Carrion Snail by Epic Miniatures

It moves slowly — but the adventurers who assumed that meant safely did not live to correct the assumption.

The Carrion Snail is one of those creatures that weaponises wrongness — every detail of its body seems to defy what biology should allow. The sculpt captures a bloated, warty mass of flesh hauling itself forward on a broad muscular foot, its hide erupting in clusters of knobbled pustules, coiled markings, and ridged spines that jut from its back like broken blades. At its front, a gaping maw lined with recurved teeth tears the air open, flanked by whip-thin sensory stalks and frilled, fleshy appendages that curl and grasp. Secondary mouth-like structures cluster beneath the creature's chin, each rimmed with their own serrated teeth — as though the Carrion Snail cannot decide how many ways it wishes to feed.

The sculpt is mounted on a large 51mm oval base that suits the creature's footprint without overpowering the detail work. Adventurers can choose between a base included or no-base option depending on their basing preferences or display needs. Every angle rewards the painter — whether you're picking out the iridescent slick of its hide, the mucus-wet gleam of its teeth, or the unhealthy bruised tones of its underbelly, there is texture here to keep a brush busy for hours.

As a Large creature, the Carrion Snail fills the table with genuine presence, making it a compelling centrepiece for dungeon encounters or a disturbing entry in a display collection of aberrant horrors.

Adventurers who'll love this miniature:

• Dungeon Masters running sewer, underdark, or swamp-crawl encounters who want a creature that reads as genuinely wrong
• Painters drawn to textured organic sculpts — warty hide, layered teeth, and grasping appendages beg for contrast painting and washes
• Collectors building out a gallery of aberrant or abyssal monstrosities
• Anyone who wants a Large creature that earns its space on the board without a word of explanation

Encounter Hook

The party follows a trail of stripped bones and viscous slime deep into the sewers beneath the city — and finds the Carrion Snail wedged between two collapsed archways, methodically dissolving a merchant's remains with its secondary maws while its primary teeth work at the iron door ahead. It has not noticed them yet. The question is whether they run, fight in the narrow tunnel, or try to squeeze past while it feeds.
