The Monster MANual calendar - a fireman-style calendar of D&D monsters reimagined as humanoid beefcakes.
Aboleth, Mind Flayer, Werewolf, Troll, Gelatinous Cube, Shadow Demon, Mimic, Vampire, Beholder, and Shambling Mound.
I have two more left to finish, which will be done in the next couple weeks. Pre-orders for the calendar open tomorrow, Tuesday, Oct 18th!

The Combat Shield and Mini-adventure for Basic and Expert D&D served the same role as AD&D's DM screen, with art by Jeff Easley facing the players along with the PC experience tables for level advancement, and important tables for the DM on the opposite side (TSR, 1984). This was for the 1983 3rd version of Basic D&D and 2nd version of Expert, to which TSR added Companion in 1984, followed by Master and Immortal Rules in the following 2 years to complete the "BECMI" D&D set.
The 8-page adventure "The Treasure of the Hideous One" by David Cook includes a full page scroll of backstory in tiny italic text, which seems an unnecessarily tedious way to begin a short adventure.
This is Shambly the shambling mound. I painted it with some Army Painter’s Speedpaints, then did highlights with some green Vallejo paints. I got it from the Blacklist Miniatures: Fantasy Series 1 kickstarter.
Monster Manual - Shambling Mound by Robson Michel
i made these for the players in the Curse Of Strahd campaign i’m running, because these are their three favorite things they’ve encountered in it so far
If my players have taught me anything while DMing its
-Evil-aligned humanoids (or even just any humanoid that's kinda rude) = Unforgivably Evil, Kill Them
-Evil creature from the firey pits of the nine hells, an amalgamation of corpses, anything unmistakably Evil but non-human = Pets, I Wanna Pet It
