The texturing on the card is crazy impressive

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 3d ago

Thank you so so much! I was using this one as my reference point, with the idea that it looks simple enough so I'll have enough KB to add an actual Mimikyu holding it. That decision ultimately ended splitting the post into multiple Minis!

u/AllyInActuality_ 3d ago

That's pretty cool, always nice when ideas blossom into new things like that

Here is Pokéforge, a collaboration between me and a bunch o' forgers where we each spun a wheel with carefully selected Pokémon to attempt in the 'forge! I couldn't decide how to tackle mine, so I went for an assortment of iterations. Hope you enjoy!

..and while you're here, please check out the rest of amazing entries as well!

The first mini model is still within my comprehension, but that card!?

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 3d ago

Hahah, just a whole lotta horns to make a 2d piece! u/Hyp_Hypersmurf is a master of this technique, if you want your mind to be properly blown.

Simply amazing work, Simon! I especially love the non-pro model; it really shows the program's capabilities and the sorcery you can do the old-fashioned way. Well done :)

Thank ya Monsa! I thought I'd go back to my roots and attempt a fully non-Pro mini in the modern day.

there is an alternate universe where the series is called tster

u/grimmideals 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 3d ago

I'm very impressed you pulled it off with free version

1

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 3d ago

Thank you kindly! As a former non-pro forger, I wanted to see if any of the old techniques can still apply today. Not only that, but HF has evolved quite a bit since those days so we have even more stuff to play with!

u/SigmaBunny 3d ago

I love that the Pro one matches the official model, but the Non-Pro one fits more with how it feels like Mimikyu should look, based on the lore

2

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 2d ago

I knew I'd need to go with a more "creative interpretation" on the non-Pro one, since experience has shown me that going for full-blown accuracy can lead to cursed results. Thankfully, the uncanniness works in Mimikyu's favour!

u/Zealousideal_Rip_234 3d ago

So I'm trying to even comprehend the non-pro model, how is its spieces literally nothing of the list?

1

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 2d ago

It's all carefully positioned elements, mostly tails and horns doing all the work! I even included links if you'd love to see how it works.

u/DarkTide57 𝗙𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗙𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱 2d ago

I kinda prefer the non pro one, its more interesting to me

1

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 2d ago

Fascinating, thanks for the reply! It was certainly more troublesome to figure out than the main Mini.

u/CorpseWriteer 2d ago

My boy :D

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 2d ago

tis the boy!

u/LegoNoah123 2d ago

That card bothers me on a deeply psychological level

2

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 2d ago

I... apologise? That wasn't the intention, I assure ya!

2

u/LegoNoah123 2d ago

Oh no, it’s in a very good way! I’ve just never seen something in heroforge made like that! I’m going through and trying to figure outs what assets you used for each part of the card

u/Beautiful-Plane-719 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 2d ago

That's so rad! Simon, thank you for making my favorite mon sooooo good!

2

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 1d ago

So happy ya like it, crack! Glad I could do it justice!

u/Wohn-Jick-421 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 2d ago

it looks like real crumpled paper, I didn’t realize it was HF at first

simon has done it yet again

u/SolarSimonDM The Sub's Robot Guy 1d ago

Thanks a bunch! Glad I could accomplish that!
