Lol, glad you guys liked it . It was a fun little project and I had a great time doing it.

Indeed, but how about some thumbnails...

My poor old work computer is in overload. It ain't the beast I have at home.

 

[Arravis]

Sorry about that... it is partly due to a series of complications. Is there a way to get them as in-line with the text as thumbnails?

Wow.....just....wow.

There are a lot of great products out there for making your own gaming props. Fat Dragon Games, Skeletonkey Games, Arid Hills Productions, Microtactix, World Works, to name just a few.

One of the other things I've found useful is to take the images from the WotC miniatures on their website, scale them to size, print them out and then stick them onto mountboard. Works great for a counter. Of course, Fiery Dragon do some nifty counters as well.

Typically I will blow up my maps to miniatures scale (if available), then print and tape pages together to make a table sized battlemap.

Other things I use a lot of are pegboard that I cut and bolt together to make vertical terrain:

I hand out Paizo item cards for powerful items, index cards for mundane (such as Cure Light Wounds potions).

Beyond that, I have a few small walls I made with plaster, but that proved to be more trouble than it was worth, so I went back to my blow up maps. Someday I will build Pythoness House entirely out of plaster bricks (it's such a neat thing terrain wise in 3D)

Hey, all! Please use the sblock tags for photos, so the thread loads a bit quicker. Use {sblock} and {/sblock}, replacing the {} with [].

Thanks!

And Arravis? That's just astonishing work.
