Hi Folks - I started off on my Frostgrave terrain build this weekend. We wont be playing til later in the year / early 2016, but it seemed like a good time to start.

You can follow progress on the blog but I'll keep adding here to keep folks aware of the updates

http://shedwars.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/frostgrave-terrain-part-1.html

Up first is my first trial piece



and a rather wonderful temple  ;) (many thanks to Harry for alerting me to the possibility of these - see Harry does Frostgrave thread)



cheers

I like that temple, it's got a bit of a  Conan vibe about it. Are you pleased with your Amera order?

Hi Steve

I ordered rather a lot from Amera and didn't quite realise how big some of the pieces were !

am I happy - yes buts its going to be a lot of work getting these into the final condition.

The temple does have a Conan Vibe/Dwarven Vibe - I have actually bought two more  :D - Both will be done up (one to sell)

I figured two side by side with a gate would look quite awesome

Wow, they are pretty big pieces, aren't they.

The idea of two of those towers side by side sounds good. I really like the look.

Thanks guys...

I have actually been scouring ebay for a few other plastic toys to populate my Frostgrave board.

I have managed to acquire the following to create Wizards Towers...

The Thundercats Tower of Omens Playset



Ben & Holly Magic Castle



When they arrive I'll be posting up pictures to share

cheers

I snagged the Tower of Omens at an indoor flea market a couple weeks ago. A really nice set with lots of possibilities, but massive in relation to 28mm scale on a 3' x 3' table.

Oh my, I REALLY love your elevated areas... I may shamelessly steal your ideas for my own inspiration someday. Can't wait to see progress!
