Question: Have you ever played a punitive expedition against a roving band of woodwoses?

I find it very interesting how people of European descent (and others) seem to have been illustrating their “battling” against giant hair-covered humanoids for centuries. :)

PS. Granted, some of that Woodwose art is in the marginalia of manuscripts, where other artists have depicted jousting on giant snails and such (now, there’s a gaming concept to try out!):

I sculpted one for a project years ago, but never got around to casting it... maybe I should! :)

Great idea (one I might steal!)
And definitely get the model cast up Lovejoy!
Antediluvian do one fighting a knight in their fantasy range

Lovejoy
Lovely figure! You should definitely get it cast/produced.

Other takes on what woodwose would look like:

I was actually thinking of the Copplestone castings Yeti as possibilities...
If you want bonafide big foot, Antediluvian miniatures also do some 'Patty' style classic bigfoot; and Reaper does another that scales well...

I really like those Copplestone ones!
