Semi-Modular Crypt (img heavy)

[Draklith]

Ok so here it is, sry haven't posted much lately, been kinda busy with everyone else but me lol

Made out of styroboard, Styrofoam, wood bits, bamboo skewers, tooth picks, costume jewelry nick nacks, and styroblocks

As always, very interested in: suggestions, comments, concerns, or complaints   thx for looking

Oh yeah...she's gotta have secret doors right?

So that was just to show the different configurations that are possible...

Ok so 1 million pictures later...lol 

Hope it's not to big of a DL for anyone

Really great!

[Jason]

That is a really terrific build. Very nice!

[curufin]

Great job! I love what you did with the windows.

[Draklith]

Thank you everyone, I really appreciate the kind words.

This build has taken me almost 3 weeks to complete.

It has gone through 3 major design changes, that required disassembly, then re-engineered to suit my new vision.

The choice I made on the windows with the toothpicks took me forever to derive, I wanted a iron bar look without the jail house look, seems cheesy I know. lol

Then the stairs design...WHOA !  Rebuilt the stairs twice, then added structural support for longevity, and heavy minis. 

Then getting all the alignments the best I could, wow, glad I'm done with this one, weeeeeeeee     Ok now what's next ?

I think this would have been a kick ass craftwar entry this month! As always, love your work Draklith, its a good, play friendly structure, with some really eye catching elements. The layout of the tombs and the floor features are nice, as is the mixture of stone textures.

Excellent.

Wow... Beautiful! I too like the windows with the diamond shapes in them - great touch.

And no, you can never have too many photos

Str8 Bitchin!

[skunkape]

Wow! Great looking terrain!

[Draklith]

Once again thx everyone for the motivation to continue this lunacy   Probably wouldn't be building if not for the great peeps on this forum

Thought I would go ahead and share some piccies of my build process, and I forgot to shoot the setup with my floor extension so I'll show those also

the process

Here's the floor extension

Howdy,

I propose...EXALT BUTTON!

Who's with me?

Karma for you,
Kev!

[Draklith]

Thx Kev!

Love me some good Karma

[tiamat]

Wow this is really cool , and really well thought out ...well done

[adamantinedragon]

Very nice. I particularly like the vertical elements and the long arches. If I made something like this out of my Hirst Arts Hydrostone blocks, it would probably weigh 15 pounds.

[sgtslag]

How did I miss this?... Holy craftastic, Craftman! Wow... Just, "Wow!"  Absolutely amazing piece of work.  I hope you get a great deal of gaming out of it.  It is just too phenominal for a one-shot game.  Cheers!  And, thanks for the 1 million photo's -- it deserved every one of them...

[Draklith]

Thank-u sgtslag, and thank u adamantinedragon, and thank u tiamat...I really appreciate the time you guys take to throw up some comments, u guys ROCK

Fantastic work. That second set of pictures that showed some of the steps you went through answered a question that I had. I wasn't sure if you used individual blocks to make up the walls and columns but I could see them in the in progress pictures. Of all the things that I liked, I think that I liked the modularity the best. I've had a hard time reusing some of my bigger terrain pieces. The ability to add and subtract features to change the layout allows much more versitility. I'll be borrowing that concept for my future projects.

Totally awesome piece. Do you cut the blocks yourself, or do you have a source? I use similar blocks, but I cut them myself and it is tedious. Those look very porous. Do they take paint well?
