Lizardfolk Warrior Axe & Shield by Epic Miniatures

From the reed-choked shallows it comes — scales gleaming, jaws wide, axe already swinging before you've had a chance to draw steel.

• ✔ 32mm scale resin miniature, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted and ready to prime
• ✔ Compatible with D&D, Pathfinder, and all tabletop RPGs
• ✔ Equally at home on the gaming table or the display shelf

This lizardfolk warrior cuts an imposing silhouette — a scaled, ridge-crested fighter mid-stride, hatchet-style hand axe raised in one claw and a broad tortoiseshell shield braced in the other. The sculpt leans into the creature's predatory nature: the jaws are open in a threat display, rows of teeth bared, a dorsal fin-crest sweeping back from the skull. The body is covered in overlapping scale texture from snout to tail-tip, with spiked pauldrons, plated forearm guards, and a layered abdominal chest piece suggesting armour worked from bone and chitin rather than smith-forged metal.

The tail curls low behind the stance, lending the figure a coiled, ready-to-lunge quality. Every surface is rich with detail — the knobbly texture of the shield's shell, the ridged talons on each foot, the articulated tail scales visible from behind. This is a miniature that rewards a careful paint job: pick out individual scales in earthy greens and tawny browns, drybrush the armour plates in bone yellow, and ink the recesses for instant depth.

Whether you're statting out a lizardfolk war party guarding a yuan-ti temple, introducing a rival tribal champion as a recurring antagonist, or fielding a lizardfolk Fighter or Barbarian as a player character, this sculpt carries the weight of a creature that has survived in unforgiving terrain by being very, very good at violence.

Suits adventurers who:

• Need a characterful lizardfolk soldier or champion for swamp, jungle, or river encounters
• Are running a lizardfolk-centric tribe, warband, or faction in their campaign
• Want a distinctive miniature for a Lizardfolk Fighter or Barbarian player character
• Enjoy a paint project with varied surface textures — scales, shell, bone armour, and leathery hide all in one sculpt
• Are building a display piece that stands out on the shelf without needing a scenic base

Encounter Hook

The party's river barge runs aground on a sandbar at dusk. Before the crew can pole free, a series of low clicks echoes across the water — and then this warrior steps from the reeds, shield raised, axe levelled, four more silhouettes visible behind it. The lizardfolk have held this stretch of river for a century. They did not invite guests.
