Title: Illuminated Reaper Bones Large Fire Elemental
Post by: CPalmer on 23 December 2013, 03:26:44 PM

This week I wrapped up a project that I have been working on for a while now; the Large Fire Elemental from the first Reaper Bones Kickstarter's "Fire it Up" set.  Ever since I saw the illuminated samples Reaper had on display at their booth at Historicon, I have been thinking about how to do this myself, and this past month I fianlly set about constructing my own.

Excellent work I might say, a really cool gimmick :)
I hope it doesn't burn the whole countryside down the way it scorches everything in it's path, but then again maybe that's what it has been planning all along?   >:D

Great idea, especially when you see it in the video on your blog.  I may have to steal this idea for some 'on-fire' markers for my VSF games  :D

Really cool !

I've got 5 or 6 of these electronic candles, and I still didn't use them ! Inspiring !
