Cerberus
« on: 02 April 2019, 06:48:13 PM »
This is my Cerberus Miniature. It’s made for a joint project with myself and The Pickled Dragon. We’re wotking through the creatures from the Monstrous Lexicon book. Two down, hundreds to go.
Probably released via Kickstarter in May.

Pretty good take on a mythological varied subject.  The tail's a nice nod to Horace and the rest of the "part snake" crowd, and the anatomy on the three dog heads looks plausible compared to many of the attempts I've seen at Hades' dog Spot.

So, we going to get a version with Heracles lugging an unconscious version of Spot over his shoulder for his final labor?  Always wanted to see someone sculpt that one.  Bonus points if you do a sculpt of King Eurystheus hiding in his pithos while you're at it.  Olympus knows he spent a lot of time in the thing while Herc was working for him.  :)

Thank you all. He’s currently with the metal caster and I’ve got some resin copies being painted at the moment.
More Cerberus types coming soon.

Very nice! Proper dog anatomy there - well-studied!

Great sculpt! I would have a good use for him in my pseudo-Greek RPG campaign.

Great sculpt. I have no need for a Cerberus, but I'm sure I can find one. ;)

Love it :-*, although I'm slightly disapointed because I miss read the title and for a moment I was expecting a barbarian Aardvark  :D

A three headed dog is much more use to me though

I received these pictures from the terrifically talented John Morris. Who painted my Cerberus mini way beyond anything I expected. I love the glowing eyes and tiny arcane markings.
I’m looking at a shyness Kickstarter for Cerberus and some friends of his. All monsters from the Monstrous Lexicon manual.
