Any ideas as to where to get Dungeon tiles, doors, etc? Something fairly adaptable, cheap, easily changed around? How I wish LEGO would do the set I need!
Only 3d please, no paper or 2d.
Thanks for any ideas!

Cost-wise...the Dwarven Forge stuff is hard to beat.
-
If you have access to a 3d printer you can print your own stuff, or use openforge files from the thingiverse website. This is just one example (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:670747)
-
You could try these for floor tiles.

Chris, Game Decor have just bought the rights to the wonderful Itars Workshop range. Drop them a line for pricing/availability as it is not on the site yet.
Having owned both, l think the Itar range is far superior to DF......and a lot cheaper!
-
So many options. Ainsty/Armorcast (or whoever sells these now), Ral Partha Europe has Grendel stuff, there's Old Crow if you can get it, and much more. A good way to get an overview of what's available is to find the biggest online retailer for fantasy miniatures and check the catalogue.
-
There is Dungeon Stone as well. I've never bought from them, but their stuff looks great and is much cheaper than Dungeon Forge.

There's also Hirst Arts if you want to cast unlimited terrain.
-
I'd go for Hirst Arts. There's a Dutchman here on LAF that sells it. He uses dental grade gypsum and has very reasonable prices. I have bought of him in the past and will do so in the future. And with those casts the variations are endless. Cheers.

my .02 Lupins...
DF for tiles.
Twisted Catacombs for accessories.
-
I've been using these http://www.dxcontent.com/DT_FAQ.html
Not as pretty as dwarven forge but they are cheap and can just be thrown in a box for storage. I also like the way they can stack to create levels.

Tiles? Adaptable? Cheap? Quick to make?
Maybe this chap can help:

I'm planning on making my own - I've got some 2"x6" MDF bases for corridors, and a couple of 6"x6" MDF tiles for rooms. I'm going to make foam board bricks (generally 5mm x 10mm) for the walls. It's probably going to take me a while, but none of the materials are expensive in the slightest, and it's the kind of thing I can add to now and then. (Mind you, if I had the spare money I'd probably just buy a load of the Dwarven Forge stuff!)

4Ground had mentioned doing a laser cut dungeon at some point, but then it all disappeared. No idea if they're planning any more in the future.
With the excellent D&D card tiles...I'd even consider just piling on good terrain and using the cards. They're pretty nice, and very reasonably priced.
-
I think it may be Dungeon Stone for me. Great looking sets!
-
Can you tell us what you think of them once you get them? They are a company I'd never heard of before and I'd be really interested to hear what they are like in hand. I agree they look superb! So much cheaper than DF!

It's nice stuff, make sure you base the pieces with card or felt and be aware of the weight of a set of scenery, oh and don't get them wet!

Check this Kickstarter out: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1679800548/dragonlocktm-28mm-scale-dungeon-gaming-terrain (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1679800548/dragonlocktm-28mm-scale-dungeon-gaming-terrain)
You get 3D designs to build up a quite complete dungeon, but you need a 3D printer or a fairly-priced 3D printing service.
The bright side is that you can print as many as you want once you own the designs.
-
For cheap 3D printing check out any local libraries or colleges. My library has 5 printers and only charges .05 per gram for PLA plastic. It is pretty cool.

How about 2.5D?
Make your own for cheap and make what you want for where you want.
