Newsletter , February Lineup and New Model Release
Greetings friends
I hope you are all well and had a great January. I thought to give you a major update with all the news and the things I prepare for our community.
First of all i would like to inform you about my health condition. Things have been moving slow but definitely improved since the last time i spoke to you. Physiotherapy does help with the pain levels but i still havent stopped taking the meds that keep it to a tolerable level that allows me to start working slowly and help me sleep. The doctor says that it will take at least one more month for the pain to significantly decrease. So i want to ask for your patience until i am back to work 100%. I do try to sculpt these days and it feels and gets better day by day. I am starting to learn living with it. :)
New Partnership
That is not all though. During the past 6 months i have been preparing a partnership that will take the studio to the next level. And this partnership is with Pixel and Plastic and Ryan McAlee. Ryan is an artist and Game Developer that fills a lot of blanks that are not in my skillset. Except being a great sculptor he will help bring a new style and a combination of game characters, stories and props. In addition , his development skills will improve our infastructure and the way you get your benefits. This means cleaner organization. He prepares a file manager to help you keep things organized and show us more clearly what you are most interested in. This opens the door for much larger projects that are too big to include here, so we’ll be sharing more focused posts about them soon.
New RPG in the works from Fotis Mint Studios
I’m incredibly excited to share that I’ve joined forces with Taylor Holloway (Great Hunger, Creature Caster, Gangfight Games) to create a brand new open-source RPG with the title Witch+Bane.
Witch+Bane is a brutal, low-fantasy roleplaying game about Hunters - scarred, desperate people who choose to fight horrors in a world that has already failed them. It isn’t about heroism, prophecy, or saving everything; it’s about tracking down witches, demons, and monsters and doing what no one else will, all while trying to maintain your humanity while doing it. Every character is shaped by loss, bad choices, and violence, and the rules lean hard into risk, consequence, and erosion rather than power fantasy. Every hunt in this broken world forces you to decide how much of yourself you’re willing to burn just to put one of these horrors into the ground.
The Book is under development and the estimated release is Q3 2026.
New Release (Rumi bust - Kpop Demon Hunters) Printed Obsession Commission
I watched it with my daughter (she is obsessed with Rumi) and since i had a good amount of people asking for Kpop , i asked from my good friend Morgan to sculpt a bust of her since i was unable to work for your guys. I hope you like her :)
Printing Tips
Resin printing
The model comes pre-supported for resin users. Support service by Charro Zuck.
FDM printing
FDM users will have to use supports under the chin, her jacket and the edge of her pauldron.
February Lineup
Ares bust
For February i will finally release Ares. I have been working on him very slow but the progress is very good so far. All tiers will get him even though its an original concept because i delayed the release after my diagnosis.
The Terminator bust
Never sculpted Arnold so i think its time to make a cool bust of the T-800 with battle damage.
Gorillaz figures
For a very long time i wanted to sculpt the whole band. We will start with 2-D .
I cant wait to get back to work guys. I have been like a lion in the cage since December and i want to thank you so much for your massive support.
I will talk to you again really soon
Love
Fotis
