Archvillain Games - Sci Fi.
(note: most of my comments are the same as for their Fantasy range and copied here for easier access)
Archvillain Games has been around since 2019, and release high quality, supported models on a monthly basis. Each month includes around 20 sculpts around a particular theme, including player miniatures and monster and NPCs.
Andrew’s thoughts
Archvillain is easily one of my favorite creators. Each month is imaginative but the spectrum of miniatures provided all form a cohesive whole. The adventure then uses them all in a game setting so you can easily print, paint, and play with their month’s releases.
One thing of note: they often include multiple sculpts of the one “character”. I think this is a great resource as you can have variety in your monsters and NPCs easily, and often can even use them as the same character but in different modes (for example, a skeleton might be offered in four different sculpts, but have enough similarity across them that you can use one for your enemy while in guard mode, and a second sculpt for when it is attacking).
I mention this for the potential downside for some - while Archvillain is accurate when they say 20+ models, you may initially be surprised to only see half a dozen actual “creatures” listed. Here are four alternate sculpts for the same model - El’Tarak from the September 2023 release.
All models are provided in 32mm scale (which is my preferred size) and the release will come with a group shot so you can compare the size of each against the others.
There is rarely terrain or 75mm variants, but you might get away with scaling them up a fair bit since they have so much detail.
