Crafting Modular Fountain for Tabletop RPG (tutorial) 

nah it's merely a technic. But thanks for your appreciation!

Thanks!

Hi Kat ! Yeah the flat is super bright, its exremely pleasant to live there, it's sometimes even too bright for recording crafting ;) ! Glad to hear the fountains inspired you!

@@LandvaettrsLair There is a fabric called 'blackout'. It is white or offwhite but has a rubber backing. It is 54" wide (think that is roughly 1 1/2 meters). You turn the top edge and can staple it if you don't sew. Hang the dowel or rod on cup hooks and it is very easy to put up and take down. Caution - make the covering a good inch bigger than the window so you don't have a tiny sliver of light peek through. In the states it is available in any fabric shop, but you can find it online and it is fairly cheap.

Welcome to the Channel! Glad you appreciate the content.

Thank you!

Thanks, but I really recommend using resin or other water effect instead of clear caulc for such a piece. At least I you wanna keep the nice light pattern of the bottom of the fountain.

Fishing line and clear epoxy is defenetly a good option, might try this on a forseable project. Thanks for the feedback and advices! Cheers!

Thanks!

Thanks Jason! Glad to be back! ;)

Then it's fullfilling it's purpose ;) ! Thanks!

Thanks i'd be interested to see your fountain once you've done it.

I know right ! I actually wanted to be able to change the bottom as well, and i'm still pretty sure it can be done, though maybe not out of foam... Cutting out the bottom won't work because once poured the resin will adhere to the surface. Since it's made out of very thin and fragile foam it required a solid base, however if you use tougher materials you could build it without a base, then set it on a parchment baking paper and pour the resin. Should be able to detatch it afterwards and be able to change bottoms! Concerning stopmotion i need to get back at it, complète an armature and do a new one since i got better wires than last time. Hopefully you'll see that in a couple of weeks !

@@LandvaettrsLair Was thinking of you cut clear flat plastic to fit in the bottom of the fountain you could make ripples on the bottom side child it whatever you wanted white blue red green ect might be interesting.

@@LandvaettrsLair Hey Landva check out Wyloch's Armory episode 087 Planar Map Room around minute 5:30 I'd the part I mean. If you did the fountain like this you could add ripples on the top part of the clear plastic. The slide in pieces could be any color you wanted kind of a cool way for different looks eh?

@@AlexBabcock-hw9iz Yeah that's more or less what I meant, but using resin instead of the plastic sheet, you know, for the depth of the fountain! Wyloch is such a great crafter, he's always been so creative!! I remeber the first modular system I used was his dungeon tiles and addons!

It'll come as soon as possible :)

Probably, though i'd have less dexterity with these sort of files on a long & flat surface. I'm sure it's super faster with wood to do it beforehand but with foam & such a small piece the filing part at the end was actually pretty fast !

The trick is to use a rolled up sheet of sanding paper instead of files to sculpt the profile of the bar. For really fine details, you can even sculpt plastic guides that can be glued to each end and will prevent you from sanding too far into the foam.

Thanks Thunder! :)

Thanks ! I'll do my best 😉

Thanks !

Thanks, doing my best to share back to the crafting community 😉

Thanks max, also not too difficult to do.

And this aspect does nothing but increase its value! Bravo!

Thanks for you support! I understand and i know tutorials are obviously way more interesting than lives &such, that's why i do them when i have the time ;)

Thx i'll do my best 😉

Thanks

C'est normal les lives c'est super long, c'est sympa par contre quand on crafte chacun de son côté là c'est cool le live. J'aimerais organiser des Hangouts, ça se serait cool.

Thanks !

Thanks. Yeah i also think the end result turned a bit opaque and lighter than expected because of the mix of caulc and resin, it dimmed the contrasts. In any case this was my first attempt at reflextions, i'm sure we can improve the result☺️ if you ever post the result on tabletop crafters guild please tag me i'd like to sée the result!! Cheers!

Seattle and surroundings. Mt Reinier & st helens mainly. Yeah i've already made some simple stopmotion but this time i want to create a good puppet. Hope my vid will come on handy!

Thanks. They Come from a russian group called tiny furnitures tiny-furniture.com/ they also have an Etsy. I did an unboxing a while back you can find it in the playlist if you want.

Hi and thanks. No the inside is made out of several layers of corrugated cardboard, only the exterior is made of 5mm thickness foam that I engraved manually with an X-acto knife and textured with a ball of aluminium foil. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aHL7ncloRdk.html
