In this wargaming tutorial I'll go through how I created some miniature doors and even miniature giant doors as a scatter terrain for wargaming or Dungeons & Dragons! This was a tasks my friend gave me to help him run his Dungeons & Dragons campaigns in "The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan", "Storm King's Thunder" and "Against the Giants".

I hope that you like this weeks episode where I in the name of friendship craft something I have never crafted before - miniature giant doors!? It was a challenge but with the support from you lovely people I knew I would get through this! Stay safe good folks! Lots of love! 🤘💙💛💙🤘

Leif labeled the title incorrectly. Shouldve been "Skilled artisan creates masterwork metal reinforced door complete with realistic forge marks from clay". Well done.

Haha! Wow! Thank you so much for that! I feel touched and humbled! Thank you! 💙💛💙

In the world of digital printers it's fun to still see hand sculpting terrain.

@DevsDice 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Dave! Well I don't have a 3d printer so I have no choice but I think regardless...I like to create so 3d printing would either mean that I went back into 3d modelling or I would just use it for minis and embellishments, I think...:)

When I saw the video title about doors, I instantly regretted not buying the package of coffee stir sticks from the dollar store yesterday. But, when you broke out the clay, I was surprised. I have seen those rollers, but not in action. They work really well, and I’m SO GLAD that the company didn’t mistakingly label them “Mayan Doors” since far too many people mix up the Aztec Sun Stone with the Mayan Calendar. Far too many... Awesome job on the doors. The many details you carved into each piece of clay, from the knots to the hammered metal hinges, really made them pop. And as always, the paint job was excellent. I will definitely get into moulding clay for my shelf diorama, whenever I get to that. Be safe and well, Leif.

Thank you kindly Ronald! Regarding coffee stir sticks, it really is a good thing to have lying around. I bought one pack of 1000 about 2 1/2 years ago and still using it here and there! I do really recommend super sculpey much more than the original sculpey I used for the scatter terrain! :) Thanks again for the comment and stay safe you hear?

Hey Leif, nice video! To prevent the different level of indent from those rollers, I use stir sticks that I stack at the appropriate height to have the thickness needed on both sides of my clay. The roller then rests on the stir sticks so I can use as much pressure as I want
