It’s time for a new story…

Shoshie’s team of women artists have created high-quality scale models for miniature painters and gamers who dare to re-imagine what we create and how we play.

Cat Daddy

I'm producing a series of male Demi-Human figures in 54mm scale that are designed with the female gaze in mind. From the concept art to the sculpting, almost every aspect of these figures is designed by women, bringing a diverse perspective to miniatures.
Introducing our latest addition to the miniature hobby: *Cat Daddy.* This limited-edition miniature of a Half-Orc challenges traditional fantasy tropes of Orcs by representing the gentle sweet side of men. So many people asked me for a mini with a “Dad-bod” type of build and asked me to have him with cute animals. This model represents a large swath of men who may not realize that other people requested not only a model that represented them but that celebrated them.

**The pre-order will be open for only 4 days from**
**Thursday, September 28 at 12:00 pm CST until Sunday, October 1st at 12:00pm (UTC -6)**

Let’s go where no man has gone before!

Why do this? Things are pretty cool now, aren’t they?

Great question! Let’s start with a little about me, I’m Shoshie Bauer, an internationally acclaimed award-winning miniature painter and teacher who has pulled together a phenomenal group of women artists.

Wishing for a Soul miniature. Hand painted by Shoshie Bauer. — We’re doing something no one has done before

I had a pretty traditional background.
My BA is in 2-D Studio Art, I was a **professional Fine Art Watercolorist** **for seven years, and I’ve** **taught and painted minis** for over nine years.
Now I’ve created a line of miniatures that are anything but traditional.

The male gaze is everywhere in the arts, from movies to comic books and video games, and more.
And we wonder why fewer girls discover the joys of immersing themselves in entirely different worlds, like D&D or Warhammer!
I created Shoshie’s Minis to **invite in a whole new audience** **who will see themselves, and their perspective reflected my work.**

It’s my hope that my art will show people what’s possible.
Doing things differently will create a whole new market of people who will venture into our hobby world and *make it even better!*

I’m using the build guide that @sixthsacrifice made to work on painting the Goblin Dragon. He suggested painting the head in parts since there are so many layers in it. So far so good! It’s definitely a challenging build so far! #kingdomd

Senior De@th High Alistair from @kingdomdeath was an amazing and challenging model to paint but I think the biggest challenge will be shipping it to my client! #kingdomdeath #miniaturepainting #miniatures #kingdomdeath #shoshiesminis

Black Knight from @kingdomdeath this is the first time I’ve painted this model using Non-Metallic Metal! I feel pretty happy with it! #kingdomdeath #blackknight #shoshiesminis #miniaturepainting

Making headway on the @kingdomdeath Black Knight! It’s the first time I’ve tried painting this model using Non-Metallic Metals rather than metallic paints. I am using the work of Branislav Babovic as inspiration on the metals go check out

I started working on this Black Knight by @kingdomdeath. I have to say the plastic version is just as good if not better than the original resin cast version!
I painted one back in 2016 and I wanted to see if I could pull off the vibe in the same way
