October Trailer - Bonegnasher Gnolls!
🕑 Added 2021-09-22 10:35:03 +0000 UTCHi, guys!
You are invited to turn on the audio and click play to watch the trailer above!
First of all, thank you all so much for your support on the current situation here!
Your kind words and well wishes mean a lot to us.
Secondly, just to let you know that we are safe.
We are still on alert, as new vents have opened, ash is covering the whole city and there is a risk of acid rain. But for the moment, the whole team is fine.
Our town is not far from the volcano but still it's out of the lava current trajectory.
Whatever happens, we will keep you updated.
Meet the Bonegnasher Gnolls
Now, back on the topic, all the sculptures for the next month had been done, they are already under supporting and testprinting.
The next theme is about the massive demon/dog/hyeana people, known as Gnolls in many games and setting.
It has not be simple to find the right solution for the Gnoll ladies. In our setting, Gnoll ladies are tall and muscular as the male counterpart, and we ultimately decided to add some little breast to have some differences in the sculpt (otherwise they would be totally impossible to recognize). It's a fantasy world populated by fantasy races, and we often take inspirations from real animals to have clear differences from males to females characters, but with monsters is not always so easy :)
Balljoints and Saddles
As you can see, we keep having modular balljoints for every character (except the Pinup) for infinite combinations and maximum flexibility. Additionally, as for the tritons, the Hyenafiends mounts comes with and without saddle, wich is compatible with all our other riders/knights. We have so many cavalry units to mix and match that it's really fun to assemble combinations :)
Knight on Dragonling? done. Thief on tiger? done... and now even hobgoblin on Demonhyenas! haha.
Stalkerfiend Beast
The centerpiece of the month is a huge six legged beast with tentacles, coming with and without saddle. A proxy for the Displacer Beast has been requested so many times, and surprisingly it fit pretty well the October theme.
The Gnoll Matriarch
Yenogra is our vision of Gnoll matriarch, a powerful warlord that is worshipped as a goddess from the Gnoll race. She comes with a modular triple flail, as the legends says...
There are a couple more of sculpts in this set, and everyone will get a Lore description as always in the Release post, next month (October).
At the same time supports are made, we are truly working a lot on the new release of GUILDS beta, our skirmish and Guild-Building game.
The game is even more fun and interesting, and it's truly fantastic to bring all the older factions published here on patreon in the game. We will make the new update public once it will be balanced, we are still testing some important mechanics.
We are still under vulcanic alert, so it's possible we will be more late with the next GUILDS game update. We are really sorry about that.
Thank you so much for being awesome and supporting us guys,
see you in the next post!

100% with you on that.
Wes Hay
Love this set but I gotta admit I am really disappointed in the pinup. Why wasn't it a gnoll?
The_ Hybred
Loving that stand-alone mount!
Nathanael Huber
Are they compatible with the blackrazor weapon kit?
Adrian
Normally I am glued to the post for days around the 20th of each month, waiting for the reveal video. I thought, with everything going on, that this month's would be delayed, so I missed it. Everything looks amazing as usual. Even the barricades will be exceptionally useful in my Oldhammer games. Bravo
Terje Erwing Bjelkholm
I love gnolls. Wouldn't mind seeing this set get expanded in the future.

The set looks great however the pin-up is pretty disappointing.
Nathan Burmeister
Looks amazing as always, stay safe!
Stéphane Crozet
Nice as usual :-) It's remember me Lion King :-) I hope you're fine with the volcano ! What about a set of wizards and spellcaster in a while ?!
Joey Couch
These all look great and I can't wait to print and paint these guys, however....the pin up being human was disappointing. I don't know what I expected, but it was not this. Overall, these Gnolls look dope, the mounts look dope and the two heroes look dope.
Po_OTato
Not that it was my suggestion but I remember suggesting this and Ratfolk like back in February. So I definitely super excited about this.
Moritz
Love the faces! And the armor is so detailed! Great job, please stay safe! Wish you all the best.
Nathanael Huber
Or some small Goblins maybe?
Nathanael Huber
Fantasitc set! Would love to see some Ghouls or Zombies next!
Sam Birnbaum
Looks like a solid set. Definitely be printing some of that scatter eventually.
Jimminee Krunkle
Question, is the story information for these awesome races like the Arverian located in your guilds game? I would love to add these races into my D&D game. thanks
Jared Rutledge
Just a question, I know that you don't often revisit an exact group but might do something similar or related. My favorite group of yours was the goblin and you just revisited it with the hobgoblins. Would you ever consider revisiting the Requiem Brotherhood?
Edwin Pietrowski
So savage
MrBadgers
That's disappointing to hear.
Erik Talboom
Those are looking amazing!
Nathan Herb
love them, can"t wait to print them up.
Chad Challman
They did it once, a double release with a succubus and incubus, because it fit the theme so well. But they basically said that was a one time thing, and will continue with just female pin ups. Now I'm sure if they get the fitting inspiration and theme for it, they might do it another time. But I wouldn't bet on it.
Brad Marsh
Awesome!
MrBadgers
Looks great, you should consider making male pinups. Stay safe!
Thomas Hanrieder
First! Stay safe!! When I see the Gnolls I am thinking of the Lion King villains..... do not know if I like that, yet...
Rozaline
First of all, hope you guys are staying safe, that's the most important thing. I love the big burly female gnolls they'll be a ton of fun to paint. I will say though the pinup being a generic human lady and not a big burly gnolls lady being sensual feels a bit disappointing. Especially when she's holding the head of said cool creatures I'm excited to paint. Feels a bit out of place, but again I'm excited for the set overall!
Salim Bali
After this set, the Werewolf is on my wishlist for Christmas.😁
CURTIS CRADDOCK
If Y'all need to escape the volcano, you can crash at my place.
James Burford
Oh man, these are such incredible sculpts I signed up on the spot. Been watching you guys for a while but subscribe to more 3d patreons than I can print - let alone paint. The big question now is - who do I cut?
Feastingduke
This looks even better than expected, love them
Raccoon Arts Studio by Ryngs
I am glad you guys are safe! <3 And the gnolls look great! <3
Timothy Hayes
This might be the first set ever from any Patreon that I actually print the entire line up. I love everything about these and am so happy you made an amazing Yeenoghu. Thank you for this.
PNDMike
Me when hearing that the set would be Gnolls: "I dunno, aren't Gnolls kind of boring?" Me after seeing this set: "I will print every single model here and run an entire campaign based on Gnolls just so I can use these amazing models as much as possible."
Gideon Curry
Ok so I gotta say it again, this set is BAD ASS! Love it, with those canine type sculpts I’d love to see the AG take on a set of werewolves
cole murray
Is the unsaddled mount something you might eventually update on older releases? I’d love to see some of the older mounts without the extra gear like the dragonlings!
Sean McInnes
They did it!!! They DID make Yeenoghu AND made her a female after bantered about it!!! Aaaaaaamazing!!!
Ray Dwigans
I'm excited
Edward Lunde
I was starting to worry that ya'll would end up getting stuck in a cycle of elves and dwarves! I loooove your monster releases!
take your time they look worht the wait
BrianV
Amazing sculpts, thank you and stay safe!
Kay Prins
they look amazing as ever, but it does seem that everything is getting bigger and bigger, please keep things so we can scale down without having to redo all supports.
Grischa
Without question this is a great release - gnolls, giant hyenas, displacer beast, barricades.. So much useful stuff! And as always all of it looks great too. Gotta say though, the Pin-Up is a bit of a disappointment. Whenever there is a monsterous race on the schedule, I'm really looking forward to the Pin-Up. And you have delivered some great ones in the past; the lizard one, or the goblin lady, or the frog pin-up... still my all-time favourite model is the mindflayer pin-up; perfect balance between beauty and grotesque. I do really like your release, like always. But I feel it is a shame that we're not getting a hot grotesque Gnoll pin-up in my opinion. In any case, hope you all continue to stay safe; that whole vulcano business seems pretty scary. Take care!
Daniel
Dear god I hope you guys are alright. Hope you'll stay safe. Btw really amazing sculpts like always, looking forward to printing them.
voroka
Sehr gut.
Leslie Bakker Guerrero
good taht you are ok,,,,, and damm,, those Gnols are so freakin awesome
Alex A
Glad you guys are safe. Impressive collection of Gnasty Gnolls too!
Brian
The whole set is great, but I'm really digging those barricades. They will be usable for so many scenarios.
Artisan Guild
Thank you so much! Yenogra, the lady heroine, is a perfect example of Gnoll beauty afterall :)
Aaron Reynolds
I think it's a clever solution for the pin up. I was wondering how you were going to handle that, and I think you've handled it with elegance and grace. Personally, while I think your pinups are fantastic, I'd like to give you permission to not include a pin-up when dealing with a more monstrous or bestial race. Maybe swapping it out for a bust or something would give you an option to play with. I'm sure there are some who would disagree. In the end, I trust your artistic decision-making! At any rate, the sculpture fantastic. And I'm delighted to hear that everyone on your end is safe.
Philippe Thon
This release makes me feel good about AG’s inspirations for future sets :)
Oscar Plascencia
It's nice to read the team is ok. This gnolls are everything I wanted. I've been waiting for gnolls for long time.
Gareth Pedrick
I've been needing some decent modular gnolls for a while, and these are top quality. The only thing on my wishlist from you now would be a "peasants uprising" of unarmoured folks with pitchforks, knives, hammers, scythes Oh, LOVE the pinup btw
Diego (Tecu)
I'm just glad tbh. xD
Shamrock1916
Glad to hear everyone at the studio is doing alright. Although I won't lie; that picture looks incredibly cool.
Artisan Guild
The fierce powerful Gnoll lady is Yenogra, which is also an example of beauty among them :)
Eric Obara
Fantastic release. I’m equal parts relieved and sad the pinup wasn’t a gnoll lol
Iron_flag
These models are off the charts!
Emmalee Stanwood
Huge same! Super excited to work on these as soon as my printer is up and running again
Emmalee Stanwood
Glad to read everyone is safe! This set is so gorgeous, and I'm absolutely loving the displacer beast mount/boss creature! Fantastic job!
BanditRaptor
The pin-up isn't a fierce, amazonian gnoll? It's a human killing a gnoll? Are you kidding me? What a slap in the face for the gnolls.
Gideon Curry
These look amazing, I have been very excited for these release. I love gnolls and these are easily my favorites designs I have seen so far. Well done, expect nothing less from AG
jjmj
very nice!
Alvaro
Great set, as usual!! Gotta love that name for the Pinup lady, hehe.
Jonathan Morales
One of the best releases you guys have done can’t wait to start working on these
