that IP. Selling prints is still using that designer's IP. No different than buying a PDF and then selling copies that you printed.

A piece of advice that I can give these model makers, learn how to sculpt for fdm. I'm not saying they should exclusively sculpt for fdm, but at least offer some minis that can be printed with fdm. I don't even bother looking on patreon or kickstarted because I know it's all going to be stuff that can only really be printed with a resin printer and I haven't taken that plunge yet, and sure there are a lot of others like me.

As a design engineer I think it's always good practice to design for largest population, if you can design for FDM then you'll hit a larger market. Plus they will be good for SLA, if you can get away without supports(FDM) it should be good for SLA, of course there will be something's that are more suitable to DLP/SLA but it is good advice and appreciate seeing it to.
