Cardboard Ruins
« on: 11 October 2015, 06:45:21 PM »
Some cheap and easy terrain for Frostgrave. Dave Graffam models.  I just wish they had a skin with ice/snow.

Yep, that's what I use. Fast to build, lightweight and easy to store. And if a building gets damage, easy to replace.

The pics look great on Drivethru.  Have any pics of your terrain? Too bad you can't "snow them up" somehow.  They still look good.

Sure. Here's some photos:




A skin with snow/ice would be great. There are a couple Dave Graffam models that are winterized.

Wow. Great stuff, thanks for the pics.

Do you know which sets are "winterized"?
Any ruins?

Thanks again.

You could always glue some snow flocking to the ruins and winterize them yourself  :)

No winterized ruins, sadly.

Mermaid Tavern and Frontier House have winter versions.

You could also do your own snowy version by copy & pasting the PDF pages into your preferred graphics editing suite and adding some white splotches :)

I've ordered most of them and find that they work well.

One thing you could probably do to add snow effects that should be rather cheap and allow for a more unique look is to find a bottle of white out...it ought to work rather well for snow effects
