The mini depicts a small, scruffy-looking goblin bard sitting on a stool and jamming out on a lute. The subject of the model has an adorable expression as they belt out a tune at the top of their lungs. Though less than an inch tall without the stool, Adam’s paint job on theDungeons and Dragonsmini shows phenomenal detail. The model itself was sculpted in Zbrush, printed on a Sonic Mini 8K 3D printer, and painted with speed paints and game color. The file for the sculpt is available for free on the Twin Goddess Miniatures’ MyMiniFactory page.
Twin Goddess Miniatures has over a hundred different sculpts available for purchase. With ideas ranging fromMonster Hunter-themed beast slayersand terrain pieces to orc magical girls and fantasy creatures in office jobs, Twin Goddess Miniatures has it all. He offers the 3D printing files for sale, as well as votes for future mini sculpt themes, on his MyMiniFactory, and physical figures on Only-Games.
Adam’s fellowDungeons and Dragonsplayers instantly fell in love with the goblin bard mini he made. Thoughgoblins get a bad reputation inDungeons and Dragonsas a low-level monster with a penchant for mischief and mayhem, the goblin mini is anything but. Many of the fans who saw it praised Adam’s talents and confessed the little goblin was more adorable than they expected.
