Meet The four Forgemen
Born from the great Nebula of Insanity and bound with one purpose - to bring to fruition the desires of the boardgame overlords. As we set forth to fulfill the prophecies, secretly crafting our upcoming board game 'Blood Oak – Chapter 1', we have embarked on an epic side quest: diving into the realm of 3D-printed sculptures.
Amidst the captivating landscapes of New Zealand, the Four Forgemen continue their quest, crafting tirelessly, following the cryptic whispers of the shadows and weaving dreams into reality. In the brief span of but a few moon's dances, BFG has quickly woven its name into the tapestry of the community, renowned for conjuring exquisite, otherworldly creations of the highest order.
Now, as the veils of destiny part, it is your turn to step into the tale. Embark on a journey to unveil the mysteries of Blood Oak, and stand beside us as we forge a legion of 3D-printed warriors.
