Meet the Animated Armor Knight (Advancing/Attacking Pose)
When the torches gutter and the dungeon air grows still, that’s when the metal begins to groan. Once dormant, the Animated Armor Knight lurches into motion—an empty shell fueled by arcane will alone. Each step echoes like a war drum, each movement unfolding with supernatural precision. In this advancing pose, sword lowered and body angled forward, the knight charges with lethal intent, embodying the terrifying moment a seemingly lifeless suit of armor springs to life.
More than a creature, this is a presence—an eerie sentinel of forgotten keeps, sorcerous laboratories, wizard towers, and cursed crypts throughout Dungeons & Dragons lore. Whether serving as guardian, warden, or relentless hunter, the Animated Armor Knight is a staple of fantasy encounters and a dramatic addition to any TTRPG session or display shelf.
Designed with Yasashii Kyojin Studio
This miniature is expertly sculpted in partnership with Yasashii Kyojin Studio, known for their bold silhouettes, crisp armor paneling, and dynamic action poses. Their signature style is unmistakable in every curve and plate of this knight: the reinforced pauldrons, the articulated gauntlets, the imposing helm crest, and the decisive forward lean that communicates pure animated momentum.
Every detail has been captured with printability and paintability in mind. Sharp lines, clean armor breaks, and expressive posture make this an exceptional resin print for hobbyists, painters, and collectors alike.

From the Crafty Llama Tables
Your party descends the spiral stairs into the abandoned fortress keep. Dust blankets the floor… but in a single sweeping arc, a track cuts through it, as though something heavy has recently moved. A glint of steel catches the torchlight—an armored figure stands at the center of the hall, unmoving, head bowed.
Your rogue inches closer, testing the silence.
With a thunderclap of metal striking stone, the knight erupts forward, blade sweeping low in a deadly arc. The hall fills with the screech of armor grinding as the empty suit hurls itself toward the party wizard. Initiative is rolled. The fate of the explorers? Unknown.
But one thing is certain: the Animated Armor Knight is awake—and it is not alone.
