Patreon Intro
Heeey!
I'm John Yakimow, artist, character designer, and sculptor of 3D printables!
Battle Yak Miniatures is my 3D printable miniatures creation label, where I sculpt and share highly detailed 3D printable files with the tabletop gaming and 3D printing communities.
With Battle Yak Miniatures, you'll find printable miniature designs, stylishly inspired by my most beloved gaming entertainment properties, from video games like Darkest Dungeon and the Darksiders series, to tabletop games like Warhammer, Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, and Arkham Horror. The characters and creatures available here for printing boast elements of dark fantasy, sci-fi, eldritch horror, and retrofuturistic genres, perfect for RPG, wargaming, or just to collect and paint!

With the magic* of 3D printing, I can finally make that dream come true, and share the results with the tabletop community!
