About Rogue’s Den Hobbies
Rogue’s Den Hobbies is an independent hobby business based in York, UK, producing premium resin miniatures and handmade dice for painters, gamers and collectors looking for something beyond the obvious.
I’m Graham, the founder and person behind RDH. Since 2024, I’ve built the business around dependable quality, interesting designs and the belief that a hobby company should contribute something worthwhile to the community it depends upon.
What's 99 divided by 2? 92
One of my favourite RuneScape jokes; measured in experience points, level 92 is only halfway to level 99.
I’ve been playing RuneScape since its Miniclip days and remain an avid fan, proudly sporting my Old School max cape.
Like many perfectly sensible business decisions, the name Rogue’s Den Hobbies was conceived while I was playing Old School RuneScape.
One evening in 2022, while training Agility at the Rogues’ Den, I was chatting with a friend about what I could call the hobby business I was planning. That’s when Rogue’s Den Hobbies came to mind and refused to leave.
Beyond the personal reference, it happened to fit what I wanted to build rather well. A den isn’t only a rogue’s hiding place; it can be somewhere other rogues gather - a home for unusual characters, hidden gems and hobbyists willing to explore beyond the most obvious corners of the hobby.
Apparently, the Agility grind was useful after all.
Miniatures chosen with a hobbyist’s eye
I don’t choose ranges simply to fill space in a catalogue. I choose a model because it has character, because I want to paint it myself, and because I believe more people should see it.
RDH is home to the officially licensed Space Bears collection from It's Tabletop Time, licensed designs from Infernal Miniatures and models created through genuine collaborations with independent creators such as MS Paints, alongside other distinctive fantasy and science-fiction ranges.
Behind every model is somebody’s imagination and hard work. That deserves to be properly credited, carefully produced and presented in a way that does the original design justice.
Quality you can see
Every RDH miniature is produced by me here in York. Each print is cleaned, cured and individually inspected before it is packed. If I wouldn’t be happy opening the parcel myself, it doesn’t go into somebody else’s.
Wherever possible, I use photographs of physical RDH prints rather than relying solely on digital renders. I want customers to be able to judge the detail and finish they can genuinely expect before a miniature reaches their painting table. That is what I expect when I buy models, so why should I expect you to settle for anything less?
RDH’s resin dice are also cast, sanded and finished by hand in small batches. They take considerably longer to produce than mass-produced dice - which is rather the point. Everything produced by RDH deserves the same care and attention.
Making the hobby easier to enter
Miniature painting and tabletop gaming can be incredibly rewarding. They can also be expensive, technically confusing and strangely intimidating when you don’t know where to begin.
You shouldn’t need to own a resin printer, understand a slicer or arrive with years of painting experience before you can find a miniature you love and make something of it.
I want Rogue’s Den Hobbies to make that next step easier. That starts with dependable, ready to paint physical miniatures, clear painting guides, straightforward answers and encouragement to have a go. It means helping people build their skills and confidence rather than surrounding the hobby with more jargon and gatekeeping.
For me, accessibility doesn’t mean lowering standards. It means removing unnecessary barriers while keeping those standards high.
Physical products are only the beginning of that ambition. As RDH grows, I want it to create more ways for people to learn, make, share skills and access parts of the hobby that might otherwise feel out of reach.
The same principle applies to creators. Great work deserves proper credit, fair treatment and a genuine opportunity to find the people who will appreciate it. RDH should help good ideas reach hobbyists while respecting the people responsible for them.
Part of the community
I don’t see the hobby community simply as an audience to sell to. It is something Rogue’s Den belongs to.
RDH should be useful within that community; helping somebody discover a new creator, providing a painting guide that gets an unfinished model back onto the desk, answering a question honestly or giving someone the confidence to try something new.
Trust isn’t something RDH gets to claim merely because it is independent. It has to be earned, one order and one interaction at a time, through honest photographs, dependable quality, straightforward communication and putting things right when something goes wrong.
That trust has to work both ways. I try to deal openly and fairly with customers and creators, take people seriously and build lasting relationships rather than treating every interaction as nothing more than a transaction.
Every order, guide, collaboration and conversation should add something worthwhile back into the hobby that makes Rogue’s Den possible.
Welcome to the Den
I’m not building Rogue’s Den Hobbies to become the biggest miniature shop. I’m building it to become one of the most trusted; somewhere hobbyists feel at home, good creators get a fair shot and interesting miniatures receive the care they deserve.
If something earns a place in the Rogue’s Den, it is because I genuinely believe it deserves a place on somebody’s painting table.
Paint Like a Rogue,
Graham
