I've never seen the live show unfortunately. I can’t drive for medical reasons and it hasn't come close enough to us for my mum to be willing to come with and drive lol.

They've cofirmed a show near Leeds at the start of April next year, so that's fairly close if you're in Sheffield.

I am so sorry for not replying. For some reason I didn't get a notification that you had responded to my comment.

I'd love one but it's probably too late.

I think I still have an intact unpainted one I packed away while rearranging recently. I'm working with some different resins now that are giving me really consistent results at larger sizes, so I can run off a bigger one after I'm done with the Smirkernorrf diorama I'm trying to motivate myself to finish.

Drop me a private message if you want to work something out.

Plans for an IMPROVED version?! This one is absolutely amazing! You did a fantastic job.

There are some flaws where I made some mistakes and had to improvise to cover them but you'd need to look closely to find them and it's really comfy to wear. Other than a few tweaks to the shape, the horns are the biggest issue. Making them both sturdy and light was challenge because the materials I had weren't ideal and they ended up a bit over-sized.

I've since significantly expanded my 3D printing capabilities (although I'm waiting on some replacement parts right now), so I'll probably just model and print the horns to the exact size and shape I need if I get around to making another one. I mostly just make things for fun whenever I'm going to Knightmare live now. Last time I did a fright night cosplay but that was a super rushed job making the helmet.

So, I noticed that Knightmare live is doing a 10th anniversary tour. So, after booking for the nearest venue, I decided to make something new to celebrate the occasion. I went for a mix between early season screen accurate and illustration accurate, just trying to capture the general look and design details. It's a little over-sized so it looks proportionally correct for cosplay on an adult instead of a child.

I started this using whatever materials I had lying around at the time and went into with no plan at all. Many screw-ups later, I have something I'm happy with for a first attempt. I've got plans for an improved version after I've finished a few other projects.

I need this in my life! Superb job.

This one has already gone to a new home but I have an unpainted one lying around in in my printer closet, if you're interested.

Fantastic! They'd make great bookends.

I've actually made full dragon statue bookends before but they were for Dragonriders of Pern, which has much simpler dragons.

Doing something like that for Smirkenorff would be an awful lot of work and I'm busy with other projects at the moment. Some of which are Knightmare related.

This has reminded me I never posted a picture of my paint colour test.

Those look absolutely gorgeous. Scaled up they could easily pass for the genuine article.

I gave these ones away, so I need to make more for myself. I'll do that as a larger version when the weather warms up, so it's easier to run my printers. It would be fun to offer some to the dungeoneers at Knightmare live if they do the game expo in Birmingham again.

Please don't sell these or redistribute the design since we would see that as being too close to an endorsement of IP infringement...

Well, it certainly makes a change for someone else to be saying this instead of me having to explain to people why I can't sell them things.

I've done plenty of projects for other fandoms and I have a long standing policy of never selling anything. It's always been my opinion that it's disrespectful to the creators to try to profit of someone else's IP. The only time I've released assets was after speaking with the author of a book series I follow to get permission.

I generally do this sort of thing entirely for my own entertainment or to support the fan projects of friends.

So, although I'd dearly love to do something like a modular tabletop game for Knightmare, I doubt the opportunity will ever come along.

These are fantastic! How did you make them?

I model them in 3D using Zbrush, then ran them off using my resin 3D printers. The smaller one is done as a single piece and the larger one is done hollow in multiple parts, then assembled afterwards.

All of these creations are astonishing!

I'm glad you like them!

Feel free to make requests / suggestions. I have some ideas for some fun things to do, so I'll be making more assets for a while.

I don't have any advice to give for painting it, but the detail is incredible!

I'm mostly just trying to decide if it's worth unpacking my airbrush equipment or if I should just do it all by hand. Either way, I'm unlikely to start on it before the weekend.

I'm glad they stand out and they'll be a lot clearer when painted. I long since lost track of how much time I've spent on this one. It was definitely the most time consuming so far on the details.

I couldn't find a good bottle, so a jar will have to do.

I'm going to stencil or etch the word into the lid and replace the seal ring to be less obvious.

Here's a Smirkenorff bust statue I'm working on.

After reviewing photos from all the different seasons, I decided not to go screen accurate. Partly because his design changes slightly over the years and partly because it's just more fun to inject some of my own style into it.

The bigger version is almost 6 inches tall and about as big as I can go for a one piece print on my equipment. The print took about 11 hours and it took several hours of work to do the clean-up. It's ready for painting now, so I'm pondering how best to approach that.

I never had the chance to win one of these as a kid, so I made my own. Based on the original concept art and the board game box illustration.

This is my test run at about 2/3 of my final size. This version is a little under six inches tall.

I couldn't resist...

All plastic, I did the modelling myself. This is the version 2 set, as I had some technical issues with my first version. I can post more pictures and renders of the models if anyone is interested. The dungeoneer in this version is about two inches tall.

Finished it.

Thanks for the feedback!

I'll go through those typos and bugs the next time I'm working on it.

The hidden path is either directly down from the exit door or directly left of the platform, depending on which route you take. Granitas and Olgarth will give you clues.

Talking to the Jester is a bit fiddly. You can only talk to him when he isn't moving, so just walk towards him and keep tapping the interact button. He'll give you a riddle to help pick the correct exit.

Sprinting past the Scorpion is meant to be very hard. You'll need to buy the REDUCE spell from Scaramonger and see what happens when you cast it in that room...

If you went past 'Velda', then you've surprised me by reaching level 2 via the 'hard' route.

The main route to level 2 is meant to be via Smirkenorff and there are something like five ways to convince him to carry you, depending on what you did during level 1 and what items you have.

Out of curiousity, how much of the Ramohna storyline have you found, and have you found the catacombite yet?
