Classic Goblin Fisherman by Epic Miniatures

He's not the biggest threat in the forest — but he saw the party coming three minutes before they spotted him, and the fish he's holding is suspiciously large for a river that was supposed to be empty.

This goblin is not going to war today — but don't mistake a fishing rod for a lack of menace. Armed with a rough-hewn wooden pole and proudly hoisting a whopping scaled catch, this goblin fisherman radiates the particular self-satisfaction of someone who has just won an argument with nature. His layered roughspun tunic, rope-wrapped bracers, and tattered kilt speak to a life spent outdoors and largely unbothered by civilised opinion. His broad, expressive face is set in a grin that suggests he knows exactly where the good fishing spots are — and he's not going to tell you.

The sculpt captures a goblin at rest but watchful: one hand planted on his hip with practised arrogance, the other gripping his pole with the easy confidence of a creature who feeds himself well. The fish dangling from the line is scaled and detailed enough to be a piece in its own right. A scattered rockface and tufted ground form the scenic base, giving the whole piece a lived-in, outdoorsy character that rewards careful painting — from the rope-wrapped legs and claw-tipped feet to the loose braided hair tied back for a day's work by the water.

This miniature ships on either a plain base or the integrated scenic base depending on the variant chosen at checkout. It is a multipart piece that assembles cleanly before priming.

Adventurers who will love this miniature:

• Dungeon Masters stocking a goblin village, riverside camp, or swamp settlement with lived-in character
• Players building a goblin rogue, ranger, or druid character who is more forager than fighter
• Painters who want a narrative-rich, technically interesting sculpt with distinct textures — scales, rope, cloth, bark
• Collectors putting together a slice-of-goblin-life diorama or wilderness scatter scene

Encounter Hook

The party is following a river upstream when they spot a lone goblin on the bank, wholly absorbed in fishing and apparently unaware of them. A successful Perception check reveals a second fishing line tied to a branch twenty feet away — but nobody is holding it. Something is watching from the treeline, waiting to see what the adventurers do next.
