Re: Looking for information about other molds

I'm thinking that these may be Linka molds (or moulds). You can see their web site at https://www.linkaonline.co.uk/linka-moulds.html.

Re: Solo play

That reminds me a lot of Dungeonquest. Unfortunately the game is out of print and very expensive on Ebay. Luckily I have a copy of the game and play it occasionally as it can take up to four players. The game is mostly luck and a lot of tension, hoping you don't stumble into something awful and die ...

Re: Castle project

Holy cow! I can't believe the amount of work that went into this project. The painting is wonderful!

My favorite tops have to be the conical roofs. It just makes a dazzling image the way they all lay out across the top.

The modular design is wonderful as well. There are lots of ways you could ...

Re: Something a bit different but related

Nice work! It looks like a fun project. At first I was confused about the large blue wall, but then I realized it was supposed to represent the mold.

Re: sealing a plaster original to make a silicon mold of it

You can paint the tile with any type of flat spray paint. Flat black is a good choice if you want to dry brush grays on top of it.

However, the whole purpose of making a mold is to use the mold and make castings from it - without harming the original. In most cases the original is never used in a ...

Re: Working on Cryptstone

I have a large project in the background of my mind which kind of fuels the projects and directions of this next series of molds. This project is to make a modular board ...

Re: I'm looking for ideas for Bolt Action European theater buildings

I'm thinking you meant to say Bolt Action. One project you might draw ideas from is the brick dice tower at https://hirstarts.com/haunt/haunt.html . The brick should be just about the right scale. The other brick mold is at https://hirstarts.com/brickdungeon/brickbasic.html .
