Special thanks to everyone who participated by throwing their names into the ring! Let me know below what you'd like me to focus on next now that I'm free of this monster-project
I would still love to see a video on gods/celestials. Or even just Greek characters in general because the "Sword and Sandal" style is very often forgotten about in Heroforge.
You’ve made faction like stuff before(like the vampire kingdom vid) and I was thinking if you would ever make a Japanese like dynasty or something like that? You could make Oni, Yokai(idk if Oni’s are yokai or not.), human civilization/nation and I’d say dragon but there’s sadly no real dragons yet.
Scarring and prosthetics. Would love to see someone with more experience in this system find cool ways to present injuries and prostheses, which are kinda lacking in community, outside of very basic decal work, and the already provided prosthetic options.
Heroforge does 100% have an issue with the legs being too short, which is an issue I solve by simply using heeled shoes. Specifically mechanical heels since I typically work with sci-fi, and they can easily pass as regular shoes
For a service that let us build miniatures in the 28 or 30mm Heroscale i Think it's ok. But the Site has pushed these boundaries for a long time. The Bodymodel deserves a update.
One issue I have is that short characters can only have massive heads, there's leeway for larger characters, but I can't have a dwarf without them looking like a bobblehead.
The reason the colours are so desaturated is because I just found out the colours on my monitor have been completely off this whole time😭😭😭 I thought I was making really saturated characters this whole time but they have been so muted!
I have the opposite issue lol, I keep trying to make really subtly colored characters and then when I view them on other devices the colors are all wild and crazy!
I need Gettar to know that when you showed new the plague doctor, my jaw hit the floor. I literally spent the next 30 minutes loosing my shit over how AMAZING that piece is. Masterful execution, incredible detail, it’s a legitimate work of art,
The object layering and detailing you do has been a massive inspiration for me. I have an alchemist character and it was a joy to add all the little vials and stains everywhere much like the 2nd character here. I'm looking forward to shamelessly stealing more techniques.
I am eating humble pie right now, when I got this in my recommendations, I scoffed that people treated heroforge models with a sense of artistry because I always found the system limiting, but... Damn... I think I found a new corner of UA-cam to thoroughly explore.
I’m eating through your videos like cherries. Really useful tips and love to see the reworked characters. Never thought techniques there were so many tricks.
These videos have totally changed my approach to models. The stuff I’ve been doing lately, thanks to these tutorials, is light years beyond where I started. Thank you! 🙏
That's mostly because Heroforge default body option are messed up. The first thing you should to it's increase the height slider to like 7' )or anyway near the “XL zone”) to have an average adult proportions. I remeber Derf himself doing a video about that, you should search in his archive.
Yes! All of the ones that don't use glitches anyway. Floating bodies like the model by Second Breakfast or the floating chef's hat on my Orc may be problematic.
Awesome content and awesome job by everyone! Any chance you could show us how to make a Leonin? Specifically a Leonin monk lol? I play one in a campaign with some friends but have never been able to find a good mini for it so I tried to make one on Heroforge using the base Lionfolk model. I feel like it's missing something, but don't know how to make it pop like you and the community do.
Hey Derf, if you have any tips for doing canine faces in HF, particularly pitbulls, would you consider sharing them? I'm struggling trying to create a pitbull war cleric.
Every time these open up I do official announcement videos to let people know well ahead in time. After that you just follow the instructions and post your model with a description in the Discord! Rest assured it's quite hard to miss when it happens
Speaking of the characters having short legs - are there plans to do an update to the model sliders just like the face modification got? Would be awfully nice to have option to support more real-life, non-chiby proportions.
The difference between a Vampire and a Dhampir is A Vampire is well….a Vampire and a Dhampir is someone who’s only half Vampire Think Alucard from Castlevania Another example of a Dhampir would be Blade from Marvel
Does anyone know what music is playing when Derf is making the third model? Also, I realllly liked how that model turned out :D Excellent job as always Derf!
Dang. I haven't done any forging in a while (also had to give up my premium status for a bit), but I wish I'd been paying attention to submit one of mine. I'd love to see what somebody could do to them. Nice stuff everyone!
With the whole “glitch” of using a second body to add details, does this actually work for ordering printed minis or do the printers get confused with the model?
They print fine. The problem is just that it'll cost as much as 2 models if they are clipped together. In addition to that- the 1st model would probably have issues since the floating hat is actually a glitch. So, that one, probably not
Both. I'll definitely learn it and play with it, but I also know it will be Pro-only and a large portion of the community won't be able to touch it, so, a large part of my focus will remain on traditional models
I post announcement videos before I do these so you'll know. But, to submit the models you need to be in the Discord server, the link of which is in the description below the video
It's an old glitch called the 'Floating Body' glitch. There's a lot of APR links for it out there in the community. The legs are easy since with those it's just about chopping off a body, but you'll need to find someone who can give you actual legless floating body first. If you join my DIscord and ask around I'm sure someone in there can hand it to you
I found a legless link as well as taking alook at the model shown in the vid, but I cannot figure out how Second Breakfast made the floating body float that high
Wish we have more hairstyles and not utilize the horn method too much, I often felt like models be crap, especially they are not overlly edgy or detail in makeup or whatever artisim I don't understand . . .
7:53 Why am I getting the sense this guy is one of those clowns who browses art sites and nitpicks every little thing that doesn't fit with his personal style? Edit: Okay, he completely lost me at the sixth model. Being "too true" to the model is something you don't want in a video where that is the damn point? Not to mention, it's complete BS.

@@Arlondev Greek characters is an excellent call (not biased)
Half-human/half-mythical beast would be cool

Yeah I think there's some truth to it too, but I'm not a huge fan of any of the available solutions tbh

Could you share your monitor settings, problem solved then xD

I've been doing Hero Forge all wrong this whole time. Thank you for the random suggestion, youtube. Instant subscriber. No brainer. This was awesome.
Ahhh can't believe my name got chosen, it's me, [ABOMINATION NAME]. Thanks to Derf and Sechzig Rayner, that looks so amazing.
No problem! Glad you liked my rework!
I love it, it's greek statue levels of posing!@@SechzigRayner
Awesome work by everybody, and Derf that alchemist really rocks. And nice horn hairs for the fire monk :3
Tyty and nice penguin
Glad you find it :D@@Derfholm
I am eating humble pie right now, when I got this in my recommendations, I scoffed that people treated heroforge models with a sense of artistry because I always found the system limiting, but... Damn... I think I found a new corner of UA-cam to thoroughly explore.
Hahahah welcome to the crew we've all been there (myself included)
@@Derfholm Glad to be here you madman, I've already started bingeing your videos, RIP Hamhaunch
Bro spent the whole 6th model riffing on laughing jackal lmao
It’s finally here! Love to see the upload, let’s see who gets the model reforgings!
I was hoping we'd see another one of these. It's my favourite series on this channel.
Congrats on everyone who got there models remodeled. And amazing work from the remodelers
Thank you Cheese, you did a much better job than I ever could
Solid work reworkers and congratulations to those selected
Side note: Gettar gaining Pro is going to be a menace
still not there, but once kitbashing is dropped… who knows? XD
Loved how you did the orc face for the first one; would love to also get a tutorial on how you did it
Congratulations to all winners
M.A.Netanel here.
Came to say that the model looks really cool. Good video as always.
i didnt think id need videos looking at heroforge creations but here i am and loving it
I’m eating through your videos like cherries.
Really useful tips and love to see the reworked characters.
Never thought techniques there were so many tricks.
Btw, how do I join the discord?
The existence of an arm length slider but no leg length slider is wild to me
I remove my bird mask only to reveal a second, smaller bird mask underneath
Congrats to everyone who got picked!
And thank YOU for being a reworker
@@Derfholmhow does one become a reworker, I would like to at least try?
Do any of ya'll do commissions? I would love to actually get my character done in this level of quality!
You know it's a good century when Derf uploads
I wonder how much of this stuff works with the free, base app for making actual minis
OH MY GOD I WAS THE LAST NAME I AM SHAKING RN
Thank you. The TheJuice
EHM HALLO?! Didn't know that you could do all of that with heroforge! Impressive.
LETS FREAKINGG GOOOOO
Thankyouthankyou for all the helb Cheese
These videos have totally changed my approach to models. The stuff I’ve been doing lately, thanks to these tutorials, is light years beyond where I started. Thank you! 🙏
meerkatman's model looked like he was one color choice away from killing aliens with a crowbar.
I'm pissed off with myself because I procrastinated turning my model in and missed the deadline.
Wow!!! I have never seen hero Forge being used like this.
Damn, you're doing things I didn't know you could do!
It's available for everyone now!
So cool, need to learn how to work it for my medusa ranger mini
at this point it do feel like winning a lottery to get rework haha
how do you get normal looking models from heroforge???? every time is use it, the character looks like a child's description of whatever race I create
That's mostly because Heroforge default body option are messed up. The first thing you should to it's increase the height slider to like 7' )or anyway near the “XL zone”) to have an average adult proportions. I remeber Derf himself doing a video about that, you should search in his archive.
No way! LaughingJackel made that!! I know that guy, he used to be my neighbor
:O I didnt know you could do so much with Hero Forge. This is so cool. Are these actually printable with this much detail? So cool.
That's what I was curious about. That and how much they would cost with all those extra pieces.
Yes! All of the ones that don't use glitches anyway. Floating bodies like the model by Second Breakfast or the floating chef's hat on my Orc may be problematic.
Awesome content and awesome job by everyone! Any chance you could show us how to make a Leonin? Specifically a Leonin monk lol?

I’ve never seen Heroforge get used this intensely!
We're very nerdy here............
Hey Derf, if you have any tips for doing canine faces in HF, particularly pitbulls, would you consider sharing them?
I'm struggling trying to create a pitbull war cleric.
Another awesome video!
Hey Derf, Just found your channel, and i now have been delving into the 2 character morphing.
Do you do commissions by any chance?
How do you use the double modeling to make the boots thinner? I really hate the bulky boots they have given us.
Heya! Would you know a way of making a beard but like one of those short beards (actual textured)? Thx!
Heya!! Just found this video and it's so cool??? I wanted to ask, how would one throw their hat into the ring next time one of these is underway?
Every time these open up I do official announcement videos to let people know well ahead in time. After that you just follow the instructions and post your model with a description in the Discord! Rest assured it's quite hard to miss when it happens
@@Derfholm Alrighty!!! Tysm :D
Speaking of the characters having short legs - are there plans to do an update to the model sliders just like the face modification got?
Would be awfully nice to have option to support more real-life, non-chiby proportions.
Why are you asking about random dude on youtube and not heroforge?
The difference between a Vampire and a Dhampir is
A Vampire is well….a Vampire and a Dhampir is someone who’s only half Vampire
Think Alucard from Castlevania
Another example of a Dhampir would be Blade from Marvel
i would love to see mine remade😭😭like this is so cool!
Does anyone know what music is playing when Derf is making the third model? Also, I realllly liked how that model turned out :D Excellent job as always Derf!
Shazam friend, hope i'm not too late. Discover - by Julian Surma
@@gamememo2680 Ah! Thank you so much! I didn't realise it was music from Runescape XD
Does second breakfast have any social media? i wanna see more of their works
I second this breakfast suggestion
Dang. I haven't done any forging in a while (also had to give up my premium status for a bit), but I wish I'd been paying attention to submit one of mine. I'd love to see what somebody could do to them. Nice stuff everyone!
this made me realize how lazy im being with my creation im about to remake them all
Yo I thought I was good at designing my characters or Npc, I got humbled really quick
With the whole “glitch” of using a second body to add details, does this actually work for ordering printed minis or do the printers get confused with the model?
Most likely nope, but in digital photoshop coin for online dnd virtual game, than yes.
And I thought I was good at making HeroForge models, turns out I'm an amateur in comparison 🤣
Wooo!!! I LOVE It!!!❤❤❤
I kinda figured I wasn't gonna get chosen, still a great set of models though
Wooooo, derf video!!!!
Do these still print well when you order them? Like with the extra character added and everything?
They print fine. The problem is just that it'll cost as much as 2 models if they are clipped together.
In addition to that- the 1st model would probably have issues since the floating hat is actually a glitch. So, that one, probably not
Brilliant
Damn, maybe I’ll get in next time
Just a little question, when Kitbashing drops do you plan on using that in any of your videos or are you not planning on using it too much?
Both. I'll definitely learn it and play with it, but I also know it will be Pro-only and a large portion of the community won't be able to touch it, so, a large part of my focus will remain on traditional models
Ooooh let's gooooooooooooooooo!
How do you apply for this?
Small question, how do I submit a model for this kind of video.
I post announcement videos before I do these so you'll know. But, to submit the models you need to be in the Discord server, the link of which is in the description below the video
@@Derfholm Thanks, I made sure to join the server earlier.
@@Derfholm one last question, am I allowed to submit more than one model or am I only allowed to submit one
@@JustchillinglolOnly one model-per-user it's allowed, since the wiinners are drafted and everyone must have the same chances to get picked.
How can we send in our creations
Justice for Bobo!
NO! No justice for Bobo
So, how exactly do you do that trick that Second Breakfast uses for longer legs?
It's an old glitch called the 'Floating Body' glitch. There's a lot of APR links for it out there in the community. The legs are easy since with those it's just about chopping off a body, but you'll need to find someone who can give you actual legless floating body first. If you join my DIscord and ask around I'm sure someone in there can hand it to you
thank you.
I found a legless link as well as taking alook at the model shown in the vid, but I cannot figure out how Second Breakfast made the floating body float that high
@@sitrilkohe just increases the height I guess
@@Helios810 tried doing it actually, but with no good results since the upper body scales with height.
yay!
No Schermungern😔
17:19 how do i do this
Shit i dont suppose you take commisions? xD
Dose second breakfast have any social media where they post there hero forge models because i love there style
Bobobo was robbed!
can someone please tell me how second breakfast made the longer legs???

You're absolutely right, it's all subjective
Sorry, can you do me some time in the next one? THANKEE MERRY STUFF
All the models are drawn with a spinning wheel, Derf doesn't select any of it, it's just a lottery
