I'll tell you, it's a diabolical plot! No matter what I do my demons just do not turn out looking good. I am embarassed to tell you how much time I have in this Vrock, but blah. The pictures are not very good, but this fig does not deserve much more. A friend suggested posting it to show that I come up short sometimes. It's worthy of the gaming table and my players will be complimentary, but I won't be passing it around...
The pictures below are thumbnail links to a larger pics.
I think that vrock looks absolutely marvelous. Of course I do happen to be partial to vrocks with greatswords, and this one kind of reminds me of someone.

Ahh, he's no Pyrak! But thanks for the honor of stopping by - your story hour threads are truly the best!
In other news has anyone else taken advantage of this amazing sale on W&N #7s at ASWExpress ? That's the cheapest I have seen W&N Kolinsky Standard Brushes. If you don't own some - jump over there and grab a handful.

Thank you for posting that! I am just a couple short of having a complete working set.
Next month I am running Dungeon! the original 1975 release boardgame by TSR at the Winter War Gaming Convention on Saturday, February 5th.
Now you know I cannot just run a boardgame - so this entire game will be 3D! A massive dungeon with over 60 rooms. I'm working on many of the dungeon rooms and will post a few I have finished. They are all small, generally 20' x 20', but each is unique in some way.
If you are within decent driving distance of Champaign I encourage you to attend one of the best small cons around. Even if you do not play, come by and introduce yourself - I enjoy meeting other ENWorlders!
Nyrf, if for some reason you find yourself in the middle of God’s flatlands here in Illinois – you are always welcome at the pogre’s den. That is if you don’t mind a mess and three shorties running about
Here are some of the dungeon rooms I am making for my convention game. Each room is fairly small, but unique. I am painting them to match my master maze components.
I’m working on a couple of fancier rooms now. I will post them as I finish.
Hello Pogre!
I've got a question for you....
I'm interested in starting a mini thread of my own but I'm not familiar with how to link pics. Could you or Nyrf make a "How To" thread in this forum so other folks could give it a shot. We can petition a moderator to make it sticky so it's accessible to others. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants a little feed back from ENworld.
I have a few pics ready to go (courtesy of a buddy's Xmas digital camera) and I'll get more. I've been terribly ill since Thursday otherwise I would have a ton more. A pox on those typhoid Mary middle schoolers! If you guys don't have the time, I will experiment more when I'm functional.
P.S. I'll edit this post out later so it doesn't clutter your Louvre!

I loved that game! Your dungeon will be tons better than the dreaded white Sorry pawn! Are you going to use minis for the treasure i.e the magic sword?

The best way to see how we make thumbnails is to quote one of my posts with a thumbnail and then copy it to your word processor. It's tough to do a tutorial and post it without the code screwing up the post - if that makes sense.
The thumbnail method does require you to host your own photos, but it does cut down on the bandwidth ENWorld has to crank up - so it's ENWorld friendly in that regard. I look forward to seeing your work!

Right now I'm cranking on rooms. I have not given much thought to the rest, but I have lots of treasure so that's a real possibility.
edit: I just got a commission from a friend to paint some Iron Kingdoms stuff by Privateer. I'm all warjacked up!
Madhatter. If Pogre will help, we can create a thread on picture taking and posting.
I'm actually not that great at either, but I can certainly offer advice.

Are there alternate methods or could you do a quick rundown on thumbnails. Do you reccomend a certain webhosting? I'm not very familiar with creating web pages without a kit.
Here is another dungeon room called Shrine of the Warrior Princess. I tried to paint a freehand mural quickly and it turned out OK. I really have to keep cranking to make my goal.
More rooms to come and a couple of speed painted monsters.
How about a wee break from the dungeon rooms? Here is the old version of the Reaper Basilisk speed painted. I should say I like the new version quite a bit more, but have not got around to painting it yet.

Let me just say - I am considerably less jacked up about these miniatures after putting them together! Not a line for beginners - get out your kneadatite!

Very nicely done. I concur with you that the new sculpt for the basilisk is much better. I even bought a couple of the WOTC ones and plan to add some additional color to them. I happen to like that sculpt too.
