Discussion Database of Paper Mini Creators and Sources
People have previously asked for a list or database of people who make paper minis. I've thrown together this list so we can add and share. Definitely let me know if you would like any new fields, changes, etc.
For now, this is just for sources/creators, not for individual products. (That may come at a later time.) I also will be considering how best to add thumbnails/previews later. (It's not a technical issue, but a "what to ask for" one.)
View what's in the database: https://airtable.com/shr2f2IFzlxIr8P6L
Submit to the database: https://airtable.com/shrsOW3eNFMal9i1k
At this time, do not include board games that include standees. That is covered on BGG with this great filter. (If you find a board game that isn't marked, earn some geekcoins and submit updates.) BGG Family: Components - Standees
Other fields I considered, but decided is probably too much effort... What do you think? What about other characteristics in art traits ("pixel art")?
- Genre(s): Fantasy, Sci-fi, Western, Historical...
- Also makes: Maps, adventures, etc
If you're not fond of this list, please comment to explain why. (Reddit is reporting a considerable percentage of downvotes, but no one has said anything indicating why that might be.)
EDITS. If I revised fields, I'll need update submissions to get the new data.
- I changed the URL field from 1 entry to multiple lines.
- I added a new "pay methods" traits: "accepts commissions", "commercial use available".

Paper Miniature Shroomtober #3 & #4: Meet the Porcini Porter and the Morel Sage! Two more mushroomfolk paper miniatures π [OC]
My little Shroomtober colony keeps growing! π
For this year's Inktober-inspired challenge, I'm creating 13 mushroomfolk paper miniatures before Halloween, each inspired by a different mushroom species, with its own silhouette, personality and role in the colony.
After the friendly Amanita Shroomfolk and the golden Chanterelle Forager, here are the next two members!
π #3 β Porcini Porter
Someone has to carry all those berries home!
A short, round, sturdy fellow with a broad brown cap, tiny legs and an enormous sack over his shoulder.
He's the strongest back in the forest, and possibly the kindest heart. He carries everything the colony needs, from freshly gathered berries to firewood and whatever strange treasures the others find in the woods.
He's not particularly fast, but he's dependable, endlessly patient and always happy to lend a hand. Just don't ask him to hurry!
π #4 β Morel Sage
Old as the forest, wise as its roots, and just a little forgetful.
Nobody remembers when the Morel Sage first appeared in the colony. His tall, honeycombed cap has weathered countless seasons, and his mossy beard has been growing for longer than most Shroomfolk have been alive.
Leaning on his crooked wooden staff, he wanders the forest sharing ancient wisdom, forgotten stories and occasionally rather questionable advice.
He knows every secret path and every tale the trees have ever whispered. Unfortunately, he sometimes forgets which story he was telling. π
As with the previous characters, I've drawn both from different angles and turned them into double-sided paper miniatures, designed to be easy to print, cut out and use on the tabletop.
I'm really enjoying the challenge of giving each mushroom species a distinctive silhouette while keeping the designs simple enough to work at miniature scale.
4 down, 9 to go!
I've included the character sheets and paper miniature versions in the images.
What do you think of these two? And which mushroom species would you like to see join the colony next?

Paper Miniature Shroomtober: My Inktober-inspired paper minis challenge. Meet the first two mushroomfolk! π
Last October, I challenged myself to draw a paper miniature every day for Goblintober. Somehow, I ended up with a complete 31-goblin warband! This summer, I did something similar with a smaller group of gnomes.
So this October, I'm back with Shroomtober! π
The idea is simple: create 13 original, double-sided paper miniatures before Halloween, all inspired by different real-world mushrooms.
Rather than another traditional warband, I'm building a little woodland community, with villagers, gatherers, guards, adventurers and perhaps a few magic users.
Here are the first two:
π #1 β Amanita Shroomfolk: The basic mushroomfolk. No armour, no weapons, no trousers. Just a friendly little mushroom with arms, enormous feet and a smile.
π #2 β Chanterelle Forager: Inspired by the golden chanterelle, with its distinctive wavy cap and a basket full of freshly gathered berries.
I'm keeping the drawings deliberately simple, with different silhouettes for each mushroom species, and turning each character into a printable, double-sided paper mini.
I've included both the original character sheets and the paper miniature versions in the images.
Two down, eleven to go!
I'd love to hear what you think, especially whether the designs work well as paper minis. And if you have a favourite mushroom species that deserves to become a character, I'm open to suggestions! π
