Welcome to the Hero Forge Miniature Masterpiece Countdown.
Every day I post a miniature that exemplifies a designer’s use of at least one of my critical design principles: technical skill with the tools, innovative thinking, and expression of theme or subject matter.
At the end of the week, I post the number 1 Miniature Masterpiece. This mini demonstrates the designer’s ability to employ all 3 creative elements in their work.
After 7 weeks, all the winners of the countdown are placed on a single list, and you vote for your number 1 miniature.
Who will be the season 2 All-Star?


This guy looks like a hot rod from hell. The excellent implementation of the color palette complements the exquisite design features. This looks like a nightmare from a diesel punk campaign ready to burn away the competition. I particularly liked the skull embellishment on the chest. It reminds me of a hood ornament. Perhaps the hood ornaments on Satan’s Cadillac?
The Countdown so Far
