Dungeoneering!

Work continues on a bunch of Dwarven Forges' Dungeon Game Tiles. They've just started shipping their second Kickstarter for caverns, and recently they had a restock of several resin sets. I sprung for a bunch of Catacombs and some Medieval Building sets, and there's really no way to describe how cool they are.

Speaking of cool, there's a resin Kickstarter going right now from Zealot Miniatures I'm backing called Twisting Catacombs. They've got a ton of cool little accessories and scenery pieces, and so far the quality looks top notch.

Reaper is also expected to deliver on their second Kickstarter for Bones sometime hopefully before 2015 rolls in. So, it looks like I'll have my hands full with dungeon stuff or the next year.

I painted a female ranger mini from the Bones line recently to get back in the swing of 28mm.

Dwarven Forge Game Tiles - First Unboxing

My Dwarven Forge Kickstarter Game Tiles arrived early this morning, so I set about real quick before work unboxing a few things and snapping some quick pictures.

Here we go:

Real quick setup. I think this uses pieces from 1 Core set, 1 Kickstarter add-ons set, and the Grand Stairs Set. Measures 16" x 14"

Grand Stairs Pack

Dungeon Dressings Pack (I had to get 2!)

Everything has nice detail, and should be a treat to paint. Overall, my first impression is that these will be seeing a lot of use later on when I really get into some D&D adventures, and they'll be able to take it.

I need to find some craft paints that match up to the Dwarven Forge stock colors, and set about sorting and cleaning everything (there are some mold lines here and there, and the pieces still have some mold release on them).

Really satisfied with this Kickstarter.
