Creating Dragons, Kobolds, Cultists and more with Hero Forge Kitbashing!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.ค. 2024
- My Dungeon Master requested help with creating a set of D&D models for a Draconic Cult, including Kobolds, Dragonborn, Human Cultists and other evils. And so I have now created a small army of monsters using Kitbashing (which as of this video's release is still in Closed Beta)!

RIP Dwarf
Let me know below what you'd like to see next!
How about making a Troll? KB would be an amazing tool to make the proper large, heavy creature with some variations like mountain or river kind.
Tiny or Gargantuan sized monsters
I suggest orcs or goblins #greenskinsupremacist
@@dolans.g7259
this new system would be really good for Warhammer style greenskins tbh.
@@JustSomeRandomBot-ox8pi imagine the bloated troll
Back in my day, it used to take forever twisting and turning horns to get them in just the right position. These young people and their new fangled kitbashing
Are horns kitbashed as well? It looked to me like he was posing them the usual way.
@@gettar82 in his last video he mentioned that you can only spawn in x amount of items with kitbashing so you still need to learn horn hair and posing
Future kitbashing Video idea: make a jellyfish character
derf you should do a dragonborn knight for your next video, that sounds cool I think
>:(
Man your Final Villain BBEG I just feel like he’s secretly a True Dragon
Shhhhh you gonna spoil the plot
Seriously your skills were already phenomenal with glitches and double models (etc.) but what you create with Kitbashing is truly amazing!
I think arguably the best thing about this system is that it's honestly infinitely easier to use than all the old classic HF tricks. Some of those still have uses if you want to make really advanced models, so they won't be obsolete - but for all the people who were put off by the awkwardness of those glitchy tricks, KB is really a saviour
IT STILL DRIVES ME INSANE THE AWESOME CAPACITY OF THE TOP-DOWN IMAGES BEING HANDMADE BY YOU ARGH that is so dope bro
mimic chest as a mouth? That brings back memories :D
Reeeeaaal nice again Derf! Shows off kitbashing really well, and I can't wait to put my grubby little fingers on it!
I just have ONE teeny tiny bit of feedback, and it's that in my opinion, the HeroForge models always look a bit flat, especially for more monstrous characters, so I like to buff them up with a tail or something, to give my monster characters a rounder shape closer to an animal. But I don't know how well that could be integrated with the armour pieces on torsos yet, so... Eh, take that with a grain of salt.
As for a suggestion, I really want to make cyclopean things with single, giant eyes right now, so I'd love to see more of asymmetrical disgusting abominations!
As Altiholic, it doesn't usually mean reroll character, it means that person, such as me like making new characters to try out different concepts and such.
Of course it is harder to be altiholic in dnd, as it be easier to have them die naturally than have 50 character sheets to keep in track, compare to have pixelated character that has all functions done for you by the computer.
Derf making a video about kobolds is quite possibly the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.
Okay we need to see a rebooted necromancer army now that he has kitbashing
I cant wait for the kitbash feature to come out. I can finish my dnd character as the bit i need to add to her is her prosthetic jaw
I’d love to see some demons and devils using kitbashing
HELL YAH KOBOLDS!!!
I drop a couple of questions while still watching the video before I forget:
- about using clothin as kitbashing elements, do they actually follow the original body part they're attache to? Example, using a slleve, if you later bend the arm dos the KB sleeve follow it?
- I see you editing the size of kobolds' fingers, and it looks like you have to do it one by one. So does KB allow you to select multiple anchor/joint poin at the same time to edit them proportionally together? Or not?
Also loving the draconic cultist. Not over-complicated design but captivating.
I need KB! XD
Yes- the Snapping mechanic will mean that if I move those Sorcerers' arms or w/e else, the attached shirt-arm will follow it appropriately. However, it's attached to the upper arm, so if I moved the elbow I can't guarantee it'd follow as smoothly. As for selecting and editing multiple things at once- no, I don't believe you can do that, not right now anyway, but they have a lot more updates coming for KB so time will tell
@@Derfholm tyty
Finding your videos has completely transformed how I use hero forge. My models used to be so trash and now I'm at a place where my dnd group is having me make models for our campaigns. I definitely have a lot more room to grow and still have a lot of tools I can improve on using but this channel has made the learning process so much better.
Man, I just wanna know more about your DnD game and to see more content on it.
JULY 16 DATE OF RELEASE IS REVEALED! JULY 16 DATE IS REVEALED! ARAHASHDARFUEHBAUOWYFDBHAWf
AAAAAAnyways I love these models, they're so good, wonderful job. I am going insane counting the days until Kitbashing, and seeing this fills my hunger for a day or two. As for a suggestion, what about absolute monsters. Abberritions, body horror, things like that.
Got into 10:40 in the video and I got a question: Hoe many kitbashing slots are available right now in your early access version?
Edit: Nvm he says later it’s 20. I’m kinda hoping we get a lil more when kitbashing launches tho
only up to 20?! That is so small!!!
@@greenchilistudioz4537 Not really. Look at the Dragonborn Hunter, that is his only model with all slots used, and it is cluttered. Combined with all the other features, its not small. They're also working on preformance and debuging, so their probably going to increase the number
I legitly broke my neck after seeing this on my recommended.
ow
Tuh-buh- VHAT
@@Derfholm Cool build tho 👍
These are amazing! Great work on these. THe video itself is great and serves to sate my appetite for kitbashing for a bit longer.
mate its been a while
damn wellcome back
Excellent model Derf
Good luck on your fight against your crazy uncle :D
Jeez, each and every new video from you makes me wish I could be in your DnD group lol. RIP Dwarf, but welcome Kobold #2!
Smaug would be proud
Man your colour library is so organize and well put together!
jeezus heroforge has come so far since i last used it. this is really cool to see
I was thinking you might make the Dragonborn Captain a blue dragonborn but then you made his armor blue instead :P still looks great!
Hey! Literally asked for this a couple weeks ago, awesome!
you gotta make a tortle
Wooow, new video! Really like your content, Derf. Cant wait for kitbashing to be released.
Will you do insect people someday? Thanks!
BUG PEOPLE WILL HAPPEN ONE DAY
@@Derfholm YEEESSS!!!! Thank you Derf!
Tieflings! They must be done!
I can't wait to be able to make the legs a bit longer
I miss the models in the description :(
The kobold monk was so coool
can't wait till this comes out of beta
Don't know why but it slightly bothers me that you used the kobold heads for dragonborns
Same bro, theyre different races (species in new phb) so it just kinda bugs me
Great work as usual! Can't wait to get access to the new features. I keep wondering why with all the animals/creatures/familiars in Hero Forge...why is there not a spider??
Good bloody question
And no dragon model, like wtf?!
I gotta stop watching these and forget about kitbashing until it's releases ;-;
Holy hell
Babe wake up, Derf just dropped a banger
shocked you only use the dragon staff once i already plan on using it for head dress of knight armor
What program do you use to make the video thumbnails? They look awesome!!!
I can already tell I'm going to be spending an ungodly amount of time making minis once kit bashing is public
Don't know if this would be helpful in any way, but a while ago I started using a "test colour" on my figures: Giving the entire figure a colour that will not be in the end product and really stands out (for me, it's usually the latex pink, since it's a very bright colour that will stand out and that I never found a use for in a character). That way, I can more easily see, if I forgot to colour a visible part. And once I'm happy with how it looks, I just delete it from the figures colour palette to get rid of the seams.
need kitbashing now 😭
Quick question about Kitbashing, can you manipulate the base that the mini stands on, like can you make it bigger or smaller or even import a second base?
I do not believe so, no, but you can in baseline HF get a double-sized base if you use the old Mount base template
@@Derfholm okay, thanks for letting me know!
What do you use to make the images of the model in the thumbnail?
Lets gooooo
I didn’t even know they had a kitbashing system. Been using hero forge for a long time, but have always wanted to change things about the minis. Is this still available to download and test out or do I have to wait until it releases?
Coming up on july 16th for free users from looks of it.
you should try to make a lionfolk model. i have a dnd charakter who is a lionin but i have no idea how to start.
there is a lionfolk in Heroforge
I got to ask, have you ever messed around with DAZ 3d, Character creater, 4 or iclone 8, or the make human Blender addon?
I regret to say I have not!
@Derfholm look into cgpersia if you need a "trial" run of what Daz, cc4 and iclone 8 can do.
Do we know when Kitbashing is estimated to be released?
On july 16 they reveal it!
does the kitbashing already available for pro user?
love these but i will say the dragonborns dont look draconic enough and the kobolds posing look too similar other than those small things these are all amazing
As awesome as kitbashing is for dragonborn and kobolds, it’s a shame that the coolest reptilian head is still the double model one. Wish kitbashing gave us more options for modifying heads that don’t get face customizer
Let alone no armor or anything to protect animal legs at all :(
@@greenchilistudioz4537 for real! Kitbashing foot armor for animal legs would be great to try but I’m not sure how doable it would be with the kitbashing limit
could you maybe try to make some pretty characters? in the Second-Breakfast kind of goodlooking way?
You mean I can't just make ugly disfigured kobolds forever? >:(
(fine)
@@Derfholm try to think of it as broadening your horizon.
The more you develop an eye for beauty, the better you'll be in making something ugly or disturbing in the future.
I love the track at 11:30 for the cultist assassin, what's the name of it?
Dirge of Drakan/Blood Hunt - two soundtracks with a hidden transition. Both are from Runescape
@@Derfholm thank you very much
How and where do I find this
Do Tommy's constant deaths start to get draining after awhile?
Hahah na it's kind of a funny meme at this point. Though I was mad when Brokk died in the last campaign cause that model cause that model was a banger
@@Derfholm Such is the curse of Tommy. On another note maybe some ghost knights would be neat, as I'd like to see you tackle the concept of possessed armor or what have you
I LOVE KOBOLDS!!!!!
I want kitbashing now 😢😢😢
Yay a new video!
how did you get access to the kit bashing feature?
Pro sub or being youtuber, not sure.
Sucks that is pro subcription only feature . . . OOF :(
i can't whit for kitbashing to be avlalibe, mostly to have one thing i have desperately wanted for years, a helmet with a hood over it
I have not messed commenting here in ages
Will Kit bashing be Pro Only?
Yes they announced it as a pro-subscription feature only
@erynastan2454 titancraft is just sounding better. It has kit bashing, it has no limit, it is free.
@@LordDawnWreaver Doesn't have face customizer though those faces are so stiff and similar and you don't need pro for that in Heroforge. So to each its own
@erynastan2454 *clears throat* one-time purchase. Plus, free pieces
@erynastan2454 when you buy a miniature, you can download it again if you lose it for some reason, plus it unlocks the pieces you can use on other miniatures. There are also free pieces you don't even need to buy.
Nice of them to put a rainbow in the background for Pride Month.
What is it with using the exact same damn face for both Dragonborn and kobolds?….HeroForge has more then 1 dragon character face you know
EDIT: Ok at least the Dragonborn captain has a different face
Also dear God the hot take of draconic/lizardfolk characters looking “wrong” in plate armor is very out there lmfao 😂
Even the Dragonborn's face is 50% Kobold. The reason is simply because I think the actual Dragonborn faces in HF look kinda terrible. The Kobold face is a rare outlier among the beast faces that actually looks good, so I use it for a lot of things, even werewolves
Nah just pull the "you've been chosen by destiny" devine resurrection on da kobold, Bahamut would not stand for a dragon cult
Any word on when kitbashing is finally coming to us plebs? They just tripled the price of printing all my models, so I'm hoping to at least finally see a rise in the quality.
There will be a heroforge live next month talking about kitbashing I believe. Don’t remember the exact date tho
@@PedroFerreira-ne3jv - I'll look for it. I think I unsubscribed, when I saw the designers started including their pronouns.
@@fleetcenturion the live stream is on July 16, and will be on Twitch.
@@fleetcenturionwhy?
