Crocodile Hunchback by Epic Miniatures

Something massive shoulders through the undergrowth at the river's edge — scales like river stones, jaws bound with iron rope, and a curved blade that gleams with the promise of violence.

• ✔ Multi-miniature bundle — multiple variations in one order
• ✔ 32mm scale resin, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ All pieces supplied unpainted and ready to prime
• ✔ Great value for building out encounter groups or display collections

The Crocodile Hunchback is a genuinely imposing large-sized creature sculpt — a bipedal crocodilian powerhouse with an armoured, heavily scaled carapace that humps up over its shoulders like a natural siege tower. Its jaws are lashed shut with iron-wound rope and reinforced with crude spikes, suggesting a beast that has been partially — and very unwisely — tamed. One claw grips a vicious hooked scythe-blade, its edge serrated and flanged; the other is raised and ready. The sculpt sits on a 51mm decorative base, and the detail across every scale, claw, and bound fang rewards even the most ambitious painter.

This bundle includes both the plain base and decorated base versions, giving you the flexibility to choose whichever suits your table or display shelf. The Crocodile Hunchback works equally well as a painted centrepiece on a collector's shelf or as a menacing encounter piece dropped onto the gaming table when your party least expects it.

This is a large model with a commanding physical presence — low-slung, wide-shouldered, and forward-leaning in a posture that reads as pure aggression. The textural variety alone — smooth belly scales transitioning to roughened dorsal plates and prominent bone spurs along the spine — gives painters a wealth of techniques to explore, from stippling and drybrushing to wet-blending reptilian skin tones.

Suited to adventurers who:

• Need a large-sized beast encounter that doesn't look like an off-the-shelf monster
• Are running swamp, jungle, or Underdark campaigns with dangerous fauna
• Want a creature that could serve as an enforcer, a warbeast, or a corrupted guardian
• Are looking for a rewarding centrepiece painting project with serious textural complexity
• Want both base options without paying full price twice

Encounter Hook

The merchant Aldric swore the creature was chained — properly chained, with enchanted iron. But when the party enters the flooded lower vaults of the Siltmoor Compound, they find the chain still attached to the wall, and the anchor-post lying ten feet away. Something very large has been through here recently. The Crocodile Hunchback is still in the building.
