@mackyd955 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for the idea!! Making the pillar and I just ordered a dwarven texture roller from green stuff. Has some neat symbols and images. Going to use clear caulk, make symbols and dry brush leaving the inset parts clear letting out the light. Cut out parts of foam to let out light under the symbols. Then putting those pillars in an infinity mirror box for the Great Halls of Durin. Going to be so epic

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 5 месяцев назад

If you have a Harbor Freight local those flashlight are a typical freebie. They only cost about a dollar.

Awesome video as usual.... question: the large magnets are no longer available... any other size that can be recommended??? thanks....

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

Thanks. As for the magnets, they run out from time to time and have always got them back in stock. This size is decent for strength vs. size. If anything I might go the next size smaller that they sell, but it obviously won't hold together as well.

@WilSisney 4 года назад

Foam tip! Anytime you need to glue XPS foam and still want to get nice clean cuts, you can use 3M Super77 spray adhesive. It works so much better than hot glue and cuts like butter.

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

I will be looking into this! Thanks for the tip Wil.

I'm attempting to make a portal for the first time and I'm wondering whats best to use. Five minute epoxy mixed with paint or hot glue. Have you ever tried it before?

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

There really are a bunch of ways to achieve this effect. From virtual to paint and brush. I'll add this idea to my list. Your idea could work well. I'd recommend making a few frames and trying out a bunch of effects to see what you like best.

Regarding magnets: Why not use simple iron discs in place of magnets on one piece? This way polarity becomes irrelevant and you spare some precioussssss neodymium ;)

@chesterreeves9793 4 года назад

Outstanding!! Dwarven terrain pieces are always awesome....these pillars are sweet! Cannot wait for the next videos to see how it all comes together! By they way, if you can't find your pigments you can always pick up some pastel sticks from any art store or walmart and shave them with a hobby knife...works great. Loved the video and thanks for sharing!

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

Excellent tip Chester, thanks! And thanks for watching!

@andrewtate4897 4 года назад

instead of weathering paints which are expensive you can use pastel chalk it does the same job and yo get lots of colours to play with turquoise is particularly good on brass and copper colours, a bit of orange and brown for rust.

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

Excellent tips Andrew! Thanks for sharing.

@wolfgangxstudios8766 4 года назад

Those pillars look amazing. One quick tip about the pigments is that you can use pastel crayons as an alternative if they are out of stock, just make sure to not use the oil variety, I can tell you from experience that those don’t work as good while also being awful to work with on terrain as dust effects.

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

@Redgerman1 4 года назад

How do you think it would look using tea lights instead of the flashlight for some pulsing blue runes

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

So a tealight would be ok, but I see 2 issues. The first is that you would have to make the size of the pillar larger to fit around the tealight and the second is that I don't think the tealight would give off enough light to illuminate the runes properly.

@swashbuckle9856 4 года назад

have you been having any issue with krylon matte finish lately? It worked for me at first but I just got a new bottle and it melted my foam.

@TabletopWitchCRAFT 4 года назад

I use it on most of my crafts. You really need to do light bursts from at least a foot away. Once applied if you can see any sheen of spray on the craft you put too much. I have had my paint and foam bubble on me once with this and I applied it way too heavy. Better off doing multiple light coats (if needed but usually not) to be safe.

@swashbuckle9856 4 года назад

@@TabletopWitchCRAFT maybe i got a bad batch. I did it from roughly a foot, almost to the point where the viscosity of the mist dissipates completley. I did another test this morning on plain foam and modge podgeed foam. It melted both. I must have a bad batch, maybe with too much of whatever chemical causes the melting.
