Tome of Beasts: The Einherjar!
Hello friends! The first models of the month are these celestial warriors from Norse Mythology! This was an excellent sculpting and rigging project, and I made a rigged up base version in case anyone else wants to make different poses or use different weapons. I made a basic melee version and ranged version. For FDM printing I recommend printing this on their backs though be careful with support removal on the bow. For resin printing the usual presupported file is up.
While this is the next creature in Tome of Beasts, the Einherjar are technically no one's intellectual property, thus they are also located in the Misc Patron Request folder so its safe for commercial use.
More to come tomorrow! Enjoy!

The horned helmets are a bit of racist false stereotyping of old Norse culture though. It'd be nice to see helmets without the horns. :-)
Oh these arent supposed to be literal Vikings. But sure I can remove them that's easy.
Nice
While we're nitpicking..... The poses seem a little static. I think they would look more dynamic if the shoulder and hip lines were not parallel. And the main body line could be tilted to create interest. Great modelling. Pose a little lifeless. But....I guess I could change that myself in blender if it has a rig.
Looks awesome! Little feedback: warriors holding their axes by the middle of their handles instead of the grip of the handles is why I don't use HeroForge. It's always been a peeve of mine. I always think, "this warrior's so badass.... oh wait. Who holds an axe like that‽" I'd be delighted to see less of that in your models. Everything else though... *chef's kiss*
But I hold my axes like that :( Jk. You can adjust the axe as you want. That's why I supply the files :)
