Hi there fellow gamemasters.
By now the climactic battle is looming over the horizon and I am looking for a miniature to represent Ydersius' avatar as good as possible. I know there are the paper minis, and I love them, but for this encounter I'd like to slam an impressive three-dimensional figure on the table.
So does anyone know of something that might be close enough?
Thanks in advance.

Hey Null,
I've got the big battle coming up around the corner too - probably in a month or so.
What I did is printed up TWO copies of the Ydersius paper mini (that I also love, btw). Then laminated them and pasted them together into a triangle shape. Made a more 3 dimentional mini that I then glued to a huge (3x3) base I made of cardboard (the triangle shape made it kinda hard to tell what squares it occupied otherwise...)
Not quite the same as a true mini, but the triangle shape at least gives him more bulk and presense on the mat.
Just a thought if you can't find a decent stand-in.
Sounds like a good idea. I looked around for a godzilla miniature but so far I haven't found one that's not too godzilla. I don't want my players to recognize it as the mutant city smasher instead of a risen serpent god...
Do you have a picture of your mini? I'm not sure if I got it right and would like to try it out myself.
Thank you very much, Malith! I came across that mini but it doesn't really fit the way I pictured the avatar. On the other hand, my players haven't heard or seen of its appearance so far so there is nothing keeping it from being a roughly 'serpentoid' mass of writhing snakes.
I'd still welcome more ideas, though.
