Dagon [KICKSTARTER]

Over my decade of freelance miniature sculpting I have had the pleasure of sculpting several creatures from H P Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos but I have always wanted to sculpt some large, somewhat epic sized creatures! several years ago I doodled some ideas for the ancient god Dagon with the idea to sculpt it one day. The time finally came recently so here it is ready to terrorise your stranded miniature mariners! 


Behold, Dagon! Antediluvian fish deity of nightmarish Babylon! Standing at nearly 100mm tall this resin cast tabletop miniature should tower over frail mortal castaways and New England fisher folk alike.




It is amazing to have finally been able to get this miniature ready to send out into the world, I hope others will want to have him clamber from the chthonic abyss and onto your gaming table.

take a look below for the size of this epic figure.

I am sorely tempted, despite having already spent this month's hobby budget before the month started :'(

I'll decide in a day or two, but I've posted it over on the Reaper forum in the meantime.

Thanks so much for the share, it’s super helpful for such a small campaign.
Cheers

Very tasty looking. A most impressive sculpt, guess I'll have to pass on eating for a bit. Would like to see more Mythos sculpts if this is the bar you're setting. Best of luck with your campaign.
We haul ours to kick theirs.

Yeah, I gave in and backed it ;D

I bought the Reaper Bones Dark Heaven Cthulhu model a few years ago when I stumbled across it in the FLGS, so the more Deep Ones the merrier :D

I believe Crooked Dice will be re-releasing it at some point.

Wow, what a beast!  He’d look awesome facing my 15mm adventurers.  :)

You'll need to buy tanks to take that beast down if it is facing off with 15mm adventures.

Of course, if you were to do something along the lines of "Kong Island" where there is other rather large beast to run from would be really cool instead of "Get to the Chopper!" it can be "Get to the Ship!"  lol
Just remember "If the Enemy is in range, so are YOU!
