  • Today we are making some arcane circles that are modular! This D&D terrain tutorial is only on Dice Chatter!
    This Arcane Circle terrain build is perfect for tabletop games such as Frostgrave, Mordheim or even Dungeons & Dragons!
    This is a great way to get started in making some tabletop terrain for new folks and those that are experienced tabletop crafters as well.

    Unique style, tremendous modularity, and relatively easy to build.

    The tabletop's ambiance is coming together quite nicely. I also noticed your view count on your build videos is rising. I do not have proxon, my scroll saw would disturb the neighbors, an airbrush is a tool I admire; though quite fiddly, and 3-D printers though nice break often after a while. I do appreciate that these builds can be made without expensive gadgets with simple inexpensive tools. You put quite a bit of effort into editing these videos and they sparkle young man. Keep up the good work and remember it's all about getting the game up and running; never let yourself obsess over having the perfect models. Just have a good time, relax, and keep making memories.

    I like this process because instead of arcane circles, I can use these for something else. I play Alpha Strike, so for artillery barrages or any area of effect damage, I could just whip out a circle and put it next near my Mechs. Slap a Faction logo on it to show where and who the shot came from. Neat.

      @DiceChatter  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank Atlas! As long as you have a structure and an easy dimension to follow, like you said, you can make anything!

    One way to ensure the circular platform bricks remain, well, circular, is to put some kind of circular object inside as you're layering the bricks. Like a Pringles can or the like. If nothing is the right size, you could roll a sheet of cardstock and tape it into a tube, using the arcane circles as a size guide.

    What about pin washing the grooves between the stones with a thin white paint or ink, and then doing a tight spray along those lines of a colored ink.

    Just found your channel this morning! What a great idea! I love that these can be re-themed. With storage at a premium, I appreciate terrain that can be used over and over, especially if it can be easily adapted to new scenes or styles of game.

    Love it! These would be great as Objective Markers where you flip the disc depending on what faction controls it. I’ll have to build some of these! Thanks for the idea - I look forward to seeing your Frostgrave warbands fight over these!
