Use them for a "Sorceror's Appentice" moment in the Wizard's workshop. It's nice to have models for Spell Effects. These coould be Spell Backfires. Or for a "When Furniture Attacks" encounter. For IHMN or FOKF games they could just be props in the lab. Fiendish Creations, etc.

These look great.

100% going to have to buy the girlfriend the Tsukumogami at some point.

How does the Bakemono scale with other 28mm models? I am looking for something to use as a KOW ogre.

Also random comment your Shaolin monks look fantastic. Do you have any intention of extending to other Martial arts?

Glad you like them :)

The Bakemono is 24mm approx to the eye line, so he is about shoulder height to human sized 28mm figures probably a bit small for an ogre more goblin sized I would say

Yes I would love to do some more martial artists in the future, not sure when though as I have other things in the works at present

I see the Tsukumogami as a bit of quirky fun and if they prove popular might ask PF to do some more as he loves doing the Japanese themed figures

As to how you use them I think they are best used a some type of spirit which could either help or hinder players relative to the type of object they are & I think this ties in quite well with the actual Japanese myths

You've created some VERY COOL & IMAGINATIVE pieces...the Wizard has a Rinsewind look to him. GREAT WORK!

Yeah a little small for what I am after. Give me a shout if you make some larger Japanese Mythical creatures.

The little guys just remind me of something straight out of a Ghibli film.

If you ever get round to it would love to see some Muay Thai guys. Either with the full gloves and armbands or with the rope wraps. I imagine a few people might pick up the Shaolin as part of a Fist full of Kung Fu.

Btw forgot to mention BatMan is fucking inspired.

Hi Commander yep Batt-man's out sorry you had to wait for him :)

Carlos, Hopefully some of these releases should be suitable for a Fistful of Kung Fu and the Shaolin monks are perfect for it

More martial artists are defiantly on the cards just not sure what yet, I would like to do some Ninja but maybe they have been done to death already

Hi Mark, cheers for the update. Personally, while i do love ninjas there are quite a few of them out there either in current production or oop via ebay. What we're missing are modern hong kong triad gang members (see sleeping dogs xbox game for inspiration)& modern kung fu practitioners. I love a good yellow jumpsuit me ;)

Cheers

Kinda reminds me of Poyo Pop Fever Character

Yeah ninjas have been done quite a bit but if you feel you can bring something new or just really fancy sculpting a Ninja go for it.

Maybe base a pair on Rikimaru and Ayame from tenchu or something.
