Hello everyone. I am Lucas.
I design paper miniatures for D&D and Fantasy tabletop RPG. They are a cheap replacement of metal and plastic ones. In addition they can be printed in hordes.
The minis you can find on my patreon website along with tutorials.
Just use your home printer to print the templates on quality photo paper.
You also need paper knife, double side tape and metal washers (optional coin).
Lots of templates are for free. The rest available for my patrons who support my work.

That's a clever way to get a bunch of figures for monsters and such. Looks like the digital files could also be useful for Roll20 or other digital table tops. I'll check it out

Subject: Re:[Patreon] "Print&Play" Paper Miniatures
Thanks guys. I consider making paper miniatures for SF tabletop wargaming. Inspired by popular systems I could design my own races. Do you think it would be more useful in this forum? Any advices?
I would suggest (in the future) editing the promo art. It's far too easy to cheat and simply screen-grab all the stuff and make your own printable sheets (you may be lacking the backs of the figures etc. though).
I'd put a logo or watermark or something over them (unless you're only showcasing a handful of the actual art and are willing to risk that.
Have you considered finding a company who sells those slotta-style bases for this stuff to team up with? You know the basic "standee" base, etc.

I expose only promo arts here to show the final presentation. The templates are available only from my patreon page. Still lots of them I share for free.
I attach black base to every miniature, with suggestion to stick 1"metal washer to the bottom. Available in most d.i.y markets. Of course the base can be cut off and replaced by your own. There are some youtube tutorials how to make custom bases.

I would like to see your take on the factions of the upcoming AoW-Planetfall video game which will be released in early August.
