Nice. I don't run dungeon crawls myself, but seeing dungeons like this almost makes me want to play in one. [)]

Very Excellent, gives very dungeonish feel! How many different molds do you have?

Turning Flash of was a good choise [:)] flash tends to lose details.

Are all your walls separate from floor or are some attached? That kind of things are always trouble for me - whether to do pieces that are more easily deployed or pieces that are more versatile.

Woow, awesome!

Pity my players are in a cave complex right now. Hirst arts doesn't have cave molds, does it? *drools*

Thats a great looking dungeon. Those HirstArts molds are great. I am working on a sci fi one for my SW games. Those projects are slow going but the results are something to be proud of.

Yeah I would be interested in how many $$ you have invested in molds to build something like your pics. I wish I just had a dedicated area to do something like this (darn apartments!)

I've been dreaming about Hirst Arts molds for quite some time and I really hope that I'll find the funds needed to order them soon. It is simply stunning. Great work, Wake.

I have to keep reminding myself that I don't have enough time for the stuff I want to do now, and I should not add building stuff with hirstarts to the list.

Amazing stuff Wake.

I love seeing what you guys do with the HA molds. If I'd found those 15 years ago I'd have been in a whole new world of trouble.

Thanks Sean!I used 3 different molds for the whole project,used the HA fieldstone ones(borrowed from Lotus_Eater,thanks Glenn!).I forgot I had the flash turned on,just got this camera![)]The walls are all seperate from the floor,I wanted it to be completely modular and customizable,except on the hall way sections...I forgot to post seperate pics of those,may do so when I have time,but they are basically like DF hallway sections,which I modeled mine after.

Bah,all my posts are filled with um...er...wisdom and knowledge![:p]Thanks for the compliments,I borrowed the molds,but they are about $29-$34 bucks each
http://www.hirstarts.com/molds/molds.html
I spent about $100 on dental plaster(merlin's magic dark grey)stuff is very difficult to break,but regular plaster of paris can be used(but it breaks easy)I spent $15 for a sheet of thin plywood for the base and probably about another $50-$85 for paint,felt,spray enamel,glue,etc,so not too much $ considering I got 100s of hrs of fun making it!

Indeed. Ever since I read the 'terrain' thread over in the roleplaying forum, I've been fighting the urge to build the chess set on the Hirst Arts site.

Good dungeon!

I made one of these a few years back, using the same molds but a different color scheme (dark black/grey with some green highlights to represent mold/slime).

Posting your dungeon may have inspired me to actually use my Egyptian molds! The question is, will it be a an Egyptian tomb, or a blasphemous temple to Cthulhu?

I have all of the fieldstone and half of the gothic molds. Best to order $400 at a time because you get the 15% discount and free shipping.

Or pick them up at gencon for 20% off on $400 or more.

So, $340 got me 13 molds. Not too bad. And i have used them a lot :)

great, at first I was thinking about it's openness but then again it would be good for gaming to see what's going to more and easy to imagine there are walls there. I have to try this kinda open set up with my DF stuff. Very tight painting. I don't know if you did the painting all at once or just have to technique down to a science.
