i can attest as a patron of loot studios its worth it if you can print your own models or if you know someone who can print them for you (check me and my wife out on instagram #orbitaldice )

[@viper-den]

Where's the link for that sweet shirt?

[@vladislawr1594]

You could also make a circular floor tile the same size of the tower with both sides having a different finish. So you just lay down a tile with a custom finish *pentagram - circle of protection ect* if you made 4 of those you could add an additiona 8 floors styles

[@recoveringsoul755]

@@vladislawr1594 The wooden support would be obvious when you turn the piece upside down. But I'm sure something could be worked out. Edit: Oh, you mean just a circle with two sides to go on top of these towers for more floor styles, I get it now.

[@lepettit_bricoleur3212]

I really like your "old style" video, with just some craft paints, a brush, and a knife to do some tiles!

[@whyisthereaholeinmybutt4274]

I’m just gonna come right out and say this... I’m so happy with how much your channel has grown, keep crushing it!

Your painting skills on miniatures has significantly improved since the zombie diorama. That wizard is probably worth a video all on his lonesome. One of the nice things about having a KZbin channel is that you can see your progress over time.

[@ja34namsf09]

This is what I love so much about Jeremy. Rewind back to the beginning and watch him sell us on how terrible he is at painting and that we should consider making paper minis. Then fast forward to the Ship Golem video, he's grown so much and it's fantastic to watch!

[@birkvanrillaer4787]

Funnily enough I got Loot because of your zombie video. And now I’m seeing the mad mage stuff. It’s nice to see they support you again!

[@StudsonStudio]

Very smart making a template for this one. I can remotely coerce friends to build a bunch and play a tower climb one-shot in the Y dimension only.

[@jonathonsmith8299]

What a great idea, I can get my whole gaming group to make one or two levels each. That'll save a bunch of work. Thanks for the idea

[@thomasaldous9733]

I’ve been watching your channel since before I even started tabletop gaming. Your channel is by far my favorite on KZbin, and your video quality is amazing, and the projects keep getting better. Your tutorials are so easy to follow, and you tell us every single step and material. You have given me something to look forward to every week during quarantine. Your game group is very lucky, with all your amazing terrain, not to mention, your just a really kind person. Keep up the amazing work

[@FlawSmith]

Cheap and easy build just like the description says, and a great addition to your modular tiles.

[@HouseDM]

Jeremy you're getting really good at painting miniatures. Cheers!

[@charlesbell2598]

I had been trying to get my son into helping me building items for our games. Showed him this video and he liked it. He enjoyed helping me build a few. Which was awesome because he's been down since his surgery. Thanks for the awesome videos.

[@cmyhalsky]

Love the simpler build videos. I don't get to play much between work and being a dad, but I like crafting for the games my brothers run. Will definitely be making this one!

[@clickivids6556]

Hey Black Magic Craft! Just a quick message but I just wanted to thank you for making these videos. I'm someone who hasn't ever built anything tabletop related but I love and respect people who do. Perhaps one day I'll give it a go, but for now I'm happy just to watch. All the best and keep up the great work. Love your videos, cheers!

[@VirtuosityB]

Modular is the best way to build buildings. Nothing like mix and match different elements from a few buildings to create something that suits the scenario and table. I'm releasing my own modular building video on next weeks sunday. It's more like a showcase video of my builds than a tutorial.

[@michalnoga8460]

One of the best videos from last months for RPG modular fans.

[@ja34namsf09]

This is a winner brother. Extremely applicable with a great eye for playability. You keep coming at us with winners!

[@BillAllanWorld]

This is the essence of the craft. Well done.

[@consgn2oblivion]

I love this so much! I've been building the entire tower with removable roof sections, but this is 100% better. It's more playable and easier to build. So excited to get crafting!

[@MonkeyJedi99]

When I make buildings, the walls attach to the floor or roof above, so that I can pick up that floor-n-walls and have an unobstructed level below that. And if I build things in the same footprint, I can have one rather tall building instead of several shorter ones.

[@consgn2oblivion]

@@MonkeyJedi99 that's what I do too. But this way we don't have to build walls!

[@uatu3021]

These kinds of videos are great because it allows easy access to great projects for newcomers and people (like kids for example) with fewer resources on hand to jump in to crafting.

[@TheMainCore]

Dang, that design is genius! I really like it.

[@DavidFrost9992]

I was inspired immediately upon seeing this video. As I type this, I am taking a break from drawing a floor and lamenting my lack of glue sticks. My idea is making two pieces, like you did, but one floor is large round stones on one side and wood planks on the other, and the other will probably have a broken stone floor and maybe an engraved magic circle or somesuch. Making them able to flip means forgoing the dowel reinforcement, but I am going to use Titebond 2 instead of Mod Podge, so I might get a tougher product. Thank you for the idea!

[@MurderHoboRPG]

Super dope Love the lighting in your videos Dope how you make the frame pop! Cheers!

[@aqualust5016]

I've always looked at modular dungeon tiles and scene pieces as part of the "uber dedicated" side of D&D, where one is willing to fork out $500 or more just for one scene at the end of a campaign. This realizes the vision that one could truly make their important campaign scenes stand out on a very fair budget and learn a skill or two in crafting. If you are dedicated enough to hunt down the right minis online, buy up some cheap paint supplies, then research the correct ways to paint minis for your party to interact with, then surely you could stick a couple of foam plates together, texture them with some household items, and use similar paints in your arsenal to make a one of a kind scene piece that your other DM friends wish they had. Thank you BMC for teaching us noobs how to have more fun doing what we love.

[@morganw.4711]

This is such an elegant, simple solution to the question of how to change between scenes quickly for a tower crawl. It would also work for a winding stair in a dungeon. Love it!

[@mikeelarsen1964]

Possibly my favorite project you've put out recently! Such a great idea!

[@HN-qc8io]

You always make amazing stuff, but this may be the coolest thing that I have seen. I can't wait to build it and force my players into close combat.

[@jackhelm9852]

Sweet build. And those figs are AWESOME. I have not bought my printer yet but these REALLY make me ready to pull the trigger! Great job, once again.

[@mtmroc]

I’ve watched a lot of your videos over the years, and this may be my favorite. I like it due to openness and generally playability. I don’t like pieces that are too fiddly with walls and stuff that get in the way.

[@jacob6071]

I keep telling myself that I don't need terrain for my games, then I watch your videos >

[@Scarabswarm]

I am loving the reusability of this build. As the players advance up (or down) the tower, you can just keep playing jenga with the layers for floor after floor of challenges.

[@scrambledcitycustomz8134]

For the ready board that is hard to peel, i use a mix of alcohol and water in a spray bottle, comes right off

[@DarkMatterWorkshop]

ScrambledCityCustomz xVLx Vinegar works too, then again i just buy foamboard without the card attached.

[@scrambledcitycustomz8134]

@@DarkMatterWorkshop nice tip! My dollar store only carry readyboard , but ive only encounter hard to peel board maybe 3 times, they usually have the ez peel😎👍

[@broadcastbard]

I quite like the "inspired by" projects. They are a nice way to tie in the craft and store-bought aspects of mini gaming.

[@patrickkirchner1562]

Absolutely in love with the simplicity and practicality of this build.

[@addamwright1733]

This is awesome!! I am so glad you teamed up with Loot Studios. I signed up for them when you did the zombie scene, even before I had a printer! Bought the Elegoo Mars and have printed soooo many of the characters an still have more to go. Their pre-supported files make it so simple to get going and the characters and designs are top notch. I love the additional things you are doing and this inspires me to take mine to the next level!!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

That’s what I like to hear from viewers about my sponsors!

[@Gladedancer]

I had just finished mod podging and crawled into bed after midnight, then realized I forgot to carved my support dowel into a more realistic timber beam! So up and back in there before the glue set. Hope to have this painted in the morning before our DnD session. Thanks for the great build :)

[@johnwhite2412]

The wood grain is genius work. Beautiful.

[@teagan_p_999]

Perfect, this is it. This will be my first project. I have an adventure in mind to go with it, too, once I can play in person again. Purpose-built, and reusable. I think at least 3 layers would make a lot of sense, so that there can be a level of stairs above and below the players, and I can shift them as they advance up the tower.

[@andrewjohnbeymer6020]

I'm totally going to have to build this on a Lazy Susan so that my players can always see the whole thing! this is such a cool project idea- thanks, Jeremy!

[@cctill88]

Built this today. Kids love it. Thank you!

[@brokenterrain]

I love the modularity of this project. Very simple, but super effective. Great video!

[@ZBTFilms]

So I’m moving back home to my parents (certain life things didn’t work out and they offered to let me stay in their main home since they live in another part of the house). I’m gearing up to start getting back into crafting and making stuff. I stopped for a bit when I first moved and have been really really missing it. I have a whole backlog of videos from you of things I’m gonna try to do once I get settled! So excited to get back into crafting

[@mikefranco5627]

That's freaking cool man! That fits the mad mage bundle perfectly.

[@Dracule0117]

This is an amazing project. Just flew to the top of my crafting to-do list.

[@jaredtalksdungeons1402]

Reminds me of Professor Dungeon Master’s UDT, I’ll definitely be making one (or more) of these!

[@claire.o.dactyl]

This is such a great idea!!! It's so simple but has such an amazing result. Will definitely be building a few new towers for my game table!

[@anthonyhargis6855]

I've already decided to make each layer the necessary height for the minis and add doors and windows at the appropriate levels to indicate the entrance to each floor. Another awesome build, Jeremy. Fantastic stuff!

[@jacobhope6164]

Simple. Elegant. Brilliant.

[@phantomaquarist3417]

I also downloaded the The Mad Mage this month. They are absolutely the coolest figures I've downloaded in a while. I may be in love with the terrain pieces even more.

[@Dave-ct1jk]

Love it. This is fantastic. Back to terrain again, love it

[@jacobbalensiefer3846]

Almost got a since of nostalgia watching this really feels like a video from 2 years ago (in a good way). I built some UDT from Prof. Dungeon master and this would look really cool sitting in the middle.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

I'd say the "project" feels like something from two years ago, I'd like to think the VIDEO is a lot better ;)

[@christophermurray9777]

These simple builds are the best. Well done.

[@hermimonk2748]

These are really cool and I appreciate the approachability of this project!

[@echodelta2426]

Awesome tutorial Jeremy. Those pieces look really great. Love the idea of using two different types of floors. Every time you mention LOOT STUDIOS brings me closer to breaking down and getting a 3d printer. Their figures and furniture are excellent. Thanks for sharing.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

JUST DO IT! Resin printers are so affordable and cost effective now!

[@dukeironfist01]

this is a really cool idea. I love the versatility of the modular system. The stairs alone, conjure so many encounter ideas for me. Thanks

Love love love this build !! I’ve been wanting to experiment with a round tower setting for a while now ...Really seems like you’ve Nailed it ! Thanks for the inspiration

[@thewhitefelldm2664]

Very impressive piece quick and easy, straight to the point. I recently finished a similar tower out of xps foam took 5hrs start to finish. Would have liked to have made mine wider like yours but achieves the same feel. My D&D group enjoyed climbing the steps. Might i suggest an improvement on your design? I included a ladder inbeded in the side were the cobble stone would normaly be. Its leading up from one floor to the next starting on the lowest stair. This provided our session with unique paths to the lich that lied waiting for my eager adventures atop the tower! May all your rolls be 20! Sincerly, The Whitefell DM

[@ShupperDupper]

This is also a perfect place to put a throne on top! Ooo, I think I might make one that has a pool of water, maybe a fountain to pop in the middle.

[@paigeherrmann6332]

[@RobBuzzy1]

Wow! That's such a cool idea. Looks awesome.

[@gregmccormack5709]

This is Sweet! Now im wracking my brain to try and figure out how to make these with a cavity between the floors so you can do layouts on different stacking levels. This is an awesome build, such a good idea Jeremy.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Just cut out the inner floor area of all but the top few layers, so they are rings and create walls that come off with the top floor. Bit of effort would be required, but it should work fine.

[@AgranakStudios]

Starting my build tonight! Thank you!!!

[@bspcyclist]

I just spent my Sunday afternoon building these and it was a BLAST!! Jeremy, these builds, without the complicated air brush and spackling stuff are my favorites. I can't wait to throw these at my players.
