    Not that I haven’t already built campaigns around AMFES minis, but I would absolutely build a new one around those!

    Oh man, there's going to be a second set? I thought my wallet was safe...

    (Though that does explain why there aren't any werewolves...)

    Really love these minis. Printed out a set of line art fighters and rogues and hand colored my own Redbrand Gang for the Mines of Phandelver campaign.

    Quick question. In the Spring and Summer sets, there is a Bookmark pane that allows for very easy navigation to the main categories of minis. This feature is missing in the Autumn and Summer sets. Do you plan on going back and adding the bookmarks to the files? Autumn and Winter feel much more awkward to navigate compared to Spring and Summer.

    Other than that one suggestion, just wanted to say kudos and that I really appreciate the work you put into these things :)

    I do have to say I love all the sets. Minorly bugs me that a few of the core classes got left out, but there's enough here period to make me happy regardless.

    Is there any word yet on when we might see the next set come out? I really love these sets and have been getting a ton of mileage out of them, but there are still a few notable exclusions that I have trouble working around. Specifically, my players are at a point where they may be delving into a story arc fighting illithids, and there are no mind flayers or mind flayer-adjacent creatures other than grimlocks in the current sets. For now, I pasted an octopus over the head of a necromancer, but that falls a liiiittle bit short of perfection. XD

    I'd imagine intellectual property issues would prevent any illithids (parody is protected speech, but just having some miniatures is not parody). No idea if there is some public domain creature that would be close enough in appearance.

    Pretty sure one of the miniature sets (can't remember which one, I think Fall?) has a copyrighted monster with the phrase "wink wink" on it. I want to say it was the Rust Monster, but Rich called it an "Oxidation Monster" (making it read as: Oxidation Monster (wink wink)).

    I'm away from my laptop right now, so I could be misremembering all this. If I'm correct, though, it likely means Rich can use copyrighted monsters in the minis by simply renaming them.

    There are also Neogi under a different spelling, and some Oz creatures, plus others.

    The next set will probably be in the Spring 2019, but I wouldn't expect those particular monsters to necessarily be in it. I'll be doing a whole second round of seasons, and squiggly psionic creatures will probably be in either Summer or Winter, I haven't decided yet.

    Rich, I will put an extra $20 in the PWYW field if you officially name them that.

    Dang. Then again, at the rate my campaign moves, that could still be in time. XD

    Thanks for the update!

    Rich, may we use screen captures of these monsters as tokens for online RPGs like on Roll20?
