FAQ

Where is my order?
Rest assured, we are printing, cleaning up and shipping your order as fast as we can. Myth Forged is just the two of us (Sam and Steve) so sometimes in busier periods a bit of a queue can develop. Average dispatch time is 5 days but check the banner at the top of the site for accurate lead times.
 
What kind of glue should I use?
I use a gel super glue. We sell Loctite on the store as we know it works!
Poly/plastic cement will not work
 
What prep do I need to do for painting?
The miniatures should be ready for a priming coat, however I'd always recommend a quick wash with warm, soapy water. You can paint directly onto the mini, but I recommend priming.
 
Why have some of the miniatures come on supports?
I ship delicate or small things with the supports still attached. I've found that things get broken and/or lost if I don't. If you submerge them in hot warm for 15 seconds, most miniatures will peel off the supports really easily. Just go slowly and steadily.
 
My mini feels sticky/tacky to touch - what's going on?
Sometimes the combination of humidity and the packaging causes the washing solution to make the surface a little tacky. This can be solved with a wash in either isopolyl alcohol, or just hot soapy water. Leave to dry in the sun/warm dry place and they'll be fine.

Introduce the hauntingly captivating Four Punting Gondoliers of the River Styx to your Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder 2E, or Call of Cthulhu campaigns, blending the ethereal charm of Venice with the macabre allure of the underworld. These miniatures depict skeletal gondoliers, each guiding their gondola across the murky waters of the Styx, the river that separates the world of the living from the realm of the dead. Dressed in attire that echoes the Venetian style, with elegant robes and traditional hats, these gondoliers manage to maintain their worldly elegance despite their skeletal form. Around the gondolas, skeletons attempt to climb aboard, desperate souls seeking passage or perhaps trying to return to the world they once knew.

The sculpture of each Punting Gondolier of the River Styx is meticulously detailed, capturing the eerie grace of these undead ferrymen. The gondolas are slender and ornate, true to the iconic Venetian design, even in the afterlife. The skeletal gondoliers are poised with their punts, navigating the silent waters with a solemn dignity that belies their grim task. The desperate skeletons reaching for the gondola add a dynamic and unsettling element to the scene, illustrating the relentless pull of the Styx on all souls departed.

For miniature painting enthusiasts, these Four Punting Gondoliers of the River Styx present a unique challenge. The skeletal figures offer an opportunity to explore bone textures and aging effects, creating a contrast between the stark white of bone and the dark waters of the Styx. The Venetian styling of their garments invites a play of colors and patterns, adding a touch of vibrancy to the otherwise grim tableau. The gondolas themselves can be painted to reflect the ornate craftsmanship of their worldly counterparts, with wood grain textures and perhaps a ghostly glow to emphasize their passage through the supernatural realm.

Incorporating the Four Punting Gondoliers of the River Styx into your TTRPG sessions introduces a somber yet fascinating element to the narrative. Whether as a spectral encounter in a campaign that skirts the edges of the afterlife, a mysterious group of guides offering passage to a realm beyond, or an ominous sign of things to come, these miniatures enrich the story. Their presence on the tabletop serves as a vivid reminder of the thin veil between life and death, offering players a unique interaction with the guardians of the boundary, where the elegance of Venice meets the eternal silence of the Styx.
