Check Out Privateer Press’ MiniCrate Character Concept Art
September 12, 2017 by brennon
Privateer Press has been showing off some of the concept art for the characters you'll be getting in the upcoming MiniCrate releases.
The Swamp Horror that you see here is going to be the model within the first MiniCrate, a service which delivers to your door a cool and unique figure as well as design and concept art that helped bring it to life. You have until September 19th to get your hands on the first model.
Beyond that, we have a look at the model for October too with Die Wulfe In Sheep's Clothing.
This model is a tad more playful than the terrifying Swamp Horror but I'm sure that she'd still blow you up given half the chance. The Bagpiper Of Ord...
...and this hauntingly Christmasy creature are then going to be the miniatures that will take you up to Christmas and the end of 2017.
For those who love painting individual figures and trying out new techniques, this seems like a great idea, especially since it's based around the world of Warmahordes. It does a nice job of expanding on the world and also adding a bit of fan service into the mix too.
Here is one of the models that is coming next year...
I think I'd want that model in my collection. Whilst I like the idea I can't help but put my Critical Role fanboy hat on and say how much that's like Pike from Vox Machina.
What do you think of the MiniCrate idea?

As someone who loves the character but hates both existing models, I *must* have that alt Ashlyn!
..and the Ordic Piper, because.. Ord.
@brennon I think the Die Wulfe mini is a bonus for folks who sign up for multi month subscriptions. It looks like the swamp horror is the October mini and bag piper is November.
That is correct mate , you win the Shining Silver Light of Truth. ….. Shine on
Cool, thanks for clearing that up.
Those are some nice concept art.
Having scraped together all the change from my change draw, I subscribed to this. Very keen
If I was a person who painted individual minis I’d subscribe now we can see its not all pin up minis, seems a good way to do cool unique minis. I am not, so haven’t but hope it does well as there are bound to be awesome pics.
So it’s…a blind-box for miniature gaming? With monthly subscription? Jumping the shark much, PP?
No it’s a series of unique ultimate sculpts with moulds destroyed afterwards. Few spoiled, other to be confirmed.
Man, first Loot Crates, and now Privateer is jumping on the whole blind-box subscription bandwagon too? What is it with people these days? What kind of sheep do marketers take us for these days? I already have a list a mile long of cool figs that I desperately want but can’t afford all at once SIGHT SEEN, plus I have bills constantly rolling in each and every month to take care of, so WHY in the world would I sign up for a commitment to give people my hard-earned cash each month for things that I don’t even know if… Read more »
You can sign up for December and then cancrl. If you subscribed for 6 months you’d get a 7th mini the De Wulfe in sheep’s clothing.
Our definition of ‘blind’ must be different as I clearly see 5 pieces of concept art out of the 7 models in the subscription.
