About Toasty Workshop
Toasty Workshop is an independent creative studio based in Australia, specialising in high-quality resin miniatures and digital sculpts. Owned and operated by Chris Archer, the studio is built on a lifelong passion for fantasy worlds and art.
My love of fantasy worlds began early, sparked by the art and storytelling of Pick-a-Path books like Deathtrap Dungeon, Dungeons & Dragons, and classic board games such as HeroQuest and Warhammer. The work of legendary artists Larry Elmore and Keith Parkinson had a profound influence on how I envisioned these worlds. As a kid, I created my own board games and adventures for family and friends, complete with my own illustrations. That blend of art and imagination eventually led me to pursue a Bachelor of Animation at university.
Today, 25 years later, I design, digitally sculpt, and manufacture every model in the store myself, creating a growing range of original miniatures and artwork. Whether resin-printed or digital files for home 3D printing, each piece is crafted with the care, imagination, and passion that first sparked my journey into fantasy worlds.
