Description

Something moved in the treeline — and only when it stepped into the light did you realise the forest itself had been watching you all along.

  • ✔ 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

Needle Blights are among the most unsettling of the Blight family: humanoid in silhouette but entirely wrong in every detail. This is the first pose in our Needle Blight range from Novaminis, and it captures that creature at its most menacing — standing upright, arms raised, every inch of its body bristling with sharp, outward-facing spines. Coiling tendrils wrap around its torso, and its hollow, fang-lined maw gives it a grotesque semblance of a face. There is nothing decorative about this sculpt — every spike and writhing vine is deliberate, threatening, and deeply unsettling on the table.

In D&D 5e, Needle Blights lurk in corrupted forests and blighted woodlands, serving as the eyes and claws of Gulthias Trees and dark druids. They're a staple encounter in Curse of Strahd and any Feywild or forest-hex adventure, and this sculpt does full justice to their sinister reputation. Equally at home in a painted display case as it is on a battle map.

A great fit for adventurers who:

  • Are running Curse of Strahd, The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, or any forest-hex campaign
  • Want a visually threatening Plant-type monster that reads clearly at 32mm scale
  • Enjoy painting intricate organic textures — the layered spines and tendrils reward the brush
  • Are building a full Blight encounter with multiple sculpts and poses

Encounter Hook:
The party is three days into the Whisperwood when the ranger notices the pine trees have no shadows — and then one of them turns around. Four Needle Blights step free of the treeline in silence, arms raised, spines already pointing inward toward prey. The Gulthias Tree is close. It already knows you're here.

Details

Supplied at 32mm scale. Available with or without a plain black base — the base is unattached and can be fixed with a small amount of glue. Minis arrive with supports removed and fully cured. As with all hand-finished prints, minor surface marks are possible and can be cleaned up before priming. Ready to paint straight out of the box.
