Raudulfr's Custom Terrain (update 8-25-2012)

[Daddio]

Raudulfr, my friend, you are getting good at this stuff.

Darnit, now I gotta go take pictures and do...work.

[Raudulfr Shieldcrusher]

Thanks! I made a bunch more last night. The go surprisingly fast. Tonight I'll make the bases.

only 3 sentences must be said: #1 awesome, #2 on the orc archer tower you forgot how to put the dang spikes on, and #3 how in Sam hell do you make those awesome freakin rock outcroppings?

I like the rock LOS blockers. You made quite a few...

Why, thank you!

#2 on the orc archer tower you forgot how to put the dang spikes on,

I sanded one edge to the correct angle and then glued them on. Simple really. I'm all about the simple!

#3 how in Sam hell do you make those awesome freakin rock outcroppings?

I made a tutorial. I know I didn't photograph the exact process, but again, it is simple. I carved the shape with a blade and then detailed with a pencil.
When I carved them out I cut the basic shape first and then cut at a downward angle and tilted the blade until the foam broke off. This created the ridges. Then I used a pencil to carve the lines going down from each ridge.

With so many tutorials online, I didn't feel it necessary to detail every step.

Preparing for a trade with someone for a D&D master set. (hint hint)

Awesome stuff man! Wish something like that was included in the D&D set. Really gives a good under-dark feel.

Dude, your stuff is phenomenal. I know you said something about trading for your pieces, but would you be willing to possibly sell some as well?
"I'd buy that for a dollar!"

[Raudulfr Shieldcrusher]

I'll 'trade' for money. PM me.

Mushrooms

As you can see, I've made several different sizes. In the lower right you can see two caps that are in various stages of shaping. The furthest to the right is one I just started carving and the one to left of it is a little more finished. When I'm done shaping them with a blade, I sand them smooth.



Here you can see the lines on the bottom and that the stems and caps are two separate pieces glued together.



The whole crew.



And after the paint job.





I glued on some kitty to the bases before painting and then added some yellow and green moss. I still need to cover the blue sides of the water tiles with some green.

I'd like to trade some mushrooms and rock outcroppings for a D&D master set. Or just sell for cash. Make me an offer . . .
