Message of Thanks

What started off as a detailed plan of attack to create immersive tabletop dioramas for D&D Live 2020, colored with eager excitement and determination, soon took an unexpected turn for this talented group of artists. With grace and unquestioning support to see things through, they continued to complete their work on the D&D Icons of the Realms: Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden miniatures sent to them and enhanced these minis with their talent and artistry.

I want to thank each of these individuals for taking time out of their busy schedules to help WizKids bring these miniatures to life. I highly encourage you to follow them on their socials and see what they add to our TTRPG community through their creative eyes. Their passion for what they do and for the gaming community as a whole is evident beyond their painting skills.

To the artists, on behalf of WizKids and myself, your efforts and assistance are greatly appreciated. Thank you again for all you did for this and I hope to work with each of you in some shape or form in the future.

My Sincerest Gratitude,

Vee Mus’e

Leia of Sorceress Sundries

“I love tabletop gaming. I’ve been playing table top games like Dungeons and Dragons for nearly fifteen years. I started painting miniatures for my personal tabletop games and RPGs almost four years ago. I started being asked to paint minis for friends’ games, which eventually turned into commission pieces. It was then that I knew that I couldn’t keep my love for painting and tabletop from one another. When I opened my shop, I knew it wasn’t just about making some money from my passion, it was about providing some of my best works to tables all around the country. Now I get to live that dream every day.”

Sabi, artists of Painting Myth

“Nerd Mom, Coffee Lover and Miniature painter. I first started this adventure with my husband roughly 5 years ago, Only adding in the final details on miniatures that he didn’t care for but drove me nuts not to have, such as eyes, claws. Focusing on the smaller details eventually led me to painting entirely, leading me to where I am now. Where it goes from here, I have no clue. But I’m pushing forward and hoping for the best.”
