Today we want to show you to the work of RN Estudio, creators of the miniature series called Mythexplorers 4, protagonist of this review. This product is for those who want to take the hobby of modeling and miniature games at an advanced level. RN Estudio deals with sculpture and 3D printing, resin models, crowdfunding management and, of course, painting miniatures. Their motto is to provide a friendly and high quality service, with free shipping all over the world.
We received a set of various miniatures; the studio specializes in fantasy, and has given us the opportunity to evaluate very different subjects. If this review intrigues you and you would like to try RN Estudio products, you can visit their official store. You will find various sets of miniatures. The most interesting ones for me are Mythexplorers, 32mm resin pieces, designed for both role-playing and collecting. Post Apocalyptic covers a more niche sector and comprehends also resin pieces. You will find 75mm miniatures and busts too. And, of course, you can ask them for custom projects.
Review of the Mythexplorers 4 Sets by RN Estudio
We met RN Estudio through two of its major projects in the recent past. The Kickstarter RN Estudio 3 New Fantasy Football Teams, linked to Mythbowl, one of the studio’s main projects; that’s a football game with fantasy creatures, with some references to the more famous Bloodbowl. Several teams are available: the barbaric Celthunder or the elusive Rodents, the Ceratops saurians or the Amphibians reptiles. And then Reapers, Revenants, Ancestrals and various other teams, which bring the most famous races of fantasy imaginary to Mythbowl.
The other project, also funded through Kickstarter, is Mythexplorers IV: RPG miniatures. Which allowed to expand the RN Estudio offer with miniatures designed explicitly for fantasy role-playing games. We received some miniatures that belong to this set. So we asked two of our friends, Jacopo Deidda and Andrea Rebella, to paint some of the minis. We thank them for doing some tests, to give an idea of how they react to color.
Models Analysis
The miniatures are very nice. The subjects are quite varied, and allow some flexibility. Especially when used for role-playing campaigns. For board games and wargames the other lines of RN Estudio are certainly more suitable. In any case, they are enough to cover a little of all the classic archetypes of the genre. Modding lovers can have fun customizing them further.
The models are quite solid, without too fragile joints that could be damaged in shipping. They are fairly detailed, but not too much; this certainly allows you not to have to choose too elaborate color palettes. Of course, those who love the more detailed miniatures might suffer a littlefor this reason, but this is a great compromise compared to other simpler products. The non-smooth surfaces have a good texture, and the grooves are well carved, helping to give a good depth to the model.
Conclusions of the Review of Mythexplorers 4 by RN Estudio
In a market that is growing but also saturating rather quickly, RN Estudio decided to produce high quality miniatures. The range offered is still rather limited, although it is compensated by the possibility of ordering customized models at low cost.
Overall, their miniatures are quite satisfying; for this category they are of very high quality, and are able to satisfy the needs of a wide range of players. The range of models is periodically expanded, allowing ever wider choices. They are also quite satisfying to paint, which is not so common. Definitely miniatures with an excellent price / quality ratio, which will help you expand your collection!
