That's very cool!
Where did you get the models and how did you make them?
I found "similar enough" looking models from Nolzur's Marvelous Miniature Line and the Vulkyn Flameseekers from Warhammer's Warcry.
Considering one was a bearded human bard and the other was a half-elf with a pony tail, I was lucky to find a bard with a beard and pony tail combo blister that could work for both (converting one with the signature crossbows), then I just picked a random sorceress from the line and replaced a Dwarf's axe with the everburn blade. With a similar enough paintjob people dismiss all the indiscrepencies like one would a cold reading.
Very impressive! The paint job goes a long way, along with the small alterations you've made.
I was expecting you to say you'd somehow exported the BG3 models and 3D printed them, that's how close they looked to the original characters.
