[QUOTE="naloomi, post: 5266235, member: 18255"] No, the Hydrostone is not something you can get from HA. There are many suppliers nationwide of Hydrostone. You can use US Gypsums website to find a local distributor. [url=http://www.gypsumsolutions.com/distributor/map.asp]Gypsumsolutions.com - Leading Manufacturer of gypsum based products used in Flooring, Food & Polymer Fillers, Cements, Casting, Tooling and ceramics[/url] While it is a fun hobby, casting itself is not really a team exercise. The building & painting can be, but not so much the casting. That is one of the things that appeal to people using it is the lightness of the end product. It allows extremely large builds without a large weight problem. Well, in this aspect you have many options. And this is a very popular discussion over on the HA boards. Some of the popular options are separate floor and wall sections. This allows you to make whatever rooms you need at any given time, and have limited sections that you have to store. One of the drawbacks of this design is you do not get many variations. Another primary option is actual dungeon tilesets, much like what Dwarven Forge utilizes. Here are some 3x3 & 4x4 tileset designs that a buddy of mine came up with that many of us use. [IMG]http://nalsworkshop.com/images/test/DungeonDesign/index.php?resize=1&image=DungeonDesign1.jpg&screenwidth=1366[/IMG] These tilesets use simple floor and walls and look much like: [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun024.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun027.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun031.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun032.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun038.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://hirstarts.com/dungeon/dun049.jpg[/IMG] Glue - Honestly, I find that Aileen's Tacky glue works best for my use.
