Happy Sunday and welcome to another weekly update! This week I got a few more miniatures finished up along with the Dollar Tree Merida that I converted into a statue of Eldrina, goddess of the hunt, from my worldbuilding exercise using ChatGPT.

In the deep forest, a goblin ranger confronts a giant spider near the statue of Eldrina, Goddess of the Hunt.
Another goblin from Fat Dragon Games. I need to count how many goblins I have at this point. The statue is the Merida from Dollar Tree mounted onto a lid from a cat treats container. Simple and inexpensive but adds to the table. The giant spider is a rubbery spider from a $1 pack of spiders you can get at any discount store. I mounted it to a wooden circle using E6000 and painted it with acrylic inks.

A city official makes arrangements with a cold-weather monster hunter.
The city official is from the Bones 5 Kickstarter and the warrior is a Brite Minis model.

A group of skeletons guards the Shrine of Orcus, Demon Prince of the Undead.
Here are some more skeletons. The skeletons with the shields and bow are from the Rune Wars board game while the rest are from Brite Minis. While I was adding these skeletons to the container, I thought I would take out all of the skeletons in the box and see how many I have:

There are 42 skeletons in the container from a variety of sources like Wizkids, D&D board games, 3D printed models, Rune Wars, Reaper, and even a HereQuest skeleton. That is not counting any skeletons that I have in my two undead Age of Fantasy Skimish armies (those are in separate army containers), plus I just gave a dozen unpainted skeletons to a coworker for her brother’s birthday (he wanted to start painting miniatures so I gave her about 50 miniatures that I had 3D printed for him to start).
If I finish up any new goblins this week, I will have to do the same thing with them and I believe that I have way more goblins than skeletons.
Keep on gaming!
