...and I found this: https://highfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Antwerps

Yup; that's them...  :D

I loved Quest for Glory back in the day and one of the more challenging monsters to beat was the Terrible Antwerp! Look up Beefcake's Quest for Glory thread in the It's Alive subforum over at the Workbench; I believe he also has one (but bigger ;) )
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Looks like he sculpted it!!  Very nice work.

My wife volunteered over at Silverstone for the weekend.  Unsupervised and without a definite honey-do list I had some time to pretty much finish up the hovel.  Box construction out of textured fomex.  Detailed with card, match sticks and coffee stirrers.  I am not entirely happy with the hole in the roof as it looks off.  I think it really needed to be a bit more distressed.  Exterior weathering will have to wait as I need it for a game at the club tomorrow.  I also need to take the shiny off some spots of glue that are showing and add some weathering to the hole in the rug to make it stand out better.  Those will be a quick fix. 
Exterior shots first.

Hope you like.

That looks a superb interior, but I just wondered why you went for a flat roof, I don't know what period you are gaming but wondered why not a normal roof, thatched or tiled. Presumably it's to do with the ethos of your setting but I'm curious.
Anyway, superb. :D

Thank you for the compliment.  It is for a fantasy city setting so I am happy with the flat roves.  They also help me stuff more buildings into fewer containers to drag down to the club to play.  That is the same reason that I don't do much exterior detail.  It can be added on with custom made scatter.

Excellent stuff! Now, if my Aunt Betty is anything to go by, what you need is 4 decades worth of newspaper articles scattered around the place and a heavy misting of cat urine and you have nailed it! o_o
