It's been A YEAR! well, another year, same forge, pushing out as many minis a we can month to month! This year started out with a little bit of chaos, lots of travel, out of studio time, wrap ups with projects that impacts my patreon output, trying to strike gold with new minis, but towards the end of the year I felt like I hit a stride, with balancing output, working on games, and collaborations. 2025 has had a lot of ups and downs, but we're ending the year on top! The opportunity to work with Malev on Great Helm minis and with Scott The Miniac on a few projects have been huge highlights, and I'm looking forward to continuing those partnerships.One this that has been brewing for a while in 2025 has been our low level operations as game company alongside operating as a sculpting studio, I think 2026 will be the big jumping off year for Skullforge as game company, fingers crossed!We created a game RONIN, and the playtests have been awesome and really helped me become a better designer, keeping that muscle exercised has been like adding deadlifts to my workout regimen.Public playtests for RONIN will begin in January and we've got a couple of painting competitions in the works for later in the year.Our next game, Firmament, is getting its first draft wrapped up and hopefully playtests will start soon!I've got a lot to be thankful for in 2025, economic troubles have hit a lot of folks this year and I know that as has taken a toll on the hobby budget, and it's taken its own toll here too (and apparently all mini sculpting studios!) , but we're still burning bright! The continued support we have is incredibly humbling and keeps me sculpting everyday! Y'all have so many options these days when it comes to procuring minis and I'm so deeply humbled that you come here and stay, print, paint, chat.Onward to 2026 and remember toPRINT AND PLAY CASUAL!-Jordan
