I love the Dungeon Dwellers expansion! Now, I don't have a massive collection of minis as a new painter, so that may be a part of it. It seems like a great "starter set" and it has some sculpts with great character. Can't wait to dig into it! And every time they put out a new print (like the treasure dragon) I get more excited. 

 

It's definitely an awesome set for someone who hasn't many of these.

 

I already have that Owlbear and I have several of the others in metal already.

But I will wait, when she gets released I want that succubus in that set and the treasure dragon is very tempting as well.

^ Wholeheartedly agree, and am in a similar position.

I'm sad the treasure dragon is roughly 2" in diameter. I was hoping it'd be serviceable as a 3" "huge" dragon miniature for Pathfinder games. I already have one of each chromatic in Large thanks to DDM. It still looks really nice, though.

 

Just imagine how many massive dragons we're all going to have staring at us, waiting to be painted come April 2021!

I probably won't be buying nearly as many big dragons this time around, as I've already gotten 1 of each Chromatic in Gargantuan, and a colossal for Red and Blue, from prior KS. The ones this time look good enough to maybe make me regret getting Ebonwrath for my Black, but I'll probably try and restrain myself a little. I think I'll get one or two for conversion purposes, but that's about it. I was hoping to fill out my 3" huges, though. I don't have any huge chromatics except for a black with a sorcerer on his back at the moment. I think some of the dragons in the Core might work though. Was thinking if the Treasure Dragon also met the size criteria, then I'd be able to complete that size category, too. I'll be one or two short as is. C'est la vie.

I've tried digging up the post but am having trouble locating it. Can someone point me to the pictures of size comparisons/scale for the dragons in this KS? 

 

Updates ... 17 & 25 have scale images on a 1" gridded cutting mat, IIRC. Update 45 has pictures of some stuff with Sir Forscale, but not on a grid.

Don't you get a free one for the ones you sculpted yourself?

I would think that would be one of the benefits of sculpting.

Another dream shattered.

This was my idea too, but I think he's getting some free, my assumption would be he's getting a few to give away to others..?

I mean, we know Reaper and their service, I can't imagine it otherwise really.

Yeah, we get copies of our own sculpts whenever we want; but then I'd have to wait until they are available at retail.  I'll likely want these guys for ReaperCon next year, so  I bought one.

Ah, that's a relief.

 

To be honest I can't wait till I get my greedy paws on that Arakoth, and I also got the Goroloth and the Monsters which include the Catoblepass.

All yours I believe.

The equivalent to the reapermini.com/bones4 still doesn't exist, does it? reapermini.com/bones5 redirects me to the KS page. I think there was talk about making a similar picture hub for this KS and I feel like it's really needed. We're getting so many pictures (which is great!) but they're being posted on facebook, the KS updates, this thread or in the twitch stream, which isn't great for finding them again, 3 months later when making your selections.

Yep. Thanks for supporting me!

 

Truth be told, I already have a copy of Arakoth; I had to run a test print of my own to ensure that my fixes were really fixes before sending the files down to Reaper.  The print turned out really well, but used a lot of resin. :lol:  She's huge!
