the Skeletons are coming in February!
🕑 Added 2021-01-21 17:18:17 +0000 UTCUpdate: The trailer now contains the Shortsword Tale Bonus Set, coming in february too!
this thing is HUGE :O we will make sure to not make bonus models for a while
Hello follower, Adventurers and Merchants!
It has been a tough month, but we can really say we are happy with the final result.
This is our first real effort to make some Undeads for our universe and miniature line.
Undead are pretty common in every game who involve minis, so we really hope you can find a cool use for them!
As you can see, we started with a Skeletal faction, the Fallen Ones from Oldburg: the first district of the City-State of Torm.
We included some lore aswell, not perfect English of course, but you can figure out the story behind these cursed skeletons ^^
Oldburg Fallen Ones - Lore
6 Oldburg Fallen Ones (modular)
Ancient soldiers who betrayed their lost kingdom and were condemned to undeath, turned into walking skeletons for eternity. They are now bound to follow their undead general and the evil Lich Skulkator, forever.
During the siege of the City-State of Torm, these soldiers were guarding the district of Oldburg. Deceived by the evil warlock Skulkator, they betrayed the Fighter's Guild and Dragonguard defense plan by opening one of the three great gates to the forces of the Tyrant-God Tialevor, letting the Ashen Inquisitors and their divine leader in.
3 Nightmare Riders (modular)
Even Oldburg's trusty steeds took part in the curse. These mighty horses serve as mounts for the army of the dead.
Skulkator the Lich (modular)
During its life, Skulkator was the powerful warlock of the City-State of Torm. By betraying his people he signed an oath with Tialevor, the Tyrant-God. Now he haunts the ruins of the city as Lich commanding with Harguul an immortal army of Fallen Ones.
Harguul Blade of the Roses (modular)
General of the soldiers of Oldburg, in the great city-state of Torm. His prowess and skill became even greater following his transformation into a Fallen One. (coming with skeletal head or closed helmet).
Harguul on Azekiel (Standalone beast or Saddled version, rider is modular)
Azekiel the demonic, is General Harguul's skeletal warhorse. His hair, generated by cursed evanescent flames, illuminates the gloomy battlefield like the light of the moon.
Eliza (Fantasy Pinup)
The beautiful bride of Harguul the general, even if not taking part in the betrayal of the warlock Skulkator, was partially pierced by the curse of Oldburg, turning her into a walking corpse, half lady and half skeleton.
Oldburg Mausoleum (comes in part with separated door option)
The miasma carried by Skulkator to all of Oldburg even hit the cemetery, condemning even those who rested in the cryptic mausoleums. Approaching these small structures often causes a hungry skeleton to awaken
7600 Goal TOTALLY CRUSHED!
Our powerlevel is almost at 8000! Prince Vegeta would be (almost) proud.
We can't thank you enough to be supporting us friends! As promised, we are now testprinting the all modular Shortsword Tale new 3 Gnome Heroes. They will be ready for the first days of the next month!
February will be a sort of double release which includes the Oldburg Fallen Ones, and the full Shortsword Tale (3 Greatgoblins and 3 Gnome Heroes).
SHORTSWORD TALE LORE
The brave leader Mina the Barbarian, the witty sharp-tongued Tinto the Bard, and grumpy Warlock Janto, are three close-knit brothers of the Gnomic race who roam the wilderness in search of treasure and fame. During their first adventure together they will find themselves exploring the Greatgoblin Mountains. This infamous species of big, smelly furry goblins can't wait to cook their favorite dish: mountain herb gnome skewer.
Will this group of little might heroes be able to defeat the smelly Goblins and reach the hanuted city of Torm? Great adventures awaits the Beetroot brothers!
GUILDS GAME
We are also reviewing and testing Guilds whenever is possible, wich is still in open Alpha, and that's the reason we have not included new faction. Things are evolving quickly and it's really possible that we change core features, making the effort of adding factions totally worthless. Still, you can use any model you want as "skins" for the available factions.
Thanks a lot guys! We really hope you are looking forward to the Oldburg Fallen Ones. On our side, we can't wait to see your prints and colorschemes for them :)
The next contest will allow you to partecipate with both Shortsword Tale and Oldburg models.
Cheers!
Andrea & Francesca

At that rate
Andrew Roach
They would have been ready days ago, they usually wait until all the payments are processed though (about 2-3 days)
Mate Lonich
I've left most of them at 32. My party loves them. Most epic sofar was the Yoshigaru (Oni Clan leader) I have most of them painted, and I've created some own terrain grid with 40mm squares out of wood for indoor encounters/dungeons, and I use paper based grid for outdoor encounters(32mm). 32mm for the win! More detail, much wow. Have to keep the party on edge and oh boy, when I take a closed box out of my bag they already go "oh nononoNONONOO" Also 32mm looks better in the vitrine.
Ricardo Oshonasi
the dtls are not ready yet ?¡
Danilo RDS
Soy nuevo en esto, aun no se pueden descargar los stl no?
ChrisKrieg
Fellow DM here. You been going through the work of scaling AG minis down to 25mm bases? The skele pack luckily has a lot of 25mm based creatures, but I had my work cut out for me to scale down all the 32mm models from January.
Mate Lonich
YES! I'm a DnD DM for a lvl6 party, and I've just fine tuned Siraya Tech Blu on my Photon. This will be an EPIC fight. Great Work AG, thank you!
Anthony Krieman
My PCs have learned to hate the gnomes I throw at them...
MegaCthulhu
Skele's look amazing. Is the link up and I just missed it, or not available yet?
Anthony Krieman
@Shani and @Lilian, all of their sets include both female modulars and female heroes. The pinups are exactly that, pinups. I’m sure if there was a huge outcry for it they’d make a “magic mike” orc but at the moment there doesn’t seem to be a demand to justify the effort. There are several women in my various groups that love role playing a sexy and powerful woman and these minis fit the bill. Just because “you” don’t connect with them doesn’t mean “everyone” can’t connect with them.
Anthony Krieman
Yes, provided you do not increase it past the size of your build area.
Dennis Mull
Hi, a dumb question. If you increase the scale of a model with supports will it still print ok?
Samuel van der Spek
This is instantly my favourite Lich model. I love it when you guys hit classic D&D villains cause the Artisan Guild special sauce really gives them life.
Daniele
Hi, will I get the january minis on my MMF? Because i am still waiting for the invitation :)
Patric
Loving the gnomes :D Is the link up and i have a problem or is the link not up yet for the download? Thanks in advance :)
Shane Howden
Holy shit dude, this is an AMAZING set! With the lil gnomes too.....wow!
CINTI 3D
why can't I see the link?
william sconzo
I'm happy to see both, but the gnomes are AWESOME. And I feel VERY needed. Not enough small folk in 3d prints.
Tyson
Look, have to say I'm loving the sculpts, but I wouldn't be adverse to some pin-up dudes as well.
Mark Theurer
Came back into the fold to get the Frostmetal dollies (they are awesome, by the way!) and even though I don't really need or care about the Skeletons coming in a few days I do very much want the shorties and the Bugbears so you got me again :)
Artisan Guild
thank you so much <3 !
Artisan Guild
we have tons of material... in italian. There are plenty of description in english for each release in our MMF shop items, and we will slowly translate and evolve our material based on some new (unexpected!) releases :)
Jakub Lizińczyk
Yeah... I absolutely love the gnomes too :D
Martin Dickson
I know - at first I was a bit like "meh, skeletons" and then AG show their WIP and it becomes: "By Crom! I want those Skeletons now!!" :)
Jim O'Keane
These look great! Thanks for the very generous set this month!
Martin Dickson
Only watched 11 times? :) Alternate view - and entirely imho of course - I think in *this* instance the smaller base (with extensions) helps emphasize her wide stance / pin-up parody pose. (For other miniatures and circumstances though I'd agree that a more appropriately sized base was better.)
Easy
Great looking gnomes - now I have seen everything! :D And a great set for Feb, too. Can't wait for the actual release.
Martin Dickson
Also Vae Victis are doing some in that vein, and (imho) their style (and that of stl miniatures) are a pretty decent fit with Artisan Guild's models.
Martin Dickson
[shudder] :) I'm put in mind of a female undead joke emote from WoW: "Of course they're real... they not *mine*, but they're real."
Felix Olbrich
Really Nice!
Rob Leonard
Lovin' the gnomes! :)
Steven Thomas
Seriously stoked for this coming month. What an awesome lineup. Great job!
Ryan Buehler
Looks amazing!!!
Sam Stanage
AG, you guys are amazing. The quality of your work is unparalleled and the quantity and value is also off the charts! No one else even comes close.
Terry McNemar
What are the odds we could get more info on this world? Like a map or some history or something?
Coffin Puppet
AG is consistently knocking it out of the park. Every time I see a theme that I'm like, eh, not really my taste, they totally make me reassess my stance and fall in love. The only thing that I would say is bad is that now I have a mighty need for a full gnome release from them!
Josh Mills
Best set yet!
Michael Bradley
No alternate sculpt for pin-up Eliza? Sad face.
Angel Sainz
Rewatching the video for the 11th time... I don't like Eliza's base. Don't be afraid to make bigger bases if the sculpts need it. Adding those two extra pieces so that the mini "technically" fits on a 25mm goes against the overall look of the mini, imho
Saurdaux
Very excited for the skeletons and the Shortfolk/Greatgoblins mini-set both! Will there be a variant unmounted pose for Harguul that has the sword extended like his mounted pose does?
Easy
Releasing gnomes and bugbears as a goal mini release is a stroke of genius. The right amount of both, too. Just perfect. (and they look fantastic as all your work!)
Bernat Rovira Lastra
I am SOOOO happy right now that they come pressupported!!!! XD
Thomas Stalhood
I wasn’t too excited for this at first. But wow! Great work!!! I love them all!
ChrisKrieg
Love it when the regular enemies are 25mm based! Makes it so much easier to print them off and bring them into my DND game. 32mm is tough for me as I often need to scale them down to fit on my maps.
Jester
I don't they do that here...but check out stl miniatures patreon
kushmadejay .
Nice! just need zombies next.
Artisan Guild
@Lillian Remove skin and muscles, and all skeletons are the same. Of the 6 skeletal soldiers you can decide wich one was a woman during her life. Check the fighters guild in comparison: we have 3 modular guys and 3 modular ladies. Here it's not so obvious without skin :)
Artisan Guild
Shani you are right, but in our monthly set all women are armed and dressed with the same armor/clothing of the male versions. The fact that we do one extra montly pinup doesnt change that. Check our dwarve oathbreakers and defenders, orc barbarians, fighters guild, ashen inquisitors (dark elves), sylvan knights we did and so on: ladies modular figure and women heroines are no different from the guys ones, and we put a lot of effort in it (and their personality/backgrounds).
Artisan Guild
Actually all terrains fit common resin printer, we are trying to continue with the habit :)
Artisan Guild
Yes, they already did it for the very first releases. Next week they will distribute tk libraries other releases (one every 2 weeks)
Marco Klitzing
I got all of the Sylvaneth Files in my MMF Library by now, so i guess they might be on that, just needs some more time i guess ;)
Michaelovic
Beutiful. Is there any chance you coul make in some way "ordinary" common characters for RPG? You know - townsman, villagers, stallholder, nobleman etc...
Solaaris
Will we every get the files loaded into MMF like other creators do? Its really convenient and saves lots of space on the old hard drive. Its nice to be able to go back to previous released and print a figure out etc?
Lilian
i agree, all of the women have to be pin up sexy poses
Shani Djohar
Can we please talk about how all of the women have to be pin up sexy poses instead of having women minis my players can actually connect with? It really feels alienating to only have sexy pin-up women in a fantasy based print.
Arman
Love the release. Will the Mausoleum be able to be printed on the smaller Resin printers like the Mars Pro? I have an FDM printer otherwise. All in all I like the direction you have taken with the terrain offerings.
Scarlet Moon Designs
Soooo excited!!!
Diego (Tecu)
This looks awesome. Any change of a non-rotting Eliza? Like, same pose and all, just without the rotting and bones showing? Kind of a "fresher" zombie.
Reed Andrews
Amazing, I want more!!
Will
is it February yet.....
Jimmy Trinket
I freaking love these skellies! And their bases are so badass!
Lilian
I need a skeleton girl, that zombie doesnt belong in this set...
Moritz
Love the Heroes! Amazing as always :)
Dragomir
I don't like undead minis and avoid them whenever possible (exception of vampires) so I'll skip next month. AG surely did their best and they put some high quality details but it's just not my taste. I guess each to his own. Let's see what'll be for March
Rob Leonard
Great undead set, love the variety in looks and poses. Also like the addition of badly damaged weapons. The lich is probably my favorite in this set. Great job once again, and congratulations on your continued success with your Patreon!
Scott De Jesus
Ive been waiting for some dope skeles oooouuuuuwwwweeeee
Rayburn Neal
just glad to be able to help and be a part of the journey...at least a consumer. Your work has pushed more towards becoming a 3D modeler/designer/whatever you do!! its awsome.
MrMix1212
So excited about this set. There's a cavalier in the group who left his squad after seeing what the leader was really doing. This will be his fellow soldiers who died at the battle he was supposed to be there for
MrMix1212
Very happy to hear that!
Artisan Guild
greetings Ricardo! Next one coming about 15th March :)
Masterwork Miniatures
Your perspective on the beauty this month kind of surprised me, It is my current favorite model in the line up and I love the opportunity to do some OSL. Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but Cast'n'play has a really awesome necromancer girl with a skeleton here: https://www.myminifactory.com/it/object/3d-print-necromancer-98044. Hope that helps!
Shawn Michaud
Love them!
chris proctor
I might be in the Minority. But Normally I Enjoy Printing and using the beauty in my campaign. And while Skeletons are a Needed thing for any real dungeon collection. The Pinup this time is leaving me Rather Disappointed. I was hoping for a Necromancer, or perhaps a banshee or a Cultist. I just hope the Pinups coming soon can speak more to me.. a Wonderful skelly army. Just wish the Pinup was .. Um.. Not as .. Rotton.. Love your work. Long time fan!
Jason Williams
Wow. Just breathtaking.
Erik Waring
You two are the best stl artists bar none! Everything you do is fantastic and these are no exception. I haven't seen a skeleton set that even comes close to this!
Ricardo Oshonasi
great job greetings from mexico by the way when it comes out next epic boss
Aaron
I love these! Can't wait till Feb. I have one question, are you able to add a barebones skeleton, like a skeleton minion?
Martin Dickson
Those are very nice! Must not start entire new undead army... must not start new undead army... maybe just a warband then...
Martin Dickson
Where she's peeling her flesh off to the bones underneath? :)
Lilian
I need a lich lady to swap that zombie girl
Lilian
i was expecting a nude variant https://cdn140.picsart.com/276479771017211.png?type=webp&to=min&r=640
Artisan Guild
25mm like fighters Guild
Artisan Guild
We tried a lot with a skeletal pinup but it doesnt worked for us. As for Banshee, she will be the pinup of a ghost release :)
Herudo
Some of the best Skellis out there. Love how they are not only armed but also very armored so you can see a glips of what they were before their unlife. The terrain is also very good again many options, could use the roof as an altar, for some spooky sacrifices for the liches rituals. The mounts are all fantastic and will make a nice black knight unit for my undead army. The only thing i really dont like is the pin up, zombie girls just don't do it for me, a banshee or ghost would have been more of my taste, even a skeleton in a dress, but thats a very minor complaint (but still one i want to voice). Overall this is a stellar job and one of your nicest sets so far
LordHoratio
I second this. We need boobies and booties for the pin-ups.
Notgoingto Usemyrealname
IT'S CALCIUM TIME BABY
Florian Hoppe
Awesome work! I love every single one of them. Are the infantry Oldburg Fallen Ones standing on a 25mm base or again on larger ones?
Estevao Correa
They look gorgeous Andrea. The pin-up makes me wish to see zombies done by you guys.
Michaelovic
I like broken swords - more stuff like this - parcially damaged weapons. I like also lattern - more stuff like this :-)
Zac Erickson
I was initially skeptical of skeletons, but I should know to trust you guys. I’m making this entire set.
Solaaris
I like them..but dont. Seem a bit too bulky for my tastes.
Torck
Awesome!
Bill Curran
This looks absolutely amazing! I printed out all of the January set and it looks like I better get more resin as I’ll be printing all of February as well! I’m really glad you skilled the vote and started working on what excited you as these sets are incredible. Somehow you’ve continued to exceed your already fantastic quality.
Michael Bradley
Beautiful! Are we getting an 'alternate' sculpt for the pin-up?
Sol Blair
Oh wow... wow. Stellar.
Josiah Blackie
this looks majestic
Dre Kol
Always great work. Very very excited for the skellies this month
Jeff Swain
Need to get my Boomstick and sally forth!!
Claes Jakobsen
Quality wise AG is in my opinion TOP 💵but just have to much cartoonish over the design..
Acalagus
Cannot wait!
Reynard Mans
I used to follow a lot of designers but these are just stylistically and collection wise fat superior in my opinion. I love AG
Artisan Guild
Its the warrior heroine in the group :)
darthweezy
Amazing work! I will enjoy using these for CoS!
CarloGlobo .
Those are some ridiculously awesome skeletons! The sexy zombie butt is freaking me out for all the wrong reasons, tho... XD
Edwin Pietrowski
This is so sick, one of my favorites from you guys. You keep outdoing yourselves
Greg Hagan
Love it all, love the spell coming out of the book. The details are awesome on these figures
Raccoon Arts Studio by Ryngs
These are amazing! <3
Matthew Cress
I’m totally printing 32mm for humans and 50-60mm for dead giant skeletons
Matthew Cress
Fantastic job guys!!
HAChaos
Love these Skelebois!
Aaron Reynolds
SO GOOD. Please include a female gnome! There are none out there that are any good!
Robert McDermott
The bone scythe looks awesome!
James Harrison
That would have been interesting to see :P
Robin Blair
What I mean is... These look amazing!
James Harrison
Love the entire set but that Lich is the cherry on top! I bet Renato had a fit supporting it :) Can't wait to see the remaining two gnome heroes! Hope that one weilding the axe will be a good stand in for my gnome beastmaster.
Robin Blair
Almost every month my first thought is "do other 3d fantasy modellers just hate AG" or alternatively "why aren't models from WizKids etc. this good?"
Kjell
Awesome stuff definitely will be painting these bad boys love the knight of roses!
Gerald Valentine
Once again, outstanding job on these!
Milo_Jones
SpOoKy ScArY sKeLeToNs SeNd ShIvErS dOwN yOuR sPiNe
Eric Lee
I’m really looking forward to these! Going to run Thaw of the Lich Lord once the pandemics over and these will look great!
Ne Obliviscaris
This set is absolutely amazing!!
setprower
These look amazing. Although, while I love the pin up, I am just a tad sad it isn’t a sexy skeleton. Keep up the good work! I’m definetly making one of these a new character.
Jonathan Conley
The look so awesome. Month after month your team pushes themselves to improve and do more and do better. It’s amazing and I hope you keep it up and never lose that passion :). Just done burn yourselfs out :D
Axel Yung-Ling
Yes finally some good skelly boys to print, this is going to be awesome!
Michael Hudick
Oh wow. These really blow other skeletons really out of the water.
