And thumbs up for the snow/icicle layers for Frostgrave!

Totally agree. I don't mind time-consuming if it's understandable. I'm struggling with a building from another publisher right now, and I've set it aside multiple times because it's so complicated to figure out.

Thanks, jeffgeorge! The Watchtower is somewhat time consuming to build, but not actually difficult, and it is really sturdy and stable once assembled--no hairpins needed! I added an extra layer to the regular tower to get a little more height. The other thing is I combined the regular Watchtower and the Orc Watchtower and played with the layers a lot to get the effect I was looking for. I wanted the ruins but not the orc stuff...there was something on the orc tower that I liked better than the regular tower for my purposes, but I don't remember exactly what it was. I'm not sure, but I think I used the orc tower for the base layers and just the ruined top from the main watchtower set.
The other building with the fire is, indeed, pieces from the Fat Dragon Winterhawk keep. I had to make a few adjustments to that one, too, in order to get what I wanted. I think mainly that involved being somewhat clever altering crenelations to make the corner pieces I needed.
In related news, even though we have already started this combat, I can't seem to stop building for this town. I think I'm obsessed. We can't play every weekend, so I think it will be up in my basement for awhile. We shall see how much the town grows before we are done!

The other kind of interesting thing I did was a kitbash of DG's Country House. I needed a large manor house, so I improvised.

Vermin King, here are the close ups! I didn't go with the single roof for the White Hart Inn because I wasn't totally sure how I was going to end up using the carriage house in the layout and wanted to keep them separated. I also skipped the dormers because I ran out of time. Kept meaning to get back to them. I still might!

Vermin King, your buildings are great! Thank you for making them. I wish I had uploaded the pics to be a little larger because you can't see enough detail at this size. I should take a closeup of your buildings and get that posted. Will try to do that later tonight.

Thanks, oldschooldm! You are my hero. 😀
Fire effects: flickering tealight, paint the base red and orange, cover the base with hot glue, attach poly-fil stuffing (carefully so as not to burn your fingers!), stretch it out to make it look smoky, spray with black spray paint. Done!

OK, now they have a "down for maintenance" page up--there wasn't one before. False alarm!

Is anyone else having trouble with the drivethrurpg/rpgnow website? It looks like it might be down for everyone. Anyone know what's going on?

That's great, so I just hit "add image to post" and that does the job?

Sorry, forgot the photo hosting question: what is everyone's preference now that Photobucket is out of reach?

Hi everyone,
I've been lurking for awhile, but thought it was time to say hello. I've been working all summer building enough to fill a town for a scenario my husband is DMing, and I've relied heavily on the advice from this board. So thank you!
