Re: Castle Grayskull (MOTU) Custom
Looking good!

What insert do you use with the Dremel for the brickwork? I tried something similar with the end mill-like tool that came with my Dremel, but the tool diameter was too big and it didn't look right.

Awesome custom!
Heroscape, or as the Chinese say, 'Hero-Scape', sport of emperors and bandits alike.

Re: Castle Grayskull (MOTU) Custom
It looks amazing. I can't wait to see some figures fighting a castle battle on that.

Re: Castle Grayskull (MOTU) Custom
Hey guys,

Sorry for the sloooow progress. It's heading into winter here and I'm doing the seasonal adjustment thing of feeling too cold to be motivated to do anything (I'll get over it). I'll get back to work on the castle shortly...

In the meantime - Porkins, I'm not sure which particular Dremel bit I'm using. It's a mix of a few I have. I use a rounded burrowing type bit to make the initial lines/cuts on the MDF. I follow that with a pointed 'sanding' type bit to get that 'scuffed groove' effect of stonework. I then rub a sanding block briskly over the MDF to clean up the mess that the bits leave behind (the fine 'flashing' left behind after the rough Dremel cuts).

Working with PVC plumbing pipes is really messy Dremel work! The castle turrets were a nightmare to etch out as you couldn't rest your hand on the curved surface. The Dremel cuts needed to be worked on a low angle so that the Dremel was almost flat against the curve of the pipe to produce the same effect as on the MDF board itself.

SgtHulka - nice custom He-man card. I've just picked up an 'Avatars of War' generic barbarian figure that looks like it'll make a great 'wild' He-man figure reminiscent of the orginal mini-comics portrayal of He-man.

More pics soon...

I just realized that the He-Man card is the same as this one:

Re: Castle Grayskull (MOTU) Custom
Hi all,

Slowly getting there with Grayskull. Just finished work on the castle jawbridge. Still working on the idea of re-creating the original box artwork from the 80's of a looming, forboding fortress. Feedback would be appreciated re the 'bony fingers/crown/skull facade' that I'm going for. Remember it'll all be painted dull greens and black. I'm trying to achieve the idea of making the skull aspect of the castle fully playable from a miniatures point of view (hence the idea of the 'crown' extending from the brow of the skull face to allow for a wraparound walkway...

How is it looking?







Cheers,

G.

Re: Castle Grayskull (MOTU) Custom
Still looks just jaw droppingly gorgeous to me.
Before there was Batman for me, there was He-Man - so I'm just loving this project!
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
