Evil Sorcerer (Vaelric) Bust by Primal Collectibles

He does not raise his voice to command obedience — Vaelric simply opens the grimoire, and the world rearranges itself to suit his will.

• ✔ Large-scale display bust — significantly bigger than standard 32mm
• ✔ Resin printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted — ideal as a centrepiece painting project
• ✔ Designed for display shelves and painting competitions

Vaelric is the kind of villain who needs no throne room to project authority. Rendered here as a large-scale display bust from Primal Collectibles' Tales of Kreyvos setting, this sculpt captures an ageing sorcerer of considerable menace — deep hood framing a broad, weathered face with a calculating expression, an ornate cross-tipped staff gripped in one hand and an open spell tome held in the other. His robes fall in heavy, layered folds, fastened at the chest with a jewelled brooch and cinched at the waist by a skull-buckled belt. Decorative filigree runs along the robe's lapels, and a gem-studded circlet sits across his brow — the marks of someone who accumulates power like others accumulate scars.

This is a bust sculpt designed to reward patient painters. The deep hood creates dramatic shadow pools across the face; the filigree and chainwork across the chest offer fine detail work; and the heavy cloak provides wide, smooth surfaces that take washes and glazes beautifully. Whether you want to build up a dark, candlelit palette or push contrast with sharp OSL effects, Vaelric's sculpt gives you the canvas to do it. Equally at home anchoring a display shelf or looming over a campaign session as the face of the BBEG, this is a bust that earns its space.

The sculpt comes with both supported and unsupported file variants, and includes a separate decorative base — giving you flexibility in how you present the finished piece.

Well suited to adventurers who:

• Want a centrepiece painting project with rich surface texture and fine detail
• Are building out a Tales of Kreyvos display collection
• Need a compelling, character-driven BBEG face for their campaign table
• Enjoy display busts that reward advanced painting techniques
• Collect sculpts from independent fantasy miniature artists

Encounter Hook

The party has tracked the missing merchants to an abandoned caravanserai three days into the desert. Inside, seated at a long table covered in open scrolls, is a hooded figure who does not look up when they enter. "You've killed four of my apprentices," Vaelric says, still reading. "I'm going to need you to replace them." He closes the tome. The door seals itself behind the party.
