This is a request to all the talented sculptors on LAF. Recently, some very nice Innsmouth hybrids has been produced by Black Cat Bases and the ones Rattrap Productions sells. But most Deep Ones still looks like, in my opinion, boring lizards, taken from an old '50s sci-fi movie. Can someone, please, sculpt some cool Deep Ones. Perhaps with more physical features and character.

Just look at these awesome Deep One sculptures and masks:

Deep One 1

Deep One 2

Deep One 3

Deep One 4

Thanks!

Seconded, thirded and fourthed, the current deep ones are fine as far as I can tell (don't own any yet, so it's not an informed opinion), but some of these would be fantastic!!! Someone contact Paul Muller, quick!!!!

Yeah, no offense to any out there, but I've still not seen the definitive 'Deep One'. There are some decent ones, but none that really make me go

I've seen most of those busts before, and would love to see that in 28mm!

This one, as mentioned above, is a Four-A mini..If we could get some bigger ones of these, that'd be closer! (this one is 'boy sized') And it's a Paul Muller to boot.

As far as 'hybrids' go, I agree, Blackstone created some of the coolest I've seen. Available at Rattrap.

That "Four-a-mini" miniature have that "something" I would like to see in future Deep Ones-lines. Lovecraft describes them as horrible creatures and many of the existing Deep Ones looks to harmless.

And I would not cry myself to sleep if the sculptor/s skipped the monotonous "Frog-bodies". Give them personal characteristics. One could be fat as an overfed hamster. Another muscular as Schwarzenegger in his youth.

Nice sculpt Achab. I love the rabid face on that one!

Nice little thread this.Great to see one of the Four A miniature figures shown too.

I have just sent off an email to a sculptor about some new pieces

.

I have painted versions of the Piranha Boy miniature which I need to get up onto the web site.There are also the Sea Demon's which might be usefull too.

Fenris Games have the Deepones which are great pieces.Ian also has more which have not been released yet.

Great finds gentlemen. very cool.

Those masks are super-scary, perfect for DeepOnes. I am wondering how the intricate details would turn out when reduced to 28mm and allowing for sculpting/moulding tolerances?

Fenris Games Deep Ones are great but little to big for a whole horde. Hope the new stuff are smaller.

There are some smaller ones in the new mix, plus modern hybrids to go up against the APEX investigators....
