Got the other backdrop piece based up.





They can join up either way around:




Or for the absolute win ... placed on either side of my dungeon board .... and you can play a game where you have to pass through the mountain and come out the other side. :D

Thanks. :D

As I am going to have to get some polyfilla and paint on this I have taken the opportunity to pimp up my Dwarf Mountain a bit ...

The design on the walls in the Dwarf mountain piece is done to match the Moria columns from GW .... they match in height to the point that I can drop the next floor on top as they move up and down floors. Yes I need to get out more.

Sorry my bad - its called "crocodile pit" and it is a tile by Ron Shirtz - obviously not a tile from the original set.  You can see it here: http://aginsinn.yeoldeinn.com/tilesdungeon.html

I'm loving the way your dungeon tiles project has expended to a build a mountain project that resembles the magnificence of the mines of Moria.  Fantastic!

Yes ... I know the one. Hase some crocs swimming around in the bottom and a sort of rope net over the surface. Might try and do a take on that.

So you might have seen these bumping around e-bay.



They are cheap, nasty plastic in completely the wrong scale and with way to much soft detail to go with the 28mm stuff (Although now I have them they will certainly see action in my bargain Tomb Kings army.)
Whilst I would not have bought them individually I saw a guy selling a whole bag of these cheap enough it made me think what I might do with them. Now if I had not beem in the middle of this project I would have drawn a blank but as it was .... I came up with this .....

I melted them into a wall. :D



So they can be the backdrop to a room. And yes I do have extras so that I can make based versions of these for when they 'come alive'. :twisted:





Or how about flanking a narrow corridor?
That should get the adventurers wishing they had brought a change of pants. :D

Thanks. :D

A couple more rooms ... one for the sphynx ... who knows what monstrosities will come appear in this room ... then my hall of warriors then the treasure room .... Tomb Kings section done! These could be stacked with doors in the ceilings for that real pyramid feel. You would have to climb the sphynx to get through the trapdoor ...etc...

This is how the pit room ... with a top on it ... can combine with the stairs to make a guard room at the top of the stairs before you desend into the dungeon.

I hate you. And I mean that in the nicest possible way. :)
The skeletons in the walls are amazing and once everything is painted that will look absolutely awesome. So jealous.

 :o This really is a great thread to oggle through.  :)

There's a word to discribe people with as much skill as you have at making terrain this good.

I don't remember it precisely but you are one. Definitely. A full on complete one of them.

 :D

Fantastic stuff, and really glad you are sharing it.

Love that you found a use for those e-bay "unit fillers" to....
