      ...fuck you. Fuck you! I've already given money to Archvillain games! You mean I gotta give them MORE MONEY??? Those sculpts are so awesome! I don't even own a 3D printer yet!

    There must be a thing called "fancy crafter syndrome" where we get caught up in using specialized products and trying to make a new favorite material work, when really the old basics were what we needed right from the start. Great video man!

    I really do need to do more stuff with LEDs. Making glowing magic crystals was fun. That rune-tile really seems more like an altar or something that I'd put on TOP of a tile. But I spose it works either way!

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Why not both? :D And it also works upright as a portal or glowing run on a wall. The weight of the epoxy makes it pretty stable standing like that.

    This project, like nearly every other project, gives me so many tools and ideas for things I will do, even if they will not be exactly the project in the video.

    Those lights would be great, I think, to attack to a tree armature (I was given about a dozen with no foliage attached yet) under foliage to represent a faerie tree or maybe a swamp tree infested with will'o'wisps and draped with hanging strands of Spanish moss..

  • @forgotn42
    @forgotn42 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you wanted to make a removable top for it, it would likely be a good idea to attach the top and middle pieces together and then attach them to the base with magnets. You could add rigidity to the top piece by putting a thin piece of clear plastic under it, which could be scuffed with a red scotchbrite to help diffuse the light some.

    @jakewaitart9507 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This would be a great story feature if you could make one of these or something like it with remote toggleable leds. The party solves an important puzzle or the big bad guy starts some kind of summoning ritual and the runes start to glow without having to take the tile out and flip the switch, love how these kinds of things just inspire more and more ideas

    Another cool concept that is simple(-ish) in the execution, but looks great and is viable for all sorts of uses. After watching Real Terrain Hobbies vs. Jazza,, I totally want to see what you could accomplish in the same challenge conditions (trash, AP starter paint set, AP terrain basics kit, 1 12x12 sheet of dollar tree foam core, some cork sheet and miiliput).

    This entire build is cool, but one thing I am consistently impressed with is your ability to free hand rad designs. I always have to draft stuff like that beforehand to get something I really like before I commit to it. You just go right for it with the knife and it comes out dope as hell.

    Cool, you briefly thought about making a whole set of these with different arcane emblems, Spell traps like Symbol of Death, Weakness, Fear, Persuasion, Pain, and Flame. The symbols seem to be open for interpretation, but the research might be fun. Imagine your gamers stepping onto a tile, you immediately inform them that a saving throw must be made, while they are rolling you replace the tiles with your 3X3 symbol, the players hold breath waiting to see what the emblem might reveal. *phew* a Slowing spell trap, it could have been worse. Damn it Rouge why didn't you search this room. I'm new to your page and am trying to catch up on everything you do. Very enjoyable channel.

    • @BlackMagicCraftOfficial
      @BlackMagicCraftOfficial  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea, if you don't have the thickness limitation of trying to match existing tile thickness you can do all sorts of things. As is though one nice thing about this tile is that it CAN stand up and be used as a freestanding upright portal or something. All that epoxy fill gives it a nice weight so it's pretty stable.

The tile turned out really well! The sponsor minis look great, on point for all those BG3 players out there. the nautiloid ship looks b-b-bonkers! Thats right, so bonkers it just made me stutter! its that cool! Have you messed around with colored resin for your 3D printer? I've seen some really great glow effects done by using the translucent green resin and clever painting. Great work sir!
