Monthly Report - July 2022

Hello everyone!

Tomorrow is the last day of the month, and it's time for another report.

The miniatures in the monthly render are a bit smaller than usual because it was hard to fit so many large models in a 1080x1080, but that's a good thing.

Miniatures released this month:

• Patron Commission: Elven King
• TDG_Draconic Centaur_ Pose C
• TDG_Draconic Centaur_ Pose D
• TDG_Draconic Centaur_ Oracle of Flames
• TDG_Draconic Centaur_ Keeper of Flames
• TDC_Gelvain Emberwood
• TDC_N'Zull, The Defiler

This month I created 2 new Tier of support, and one of those tiers can open a Third Tier.

What's coming in August:

• Patron Commission: Magma Knight
• TDC_Boraz, The Dream Eater
• TDC_Oxavon, The Devourer
• TDC_Tok'zreth, The Loreseeker

These releases will be available only on Patreon during August and will be available for Tribes in September.

In August we will reach halfway from The Dark Council theme, so I will open a poll with some options for the next theme.

At the start of the month I will make the public announcement of our first painting contest. If you missed the announcement here is the link:

Wishlist or Backlog (Things to make)

This is a list of things that I think are some cool ideas that I could not make because of time constraints that I will do once I have free time. I will keep it here as a reminder.

• Mounted Tyrande
• Turalyon
• Turalyon and Alleria diorama "Marry me!"
• Illidan and Arthas diorama "I AM prepared!"
• NE Aorus Windrider, Field commander (In progress) + Quimera
• NE Balista Operator
• Bear Pose 2
• Fariel's Hand of Thorns spell

Changes in the Welcome Pack

Joining the welcome pack starting from August there will be Aris Meadowbrooke.

This was the second wedding that I took a commission. As part of the deal, I requested to share this sculpture with you guys. She is the second miniature for the wedding. To the Groom and the Bride I wish them a long and happy marriage. 

With this addition, the welcome pack will consist of a pack of 16 miniatures.

My favorite miniature

This month I liked every miniature that I did, the Dragon Spawns are one of my favorite mobs (kind of awkward, but I like them), Elven king I liked doing him but, If I had  picked I would choose  the newer version for him. Dreadlord, is a really cool Hero to pick, lot's of nostalgia. Gelvain out of the blue... but someone had to die to make the Dreadlords even badass.

Hard to choose, but picking only one I will pick Gelvain lol, this elf will suffer a bit more in the next few models, he will be forever remembered. Also after I have done him, I ended with a feeling that I needed more elves, so now I want to make more Elven pawns, Militia, and Spellbreakers... Well deserved.

What's your favorite this month?

Final considerations

As of today, the number of supporters is:

• Patreon: 86
• Tribes: 42
• Minihoarder: 3
• Apoia.se+Catarse:  4

I am closing Catarse, and opening Apoia.se. Catarse was one of my first choices for a national subscription plan but, the development of the platform was staggered in time, with not much evolution. So I decided to change. I had some meetings with managers from the new platform and so far it looks promising.

To a total of 135 supporters, thanks to all of you for the support you have given me.

Those that are leaving this month, farewell and I hope to see you soon. If you don't mind, send me a DM to tell me about your experience and how can I improve.

If you have any comments please let me know and leave comments below.

Best regards,

Ivo
