So, I'm stuck at home for the weekend sharing strep throat with my youngest (I forgot how painful it is btw). I was forced to cancel all my classes for the weekend and should be able to do some quality crafting. I will throw some pics up as a go along. I was forced to cancel my Friday night game as well. Very sad. But I needed some time to catch up on crafting for both games anyway.

Thanks guys. As promised, the first pic. Combining the genius of Scotty and Bill(terrainaholic) I have... a tree. It is the entrance to a swampy cave system that my PCs will need to navigate in search of a black dragon.
Good times

Trying the tin foil covering for my cave system for the first time. Thanks for the idea DMG and wish me luck. My caves have, to this point, been a disappointment. Hope this helps.

Good times Norman Harmon at Troll and Flame has a cool scenario involving a black dragon. docs.google.com/document/d/17Pu-fbffyRYr2_7MCqbIf_hNgVOB8QGZE_ODoYYdGno/editFor inspiration! Get well soon!

Wow that's great stuff. I love the chest of sinking. I will definitely pick some ideas from that one. Thanks

Good luck, I find it difficult to craft if I'm not feeling well. I don't think I'd have the energy to craft if I had strep.

I hope you are feeling better soon! Crafting is a pretty good consolation if you have to be sick!

I've spent most of the time gluing a lot of tin foil to my cave pieces and taking lots of nap breaks. So, on balance, not a bad day really. Now if drinking coffee didn't hurt so damn much, I'd be all good.

Ice cream and milk shakes...

Ice cream and milk shakes... ...are a poor replacement for coffee. Contextually, even beer won't if the bill.

How well does the paint adhere to the tin foil? I have used tissue paper before but not foil.

How well does the paint adhere to the tin foil? I have used tissue paper before but not foil. I do a base of cheap black spray paint and the acrylic sticks just fine. No problems yet. I've done TP also, but its so much more work. Also, I use single-layer cardboard and it would definitely warp that.

The spray paint sticks fine, but make sure the dull side is up.
