Treasure piles - an overlooked and simple accessory

[erho]

This is an item that most people have already but far too many do not, as did I.  I thought treasure is figurative at the table, never truly shown in all its grandeur amassed beneath some fearsome wyrm.

I decided to go with a few small token sized treasure piles, to be used as objectives or whatnot using up some clay copies I made from old Mordheim bitz, and...  GLITTER!!

An lo!  Behold Hafþórir Stafngrímrson and his hard-won hordes of gold and riches!


I found the small round glitter that has the shape and size of 28mm coins, or else you couldn't pull it off in my opinion.  I made an oven bake clay copy of the spell tome in the center, and sculpted the purse and shortsword.

The bloodied blade and spilled purse I intend to use(after gloss coat) the most as a point of interest on the map... a murder...  a clue?

Ive got some more drying with chests, weapons and armor among the gold Ill throw up later.

These are fun to make! I already know I'm going to make more than I ever need but thats just how I roll.

I would have added this to an existing thread, but its been over a year since the last post!

Thank you for your time!

Add your own!

They look great! I have started treasure piles in the past, but have never liked what I ended up with, so I usually scrap them. One of these days, when I can get back to crafting, I'll have to do some more with what I've learned from others on the forums, incorporating their ideas and will probably be satisfied with them then. Course, I won't be able to do more crafting for about another month, so...

You'll be gluing sand to foam in no time!

Heres to your quick return!

they look quite nice!
the one with the bloody sword liked so much!
i dont know if i told someone but i never played any game in my life ( just heroquest when i was...12 or something ) and now, with my daughters and my busy life i discovered them and feel a lot of curiosity!

one of the games that open my mind were "mordheim", i took a look of the manual and even it was on spannish i didnt understand anything hahaha to much info for me i think but i am trying!
I envy all of you, i really would like to play some day with someone...d&d looks fantastic, or warhammer ( kings of war¿?) ...
i need to study more i think!

regards erho, waiting for more pics of your work man!!

Ive had several dry spells where all I had was crafting!

That gives you time to create and paint entire armies!

I believe Wyloch plays mostly with his wife, which is most excellent!
