Thanks a bunch!  Crafting info starts here:

That's my general crafting thread on dmscraft.proboards.com .  It talks about the huts at that link I gave above, then goes on to somethign else.. and then back to the huts again.  I go from unfinished project to unfinished project in that thread, ultimately finishing everything and sharing the finished product in random order.

Thx a lot, I'm gonna make a bunch of terrain with this methoid. I'll post my results when I have them :-)

I've been experimenting with papier mache to make a hard, mouldable surface over a softer structure but your method with the bricks is inspired. Will have to give it a go. Fascinating thread, please keep posting.

Awesome! I look forward to seeing your pieces, and getting ideas from you to further improve my toilet paper mache masonry

Thanks for the complements.  Can you please describe more about what you are talking about with mouldable surfaces over softer structure, etc.. -- interested.

I have been wanting to try to use this toilet paper mache inside a mould.   I'd like to try it and let it dry in a mold for a day then pop it out and see what happens.   I know it'd shrink a bit.  But I do know it would be rock hard after it dries a couple days.    (Well it takes up to 5 days to dry if pieces are thicker -- unless I use a heat lamp or fan or whatever).

Just keep in mind that it shrinks a bit after it dries so it will break apart in places and there will be gaps.  But this has not been an issue for me at all since I just break it apart in chunks and hot glue together where needed.  I also fill if needed with more TP mache, sand, modeling paste, and/or sand & white glue (etc.).

Finished the Dice Tower Yard.  Need to make a gate that open and closes and securely stays closed so when dice hit it, it doesn't pop open.  Any suggestions?

Portcullis or drawbridge. Either sliding in place on some U beams [-------------], or held in place with magnets perhaps?

Some great terrain, I love the statue!

Very inventive and original stuff I'm seeing in this thread !
The battlemat made from canvas is a great idea for a portable game area.

Got my $300 Monoprice 3D printer today.  This is the first miniature I've printed (from Thingiverse.com under "Garden Toad").  I scaled down to 40mm for use as an Ice Toad in Frostgrave.

Excuse my amateur paint job -- new to the hobby.

Printed and painted another ice toad (cost for each frog is just under 20 cents a piece in plastic filament)

Ooh I like those toads - they have a creepy 'oh good, here comes dinner' kind of smile.

Impressive and welcome to the club!!!!
