Researcher Bundle by Novaminis

Behind every mad experiment and forbidden discovery, someone in a lab coat had to sign off on the paperwork — and not all of them survived the process.

• ✔ 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

This Researcher Bundle from Novaminis brings you two distinctly different scholarly figures, each with their own story to tell on the tabletop.

Researcher 01 is a broad-shouldered, bald-headed figure caught mid-experiment — arms raised, holding a flask aloft and clutching it to his chest simultaneously, his expression one of intense, slightly unhinged focus. His long buttoned coat and laced boots suggest a man who spends long hours in the laboratory but is not above getting his hands dirty. He works equally well as an alchemist gone wrong, a rogue artificer, or the dangerous scientist behind whatever the players are about to discover.

Researcher 02 is a confident, sharp-featured woman with an elaborate braided updo, a fitted button-through lab coat, and a stack of notes tucked under one arm. Her stance — one hand on her hip, weight shifted — communicates that she is not here to be questioned. She suits a lead researcher, an arcane academic, an intelligence contact, or a villain with a clipboard and a plan.

Both figures carry that distinctive Novaminis quality: clear silhouettes, character-forward poses, and the kind of expressive detail that rewards a careful paint job. Whether your campaign leans towards gothic horror experiments, arcane steampunk institutions, or the underbelly of a city's magical research guild, these two bring immediate presence to any scene.

This bundle is the most practical way to add both variants to your collection in one go — useful for DMs who want variety in their NPC roster or painters who like a thematic pair for display.

Particularly well suited for adventurers who:

• Run urban or dungeon-crawl campaigns with morally ambiguous NPCs
• Need a quest-giver, villain, or plot-critical scholar at the table
• Enjoy painting expressive, character-rich humanoid figures
• Want a matched pair of researchers for a display diorama or encounter scene

Encounter Hook: The party has been hired to retrieve a stolen artefact from a private research facility. When they arrive, they find Researcher 01 barricaded in his laboratory, clutching an unstable alchemical flask and refusing to hand it over — while Researcher 02 stands in the corridor outside, arms folded, insisting the party go in and reason with him before he destroys the building.
