I'm new to 3D sculpting, and want more practice. If you want a custom design just let me know! I want more practice working in a commission like setting. I would appreciate tips of course, but I'd be doing this completely for free as I'm still learning. Please message me or comment if you would like a custom D&D miniature!
I have provided links of my Coautl and Peryton to the group to give an idea of what I have sculpted so far. The Peryton doesn't have a stand yet, but I will be adding one.
I've always wanted to just DM a spell casting ghoul, could you make a ghoul with a staff, and a tattered up robe or something. I thought your Coatul was AMAZING, you really should keep making these, they're great!
Only thing I would suggest is perhaps for the base/stand have a couple options. I like the creativity of the Coatl base/stand you put on there, but it might be difficult to actually use with other minis on a game board when running a game so having an option to put on the boring 1" (or larger depending on monster size/model size) circle, etc... would be good too. Or maybe keep the nice base you have but have a 2nd version that also adds the "standard" base below your sculpted one?
Seriously though, those both are great sculpts. I'm sure anyone who requests a mini from you will be quite happy :)
I completely agree! I think the Couatl base would get in the way during an actual game. I'm going to release another version better suited. Good feedback!
Also, thanks so much for the kind words! I just started sculpting in June so I have lots to learn still.
Here is my fire giant progress for today. It was hard to squeeze into between work because my job is on-call. I should have lots of time to progress tomorrow :)
One thing that I would love to see someone (maybe you) create is some shields with different deities symbols on them to swap out with standard minis that people paint. I have a few characters that I would love to represent better in my games but am not able to find anyone who does this.
I have a war cleric that worships Tempus (flaming sword), and a fighter that worships Mielikki (unicorn profile) that would really look better than the current shields they use.
Just a thought if you are looking for something besides full mini sculpting. PM me if you are interested and I can send you pics of my minis. If not, that’s ok too. Either way, please post your creations here as I am sure lots of people would love to see your finished products. So far they look amazing, wish I had your talent :)
It could definitely be cleaned up more, but I want to tackle some other requests too :) I really hope you all like it! I'm always open to tips on my Thingiverse. Even a single dollar helps <3 I'm a college student so I'm sure you all understand the struggle haha https://www.thingiverse.com/MiaKay/about
That link isn't only for tips of course. It also has the free 3D file of the fire giant, and all my other designs. That way you can print it if you have a 3D printer! I finally put a base on this one too.

I hope I can make some great things with some of you! Thanks so much for your time!
Could you try a fire giant?
I'm currently working on a death wolf, then I will try that!
I'm thinking of modeling it after this https://www.deviantart.com/liquidose/art/Fire-Giants-407555223
But I plan to make armor for the legs too. I also want to add a fire glow between each piece of armor plate. Does that sound good to you?
Yeah!

Oh wow, thank you so much!!
I will keep you updated on my progress! I've always wanted to try a ghoul.
Hi again Akana!
I'm finally starting your fire giant today. I will post progress pictures too. Feel free to let me know if you want it to look different :)
They're looking good Mia :-)
Thank you Elussya <3
Both of those models look great!

Just for clarity, are you offering a 3-d printable file for our custom miniatures?
Hi there ChaunceyK!
Yes, I offer 3D printable files. I also would be more than happy to print and send them to you if you paid for shipping :)
That's extraordinarily kind of you, Mia. PM being sent now.
Here is a request I just finished for a barbarian!
