Dear Paizo,
I know you are a tremendous company that listens to it's customers, so I am starting this thread so that people can voice their demand. On a recent blog, October 29th 2008 you showcased miniatures made by N'wah. Having seen this and other excellent examples of his work I am starting this thread as both a declaration and petition. Please hire N'wah to create sets of 2D minis for Legacy of Fire. The high quality and fun artistry are an excellent fit for Paizo's APs. I know I will do my best to collect each set of minis released. Fellow Paizonians, if you would also like these excellent products added to your collection of gaming materials please let your voice be known here.

I would buy a PDF version on these mini and more, in either colored or uncolored versions. Also I would like to stress that I would buy just about every set you had him make, Paizo!

*Raises hand*

Me wants Minis, me wants meenees!, N'wah's minis, not just any meenees!

I would definitely pay good money for these. N'wah's art is awesome!

Let me cast my vote for either pdf's or physical product. especially if you had him do them for each individual AP.

I don't know if I get to throw my 2 pinch in on this or not, but I have to say that playing through CotCT with N'wah's minis has been super sweet!

I would very much like the ability to, when legacy of fire comes out, run it using a full set of N'wah drawn miniutres. More over, I would very much like to have a set of N'wah minitures for the other already existing AP's.

With regards to basing. I have been using some of N'wah figures for months now and found almost immediately that the best option for basing them is to print them onto sturdy card with a short, blank tab under them. Then simply us superglue to glue them into the slot in a small citidel minitures round infantry base. Now these can be bought by the bag of fifty i beleive from citidel. So one option would be to buy your self a bag of these to base up your minitures on.

You can count on my plastic!

Raises abused Visa

maybe instead of a brand new product, have it as part of the map pack, thus raising the desirability of this product that it seems some dms just don't want...

Add another vote for a PDF of N'wah miniatures, done One Monk style.

i loved the 1at AP iconics... and my DM really loved the goblins... so in forename ofmy roleplaying group we demand minis for the people! cof cof... err sorry to much time on Galt...

but aye we would like a similar product, in my case printable is a bit best... mostly because the shiping cost are killing me... je my eternal complain is that my country and my state is as close as Canada to the US, but they get most of the time US shipping and we don't :P

N'wah's mini's are AWESOME!!! My DM would love to have a PDF version that he could get to use in his own game!!!

I played with my Heraguv mini made by N'wah monday, my group liked it a lot. They were making suggestions of printing out four that way no matter where you sat you could see the picture. I think they would go big for playing with an entire set.

Thanks for all the interest, and let me know what you, the potential consumer, would want!

I hadn't thought of doing four on a base. Benchak and I were discussing doing art for the back side of the mini. It's a bit more work (easiest method we've discussed was "do original art, scan, erase interior lines, reverse image, reprint, draw back side of mini, re-scan"), but if it helps people enjoy the art more, then we'll look into playing around with it. Might make the 3-d stuff difficult, though ('course, I'm a ways away from mass-producing 3-d dudes, and they really work best on Large and larger minis).

Thanks for all the interest, and let me know what you, the potential consumer, would want!

N'wah I did this with some other paper minis just by taking the original image and flipping it then folding it over. It's a little tricky lining it up. I'll do a couple goblins for you and show you.

I've thought about doing that, it's just there's that part of my brain that says, "but it's backwards now! This guy's suddenly a lefty!"

I would be a lot easier to do, though. Does that seem like a decent compromise? Lemme know!

You could do worse than to release a pdf.

High-quality, recession friendly miniatures...

To be honest i think they look their very best at their simplist. On-sided, black and white and wonderful. But two sided would be cool also.

Dennis da Ogre"Check this one out

Heh. Interesting that you chose my RotR character, Signe.

We are all huge fans of N'wah's minis, and there are a couple of discussions about how best to "bring them into the fold," so to speak.

Keep letting us know you're interested. Something may be developing on this...

I'm interested

just reminding you i'm interested

don't forget I'm interested

OK I'll stop now :P

N'wah just wanted to say that I'm one of the players in the group and I really liked it. So much so I posted my character at the end of the "Draw your pathfinder PC" in hope of getting in line to get one of my own. Once again excellent work.

And like Erik said, keep showing the interest! Nothing helps make it a reality like showing the demand for a product!

I'll say it again: a PDF pack of N'wah miniatures, done One Monk style (front/back + base), would be sold in a heartbeat to me.

I'm still interested!!! Bring it on! Yay!

Doing the minis without a distinct front and back is a definite dealbreaker for me. Do 'em One Monk Style, and I'm sold.

I don't care about front/back, but it would be cool, a lot of people do use facing houserules.

For me it really would be best as a PDF product i think, and i prefer front/back with sperate images or just being one sided to both being the same.

I would love to see something like this included in the Players Guide.

Looks like there's enough demand for double-sided minis to look into the feasability of it (Ben and I are more than willing to give it a go, and we'll only nix the idea if it's an absolute nightmare to set up). Also, on the black and white vs. color front, I can offer both. They're all inked in B&W line art anyway. It'd make the download a bit bigger, since you'd essentially be downloading the same thing twice, but it is easy to do, and offers both camps what they want for essentially ten extra minutes of work. So yeah, that's doable.

Anything else? I'm planning on having a sheet of bases that people can print out if you're like me and don't have extra bases lying around, and I'll provide instructions on how I assemble them, when/if this thing happens. what else do people want to see? A pack of minis for each AP adventure? A big "best of" collection at the end of each AP? "Generic" monster packs? I'm leaning towards packs for each AP adventure; that way, I can provide exactly the number of minis each DM will need in one set, but monster packs also make great sense, especially if people aren't running the Pathfinder APs specifically. Let me know! :)

Please add me to the list of people that are looking forward to giving Paizo money for N'wah miniatures.

This is pretty awesome!

Count me in for both also, I know I want them to fight the NPCs in the adventures, but I also know that I don't always run APs so being able to get a cheap pack of different looking Gnolls, or Orcs, or goblins etc, would be great if I was planning something in advance.

soldiers, archers, blackguards and paladins to fill my rooster army...

ahh sorry :P

AP would be fine, my DM would get them immediately (i know him) for me i would love the monster revisited... i would love/hate to see a bugbear... those are scary

but can we get undeads?

vampries
mummies
ghouls
skeletos
zombies
liches?

*** CAUTION: HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION AHEAD ***

Okay, how's about this: we start with monster packs, probably culled from Classic Monsters Revisited. If those look like they're doing well, and if Paizo thinks it's worth their time, we can move onto APs. At the very least, most of the monster packs would work rather well for existing/upcoming APs (goblins for RotRL, gnolls for LoF). Would that work for people, or is there more interest in an actual AP tie-in?

Remember, I'm looking to start small here. Much easier to start with one or two things then expand up, than to jump in hardcore and have to pull back. So if you had to choose, for the time being, between yummy CMR monster-packs, and packs for an AP, which would you go for?

Also, if things look up, I do hope to make some generic "playable race" NPC packs. Guards, pirates, cannibal halflings, etc. are all possibilities.

Do people want those first, or some villainous monsters?

I'd be down with an undead set, if it seemed like something people want. 'Course, what DM doesn't like undead? :)
