Hydra Sphinx Multi Head Bust by Witchsong Miniatures

Five heads. One body. No mercy — the Hydra Sphinx does not speak in riddles; it speaks in screams.

• ✔ 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

This extraordinary display bust captures a truly unsettling chimeric entity — a sphinx-like figure whose feathered, scale-covered shoulders erupt into five distinct heads: a central humanoid face twisted in a contemptuous snarl, flanked by two bestial wolf-like skulls and two further demonic visages, each crested with bone-like horns or jagged spines. The sculpt's sheer density of surface detail — interlocking feathers, coiling organic growths around the plinth base, and deep-set facial expressions with bared fangs — makes this a remarkable centrepiece for any painter who wants a genuinely challenging project.

Mounted on a decorative sculpted plinth with scroll-work and runic detailing, the bust presents as a complete display piece right out of the box. Whether you're drawn to it as a painting challenge, a shelf centrepiece, or a visual anchor for a multi-headed creature encounter in your campaign, the Hydra Sphinx commands attention from every angle. Think of it as the physical manifestation of a creature that has consumed lesser monsters and wears their faces as trophies.

Perfect for adventurers who:

• Want a multi-head painting project with distinct skin, fur, and scale textures across a single piece
• Are building a collection of large-scale fantasy display busts
• Need a powerful visual reference or prop for a sphinx, hydra, or chaos-entity encounter
• Play or run games in settings where aberrations and bound chimeric horrors feature heavily

Encounter Hook:
The party has spent three sessions searching for the Oracle of the Shattered Veil — only to discover it is no serene prophet, but a Hydra Sphinx chained beneath the ruined temple, each head speaking a different fragment of the prophecy in a different voice, some weeping, some laughing, one simply screaming without pause. The players must piece together the message before the chains give way.
