Afanc by Primal Collectibles

In the black waters beneath the mountain lake, something ancient has stirred — and the village fishermen have not returned for three days.

• ✔ 32mm scale resin miniature, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted and ready to prime
• ✔ Compatible with D&D, Pathfinder, and all tabletop RPGs
• ✔ Equally at home on the gaming table or the display shelf

Drawn from Welsh mythology, the Afanc is a primordial lake monster of terrifying scale and ferocity — a creature that has haunted Celtic legend for centuries and translates brilliantly to the tabletop as a boss encounter or wandering lake threat. This sculpt from Primal Collectibles' Chronicles of Excalibur range captures the beast mid-lunge, its crocodilian jaws stretched wide, thick scaled hide bristling with dorsal spines, and powerful clawed limbs braced as if seconds from launching itself at whatever foolish enough to approach its lair. The base is strewn with skulls — silent testament to those who didn't make it back from the water's edge.

Three distinct poses are available in this range, each capturing a different aspect of the Afanc's predatory menace: one rearing up with tail coiled high, one bearing down in a low frontal charge, and one caught mid-stalk across rocky terrain. All three share the same ferocious detail and presence. Whether you're running one pose or collecting the full trio, each stands as a centrepiece-worthy figure for gaming and display alike.

Perfect for adventurers who:

• Need a memorable aquatic or wilderness boss encounter for D&D 5e or other TTRPGs
• Are running Arthurian-themed or Celtic mythology-inspired campaigns
• Want a large-scale creature to anchor a display shelf or diorama
• Are looking for a characterful painting project with rich surface texture

Encounter Hook:
The party is hired to investigate the disappearance of a merchant barge on Lake Gwen. As they row out to the last known position, the water beneath their boat suddenly goes still — and then the Afanc erupts from directly below them, splintering the hull and scattering the adventurers into the freezing dark.

Details

Supplied at 32mm scale. The model and decorative base come as separate pieces for ease of painting — note that several poses interact closely with the base scenery, so the base is well worth including. Minor imperfections from the print process are possible and can be cleaned up easily before priming. The model arrives fully cured and support-removed, ready for paint or display straight away.
