Izner's Custom Terrain (NEW: CLEAR SWAMP TILES!)

[Lamaclown]

The painted swamp water tiles are great! You are right, they do have an algae-feel to them.
Good work!

If you were to sell these, how much would it cost? Would it be cheaper just go buy some at the store? I am relly interested in these, they really caught my eye.

I won't sell these. I feel that the tile shape is the intellectual property of the makers of Heroscape, and it would be wrong to profit off their work. However, I would be willing to trade them.

I'd gladly make a batch of somewhere between 11 and 22 tiles for anyone willing to trade me an authentic GenCon exclusive figure... depends on which figure we're talking about. I'm open to other options as well, PM me with an offer if you're interested. One I make a few more of these, I'll probably make an official statement regarding this somewhere.

If you wanted to make them yourself tho?

It's a little expensive at first, but you gotta look at it like an investment. The mold will last you quite a long time if you treat it right, and these tiles use very little plastic. I bought one sample pack from the website I mentioned in my first post, and over 20 tiles and several mistakes later, I'm not even through a quarter of the chemicals.

The silicone and the resin are the expensive part. The paints and dyes are pretty cheap. And the process, although a little time consuming is pretty easy. I'd be happy to help you out with it, if you had any questions.

Really Izner, this is your best stuff yet...too bad I can't get a pun from this one.

The new swamp tiles look amazing! I definitely prefer them over the original.

Good stuff! Too bad I traded all my exclusives.

I actually like the unpaitned swamp tile better than the painted ones but cool any way.

I bet if you put enough thought into it you'd come up with a good one. I'd try, but right now I'm really swamped.

Those tiles look really good. I like the green wound markers too.

[Raudulfr Shieldcrusher]

You said 'swamped'!

GF9 makes something along the lines of what you're describing, but it's not as realistic as one might hope. I purchased a couple, and they look good with VW, but I'm willing to bet Izner could do better...

EDIT: This is the closest I could find to what I have. Looks like they no longer sell the fire markers.

These are only $3.99 at CoolStuffInc.com:



I bought a few to make fiery things for my lava. They are large enough that you might get two campfires out of each one.

EDIT: Apparently their system detected my attempts to send them more sales and made the large image unavailable. Here's the thumbnail instead.
