I write and run one shots for a business in Milwaukee. Creating my own terrain on the cheap to impress new their new clients.

Thank you to all who gave suggestions which have fueled these experiments (I'll call them out in the final post)

These test pieces are going to be used as various water features in dungeons / mountainous cities and are made from a DIY Sculptamold-like material recipe (a fraction of the cost of real Sculptamold).

Experiments with Resin / painting over black Modge Podge base.

White paint + turquoise ink-ed UV resin

White paint + sulfuric pattern + blue ink-ed UV resin

White paint + sulfuric pattern + white frosted + turquoise ink-ed UV resin

White paint + Blue inkwash + sulfuric pattern + white frosted + turquoise ink-ed UV resin

I think the last one is the winner for the whole thing. Next is this beast...

I was doomscrollling on FB, and came across an ad that was advertising either sheets or a book for ttrpg; can't remember which. What caught my attention was that they were being showcased on what looked like a deluxe GM station on a gaming table: it was a cavity in-set maybe a good foot into the table, and maybe another foot down? It was low enough that it even had drawers only the GM had access to. The wood looked grayish, I think?

Problem is, I got sidetracked and closed the app. So, I didn't get to send myself a link, and the FB viewing history was NO help, since it doesn't track ads.

I'm just wondering if this design sounds familiar to anyone? Or if you know of a similar design? Thinking of building my own table at some point, and I want to see what designs there are!

Or, if you have experience playing with these sorts of stations, what the pros and cons ballance out to?

I got new chairs all around. Spent a total of $330 for 8 dining room chairs and 1 DM reading chair.

I'm making a screen with two dice towers as important elements. Looking for ideas on what to add to it that can be of use for a DM. (So far I've thought of some sort of initiative tracker, room for a tablet and the usual tables in print on the back)

Still need to paint the numbers. What colour should I do ?

I've spent the past couple days making paper dice for my campaign. I originally just wanted to make a cool looking set for my players who are always forgetting their dice and stealing mine! But I really got into the design aspect of it and had a lot of fun making more. There were a ton of fun to make and if you're an artist I highly recommend making some fun digital dice so you can print out a ton of them too! Just pay special attention to the sizing of everything, I struggled the most with making everything line up.

So now I have a ton of dice sheets and figured I might as well add them to my etsy shop, if you want to buy my prints and print them out yourself you can find them here.

But you can also find free prints online if you look up 'dice nets' under images.
