the Well of Lost Stars

-

 with my D&D group's campaign came to a conclusion last weekend,
i needed some thing to let the one group of characters to transfer from my campaign
to a fellow group member, Jon's campaign.

so i thought what i could do or even use for an easy transfer.
i thought i'll use a plot device to teleport the group of heroes to where the
next campaign will begin.

the Well of Lost Stars.


the main part of this terrain piece was part of a failed 3-d print of the Stargate,
from the movie of the same name.
i have another piece that was printed just not as thicker,
i might make it into another Well.


the band of heroes investigates the Well of Lost Stars.
"what could this be?" the tricky rogue, Usagi asked curiously.


to make the green substance is basically some amount of paint and Elmer's glue.
i took a light shade of green and mixed it in the glue,
then i filled the inside area with the mixed glue and finally added a
few dots of a darker green.
i ran a toothpick around, in a way to mix the two shades and sat it aside to dry.
it took roughly two-three days for the glue to completely dry.



death from behind, he will never see it coming...

    That looks awesome, and is a great use of a failed print. Love the vortex effect inside it too. Inspiring to see a failed 3D print put to such terrific use, especially as its helped become the focal point to an upcoming new D&D adventure. Good work all round.

    Great stuff. Transferring campaigns is sometimes tricky, but it looks as if you handled this very 'well'.

still plugging away at the mess of undead miniatures i still have. these skeletons are from the Undead Encounter pack from Mantic Games. i went with a simple color scheme, i didn't want to spend a lot of time on them. the so called leader of the group. with the simple color and shading these came out nicely. i might go back and retouch the eyes, maybe add a green glow or redness in the eye sockets. rest of the group. way these came out i might purchase another pack of these, add more to the more ranks. Beholder Zombie. this fellow was fun to paint. cannot wait to unleash this on my D&D group. (insert evil laugh here) Crawling Claws. wanted to make some low CR creatures for this weekend's game, and since the group is heading to a den of evil what better way than this. made from dismembered hands from an old GW zombie plastic set. last year i came across some board games called Dark World, and the miniatures were pretty cool to use elsewhere in my table top games. so i used t...

for the Lord of Wolf, for Russ!

ever since my last game of 40k Kill Team with my buddy Jayson, i've been thinking on a second team for the game. lots of ideas were swirling in my head. and i narrowed it down to the faction i always wanted ever since i first started playing 40k back in 2nd edition. the honorable and ferocious Space Wolves. with all the new material coming out for 9th edition and what has been out already i have to say i am disappointed on how much character the new Primaris space marines lack. i mean yeah there's the upgrade packs you could get but still there isn't much to separate one group of Primaris marines from another of a different chapter except shoulder pads. so deciding on this i went with the classic look of the Space Wolves. but with that also there is only a few units and not much i can use if i do a non-Primaris Kill Team. and with these marine i also tried the Citadel Colour Contrast paints. and i have to say i like them very much. very easy...
