This is pose 02 of our Cockatrice range from Novaminis, and it makes an immediate impression. The creature is sculpted mid-threat display — rearing back on its taloned feet, leathery wings fully extended with fine membrane detail across each bone spar, and its beaked maw thrown open in a rasping shriek. The dorsal spines, scaled underbelly, and heavy clawed feet are rendered with the kind of surface texture that rewards a careful paint job. Whether you're layering up ochre scales or going full feathered-serpent with contrast paints, there's real depth here to work with.
In D&D 5e, the cockatrice is a CR 1/2 monstrosity with a petrifying bite — deceptively dangerous for low-level parties who underestimate it. This sculpt captures that energy precisely: it looks like something a farmer might report near the henhouse, until it absolutely isn't. Use it as a lone wandering threat, a nest guardian, or the unwilling pet of a hag who finds its petrifying gaze rather useful.
A fine choice for adventurers who:
- Run low-to-mid level D&D or TTRPG encounters and want a creature that looks genuinely threatening on the table
- Are building a wilderness hex, cursed farmland, or monster hunter campaign
- Enjoy painting creatures with complex textures — scales, membranes, and spines all in one sculpt
- Collect monstrosities for display or as part of a bestiary shelf
Encounter Hook:
The village elder swears it's just a large bird nesting in the old grain store — but the three farmhands who went to investigate haven't moved or spoken in four days. They're still standing in the doorway, grey-faced and cold to the touch, wearing expressions of absolute surprise.

Supplied at 32mm scale. Available with or without a plain black base — the base comes unattached and can be fixed with a small amount of glue. Some minor marks from support removal may be present; these are easily tidied up before priming. Every piece is fully cured and ready for paint.
