Generic Enemy Skull Figures for DnD

thingiverse

Printing out specific enemies that you know your party will face is nice, but sometimes you run into situations where you realize that your party is far stronger than you remembered when planning the encounter. To keep things interesting, you need to spontaneously throw in 5 Owlbears along with the boss monster you initially planned. For this purpose, I've been amassing an army of generic enemy minis, complete with skulls to let you know they're bad guys. All these minis are remixes of multiple different files on Thingiverse that I've been collecting over the years. I tried to include as many remix links as I could remember where I got said files. This collection will be growing as I create more and more generic enemies for my own needs, so check back every so often. Included are some counter pegs that are quite useful for keeping track of each enemy's individual health and statuses. To use these counter pegs, just place them on the same coordinates as the mini you wish to add and rotate them as needed for each individual mini. All minis are scaled for 25mm hexes. Important notes for each mini: Plain Skull: Prints great with minimal supports mostly needed to fill the gaps in teeth. I haven't tested printing completely without supports, but it seems theoretically possible. Beefy Skull: These buff skulls definitely need supports, but the supports are easy to remove due to the large gap between the arms and the base of the model. It's an easy print. Kong Skull: The monkey skulls need supports, and it's somewhat difficult to clean the underbelly without using sandpaper. Winged Skulls: The wings are super duper thin and might require some extra reinforcement after removing the supports. I personally spread out a couple of drops of superglue on the underside of the wings before priming and sanding. It removes a lot of detail on the bottom, but you're likely to have the bottom detail lost due to the support materials anyway. Hermit Crab Skull: Requires support material, and it's very difficult to remove and clean the underside of the model because of the low clearance underneath it. The best option I found was to remove the support material underneath the head/neck of the hermit crab and leave the support materials underneath his skull shell as it's difficult to notice anyway. Octopus Skull: Prints great without supports!
