Next Theme Selection Poll
Added 2022-08-09 13:48:05 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
I think I will be able to finish The Dark Council next month. So it's a good time for us to decide what the next theme will be.
Poll rules:
- Any option with 0 votes will be trashed, it simply it's not good.
- Any option with less than 10 votes will be recycled, meaning that it will not show again for some time (I can rework those ideas).
If you have a better name to suggest or correct my English, feel free to leave it in the comments.
You can vote on any number of themes, the most voted will be selected to be sculpted after The Dark Council.
As standard, all miniatures are medium size (32mm scale, compatible with 25.4mm round base), if they are not, there will be a (XX) along with the miniature name:
- ML - Medium-large, use 32mm base, Tauren's are a good example of what I will be doing with this base
- L - Large, 50.8mm base
- H - Huge, 76,2mm base
From the last poll selection, we currently have 3 open slots for new ideas: The Dark Council (Current theme), City of Gold, and Flat land Racers (Which haven't met the safety quota). During the Council Meeting post I was planning to change Fire and Iron to another theme but I was convinced to keep instead I will add more than 10 Themes...
Let's go to the Options:
- Welcome to the Barrens - Part 1
In this set, I will work on an Orc'ish camp NPC, an Orc Watchtower, and a Catapult. These forces are getting ready to invade Ashenvale. This could evolve into quests, Quillboars, Centaurs, The princess (Fat Earth Elemental)
- 3 x Male Grunt
- 3 x Female Grunt
- 3 x Dire Wolf mount, and Wild
- NPC (Male Troll Berserker(L), Orc Outpost leader+Mounted Pose)
- Orc Watch Tower (Huge or more)
- Welcome to the Barrens: Quest 1
After skipping all dialog you decided to kill some Quillboars! Many players do this, I am no exception. In this set, we will skip Welcome to The Barrens quest line and will go on a killing spree, doing this does not eliminate Welcome to The Barrens (We still need to turn back our quests, for the gold and XP). I would work on (possible to make part of Razorfen Kraul with this set):
- 4 x Warriors Quillboars
- 3 x Rangers
- 2 x Geomancer
- 2 x Boar Pet
- Boss
- Mine Small Trouble
Kobolds are coming, well, not really they are inside the mines waging war against one another. In this set WOW Kobolds (Ratfolk) are fighting Pathfinder Kobolds (Lizard/Dragon). Why choose which one is the best when you can have both versions?
In this set, I would develop Both Kobolds versions to fill a mine and a few props, like veins and Cart. These Kobolds won't be the same but 2 different models.
- Sun's Fury Camp
I could not think of a better name for this one. After making Gelvain I kept the feeling that I needed more pawns to work. Making only pawns would not be that fun and after seeing one blood elf image I wanted to make this. So here is what I plan for this set:
- 2x Pawns
- 3x Elven Militia (Including Gelvain)
- Elven Casters
- 6x Elven Soldiers (3 males and 3 females Spellbreakers)
- 2x Ostrich Rider (2 mount pose, 2 Male and 2 Female riders)
- Camp Leader (boss)
- Dragonborn (Not the real name, Need help naming this)
- After seeing some of the Dragonflight datamined models, this is what a Dracthyr should look like. So my idea is to take a model in the picture and make a set of Dragonborn (with tentacles and without, so you can go D&D or WOW).
- Fighter, Paladin, Hunter, and Priest/Cleric, 2 of each

Suddenly rifts start to open around the world, and demons start to invade our lands.
- Imps x2
- Imp Boss
- Fel Guard X4 (Large)
- Pit Lord (Huge)

- Durain "The Stone" (Male Draenei, Prot Warrior)
- Savid Tasseltof (Blood Elf Paladin Retribution)
- Lasmine Cleeth (Female human, mage)
- Shadow Walkers
This theme will be focused on a group of Broken Draenei Assassins
- Modular Light armor Broken Draenei Male x3
- Modular Light armor Broken Draenei Female x3
- Broken Draenei Boss
- Weapons: Kusarigama, Kama, double scythe staff
- Dwarven Expeditions Part1

- Modular Dwarf Riflemen x3 + Mounted pose
- Modular Dwarf Female Hunter/Fighter x3 + Mounted pose
- Expedition Leader Unmounted + Mounted Pose
- Griphon x 2 poses + Wild variation (L)
- Fire and Iron
This theme will be focused on a clan of orcs that lives inside a sleeping volcano. This theme will be inspired by the Iron Horde. These orcs will be riding Drakes as their mounts. If you have a better name for this set please let me know.
- Modular Male Orc Warrior x3 +Riding
- Modular Female Orc Warrior x3 +Riding
- Garunda Hellfury: Female orc Shaman
- Drake x3 poses + Wild Variations
- Corruption of the Glade Part 1
Satyrs are spreading their fel magic on the Glades corrupting and destroying the forests, the first part will focus on a group that is fighting against the one that spread the corruption Part 2 will be a dungeon kit (Diremaul East)
- Furbolg druid x2 (ML)
- Furbolg fighter x3 (ML)
- Dryad x2 poses (L)
- Centaur (Keeper) (L)
- Masters of the Elements
A group of Pandaren monks as Parody with Avatar, the legend of Aang
- Air Monk: Male Pandaren (ML)
- Water Monk: Female Pandaren (ML)
- Fire Monk: Male Pandaren (ML)
- Earth Monk: Female small Pandaren (ML)
- Boomerang Monk: Male Pandaren with a short mohawk (ML)
Those are the options, choose your favorites, and save those that you find interesting. You can always change your vote later. In case of a Tie, the Theme will be selected from the bottom (older Themes).
Best regards,
Ivo

Hi Jan P. Yes, I did consider but since it's an awesome set I was thinking of delaying it a little bit. I am not very fond of Murlocs, they are ok I guess, But I really do Like the Naga army and those Myrmidon. I will try to include it in the next poll, I will talk a bit with the council and make a theme with them.
2022-08-23 20:48:28 +0000 UTCHi Ivo, have you considered doing murlocs? There is like one set on the market at the moment, I'd love your take on them.

2022-08-23 20:07:33 +0000 UTCYes they will 😂. To me most of the elves have long hair and only a few have short hair. For modular heads and supporting I think short hair helps.
2022-08-11 08:36:38 +0000 UTCI've been voting for furbogs everytime but is sun elves win, I just hope they have long hair.

2022-08-11 06:01:26 +0000 UTCI also love Furbogs, I think that they should be a playable race in WOW. But I don't think that this will ever happen
2022-08-10 10:24:02 +0000 UTCWell, now that we have a plan in place, lets action it!
Mini Manatee
2022-08-10 05:17:14 +0000 UTCI'm pretty happy with all of them (I think booty baywatch is lowest on my list though, however it has the best name by far) The Furbog set is at the top though! I love WoW Furbogs and the Dire Maul dungeon is probably my favorite one aesthetically. Great choices!!

2022-08-10 03:46:05 +0000 UTCHumm a reasonable request, completely possible... I just need to multiply myself 15 times, and drink lot's of coffee... I will be fine afterwards 😜
2022-08-09 15:09:57 +0000 UTCMake everything! And finish them in about 2 weeks, that would be great. Thanks.

2022-08-09 14:52:28 +0000 UTCGreat choices! Wouldn’t mind a pitlord
Rich DiLorenzo
2022-08-09 14:30:57 +0000 UTCSo many great options. Was really tempted to go for the Quillboars or Furbolgs, but as a lifelong Warlock there was only one choice - Demons!

2022-08-09 14:28:50 +0000 UTCYes, multiple votes save me a lot of sanity on these polls 😅 Barren's Quest, Shadow Walkers, Gates of Hell and Corruption of the Glade made it impossible to pick just one
2022-08-09 14:02:15 +0000 UTCI also forgot I can vote for multiple things I think are cool too.

2022-08-09 13:57:48 +0000 UTCAwesome! Remember that you can always redo your vote later.
2022-08-09 13:55:04 +0000 UTCThese are all good choices. I think I'm gonna go with Questing in the barrens since I don't think I've ever seen any minis that even come close to quilboars so I'd be super interested to see how they turn out and to have some!
