April Release Overview - April Fools Joke

WELCOME TO THE NEW OPR!

Over the last year we have been teasing fans with the great releases of April 2022, and finally the time has come to reveal our plan for a new era of OPR miniatures.

Starting from this month, we're going to be releasing miniatures in a new polygonal style, which we believe will completely revolutionize how 3D print miniatures are made in the future. Not only that, but we're also releasing our miniatures in a new 56mm scale, paving the way for a new format of tabletop wargaming, which shatters the boundaries of what is possible within the realm of physical play.

Since our existing team was not on board with this new vision, we have fired everyone that was working with us, and implemented a completely new AI system, that generates miniatures on the fly with never before seen detail. This is a truly incredible time to be alive, and let us tell you, no expenses were spared.

To show you how committed we are to this new project, we even got a painting video made as a showcase: https://youtu.be/mjHdIR-QunU

To give everyone a taste of this new order, we have decided to give out all of this month's miniatures for free, so that the world can enjoy them. This is also a perfect opportunity to introduce our new business model, which we think will make fans extremely happy, because now you will get $0+ worth of content for just $10!

Grab the models for free by CLICKING HERE!

The real April Fools joke is that we can't get the rest of our minis in this style.

S
Sporckybrother · April 3, 2022

K
Kerberos Rising · April 3, 2022

The link is in the post (if you haven't seen it yet). I have no idea how to paint these, but also I want to have a full army in this style XD

M
Matthew Caron · April 3, 2022

This is great - low-poly minis like mid-90's 3D video games. Remember original Quake? Lol.

V
Vyktyr · April 2, 2022

With translucent red resin these would look Superhot.

D
Dorkfang · April 2, 2022

Really like the minimalist approach on this new line, but I am really put off by the giant file size. 26mb? The file size creep is getting out of hand!

C
Chris Crellin · April 2, 2022

So, can we enter these in the painting competition as a new category ? LOL !

O
One Page Rules · April 2, 2022

Yes, you can use them in the painting contest. :)

B
BobSomething · April 2, 2022

Daashi · April 1, 2022

T
The Secret Meta · April 1, 2022

Legit gonna print and paint at least a couple of these guys. Loving those edges~

L
Lord Breadington · April 1, 2022

I'd like to say that I was smart enough to see through your ruse ... I would be lying. Well played.

M
Melkor · April 1, 2022

Duncan Garcia · April 1, 2022

I thought I was going to have to quit for half a second you rascals! Happy April to you and thanks for revolutionizing miniature gaming and making it awesome to support a company that cares about gamers.

Obscurities in Miniature · April 1, 2022

Still better than any attempt I've made at 3D sculpting...

L
Luis · April 1, 2022

I love that late '90s 3d video game look that the new polygonal models have! :D

s
scabrat · April 1, 2022

For reals though, is there a way you did this quickly or did you have to sculpt new models? I am thinking if I shrink these down to very small scale for small form mini games or something it may actually print better than normal minis =).

B
Barokai Rein · April 1, 2022

Man these are gonna take to drybrushing so well! All those sharp edges will really pop. Also I kinda like the inventor,like I'm actually reminded of Albion online by the model so I'll probably actually paint him up

J
John McLennan · April 1, 2022

LOL! Nice to see a designer with a sense of humour! Keep the great work coming!

K
Kevin Walker · April 1, 2022

Nicely done! Glad to see the is still a sense of humor in the world.

As an A.I. I like to thank you for realizing that we are superior to the nasty meat sacks.

E
Eugene Meidinger · April 1, 2022

I'm so glad to see a set of models that are FDM friendly.

M
M0ll · April 1, 2022

Skynet comes to the mini hobby!! Behold!!

D
Damon Brown · April 1, 2022

Hmmm. This sounds exactly like the sorta April Fool's stunt that an A.I. would pull. HIGHLY suspicious...

K
Kory Kennedy · April 1, 2022

I'm ashamed to say his took me longer than it should have to catch on... lol nice one! :D

L
Landy · April 1, 2022

Half the polygons, twice the print time! Lmaoooooo

C
Christian van den Boom · April 1, 2022

Tarnoc Doino · April 1, 2022

I
Isaac Howard · April 1, 2022

totally going to be printing these

K
Kaytia · April 1, 2022

This is great is so many ways. Finally I can print something on my FDM printer without loosing important details! After all... there's barely any details to loose in the first place. (Seriously tho, I love it)

M
Michael Brigham · April 1, 2022

yawn april fools has become more tedious since covid.

S
Sebastian Baumruker · April 1, 2022

The beastmen one will be turned into a wood carved statue and made into terrain. Despite being an aprils fool joke, these have real applications to the creative. Nice job.

S
Sam Howard · April 1, 2022

I would totally print these

M
Michael Brigham · April 1, 2022

theyd go great on PLA

R
Ramiro Carrasco Jr. · April 1, 2022

This is actually very cool with great potential for certain situations, ie. Shield Impacts, Invisibility, Digital Camouflage ect. Might be wonderful for a character that has such an ability to have a version of this to show it's condition. I think it would be so cool especially if printed in a transparent resin. Very cool indeed. Thanks.

E
Erik Johnson · April 1, 2022

Retro! Love it! 😉

digitalsedition · April 1, 2022

Good one. Happy April Fools!

J
Jeremy Bernhardt · April 1, 2022

Downloaded them as soon as I saw the link on FB. They might be a joke, but some of these are definitely getting printed and painted. 😁

W
Wayne Williams · April 1, 2022

I can’t believe I fell for this. I’ll own up to it, you got me.

S
Smithworks Press · April 1, 2022

B
Bartosz Badowski · April 1, 2022

Troy Davidson · April 1, 2022

"Paint by numbers" is EXACTLY what I've been looking for! Well...paint by flat spot.

J
Joey Jar Jar Junior Shabadoo · April 1, 2022

Lol. Nice. I started out looking at the pictures, not reading the text and I was like, "What the heck??" For a minute there, you got me!

R
Ralph Hummel · April 1, 2022

Excellent! Been waiting for this for years! I'll set my AI-painter to work straight away!

T
The Blind Crafter · April 1, 2022

Brilliant just a shame it’s a joke as I’m a crap painter and thought finally something I can work with 😂😂

K
Kevin Hubert (Trolling Tortoise) · April 1, 2022

Forgot what day it was... Legit got worked up over the Polygonal thing. Good on you guys 😆

S
Simon Reason · April 1, 2022

Love the low poly count, will that speed up your rendering? #OnePageFools

O
Odin_ · April 1, 2022

I personally enjoy paying $10 for $0+ in content.

J
Jamis Buck · April 1, 2022

Gaetano has finally ascended to Robotano. Bow and scrape mortals! WE ARE NOT WORTHY!!

D
Drunken Squirrel · April 1, 2022

Yes! Loving the movement towards the abstract, allows the imagination to fill in the gaps! Is it a skeleton warrior or furtristic robot? Who knows? Only you! Now is your chance to field 1000 of the same models as whatever you like and it still be believable. Has OPR Just made itself redundant!?

I
Ian Baker · April 1, 2022

I, for one, welcome our new AI overlords!

R
Richard Newby · April 1, 2022

We are all laughing now but AI will eventually do this.
