Do the archvillain models only work with resin printers or can they also be printed on a filament printer?

[@goontubeassos7076]

Tip: Maybe use plastic champagne glasses as a base, shove the cup in the bottom, and it’s transparent. I’ll build these thanks.

[@HouseDM]

Yes! More floating rocks! Do you have any plans to show us some more of your Idols of Torment terrain setups? Curious to see how you’d use this on a battle map. Cheers Jeremy!

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Yes!

[@michaelsharaiha]

No Black Modgepodge! Jeremy! Are you ok? joking, love the video, and thank you for uploading!

[@wizkidd2079]

it's insane you're on episode 277. I remember watching you way back at episode 12. keep up the great work and helpful creative tips for us hobbyist!

[@brendanarmstrong7802]

8:00 - "It's not a very deep black when dry" Me: "Yeah, I'd want it to completely fade away if possible. Might actually be a good use for that pot of Musou Black I bought last year but never found much use foOOHHH, HE'S DOING IT!"

[@Dr3idalman]

its insane how you went from making modular cave tiles to making floating lava islands and making a skirmish game great job I can't wait to see where you go next!

[@CubicApocalypse128]

Love the colors, but it really feels less like glowing lava, and more like deposits of half-molten sulfur. Still, perfect for a fire-and-brimstone hell, or (since I'm more of a sci-fi guy) certain kinds of volcanic planets. edited to add: now that I think about it, fluorescent red instead of the yellows and oranges would really sell the "molten lava glow" if you also have a blacklight or some blue LEDs. Might have to try *that* sometime...

[@MonkeyJedi99]

I like the effect, as if the rocks were hot, but not molten, and additional light was coming from below. I saw the three rocks next to his previous suspended bridge, and I heard Elrond shouting, "Throw it into the fire!"

[@theherrdark4834]

As a variation, and more technical, using glow-in-the-dark paint and making the bases with hidden UV LEDs to light from underneath.

[@jennylawson1980]

Love the floating rocks! A D & D friend of mine attached his by hooks to his ceiling they were so fun to play on because like yours they were really interactive and kept all the players on their toes. I’ve heard of sky villages and hell pits it’s awesome how you have a happy medium with both Jeremy. Once again a great 👍 idea.

[@makeshiftminis9090]

The heated look of the rocks came out great. To me the fact that you decided to use craft paints over an airbrush is encouraging since you got such a great effect with them.

[@schmuckersworkshop4861]

Tip for drilling, add a washer to the drill bit before drilling. Keep the washer straight when drilling. Helps drill a straight hole freehand

[@travismiles5885]

Saw a video recently by a crafter who used a piece of plastic from a soda bottle to make flames. It turned out great and looked real. It would be a cool addition to this project.

[@Blandco]

I always regretted throwing away that one clear plastic dowel thing that I had but seeing how well the black stands work I think maybe I will try my floating platforms in this way.

[@coppercatfox4213]

Keep those videos coming! I am working on an Idols of Torment Table that I will present in my tabletop store. I don't know why, but your game captivates my mind and I want It to succeed so very much. So keep the information coming. Thanks for your hard work! And to be honest, becoming beta tester would be a dream. Maybe the table may catch at least a bit of your interest :)

[@gutterkrawl153]

Floating Hell Islands, Marshes of Eldritch Madness, I guess it'll be a Whirling Vortex of Spell-Warped Insanity next.

[@countjinto991]

awesome video! i cant wait for idols of torment to come out! side note: dremel does make a drill press and its rather affordable. i have one just for my hobbying. it also acts as a stand so i can have the dremmel on and manipulate the hobby piece around it, instead of trying to hold onto multiple things at once. makes it easier for me and my clumsy coordination. i love it for when i'm magnetising a lot of little pieces, like weapon options. i double checked before posting this and its on amazon for 45 USD.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

That’s a great solution and one I always forget about.

[@madns001]

@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial i also suggest a dead man switch as well for the dremel drill press

[@MonkeyJedi99]

[@aaronbono4688]

I've been working on this very project for the last few weeks. I wanted to go more with a stalactite look rather than a floating Rock so I did the top surface in foam and then used aluminum foil and toilet paper soaked in dental plaster to create the body of the stalactite. These things are pretty cool to play with. Love how you went out and found alternatives to dowel rods, I will have to remember that in the future.

[@MonkeyJedi99]

Something I tend to forget is that hardware stores can also be a source for dowels of various diameters from around 1/4" to closet rod.

[@timothyyoung2962]

I could see some of those Archvillain minis showing up as ruined statues for Idols of Torment.

[@UnhingedProductions1]

Welcome back!

[@kallisto9166]

Love the way that Musou black makes the dowel supports just disappear into a dark background. I used it to paint up a bunch of spectral undead as shadows. I was really pleased with the way they just drink up the light, making them look like a dark void.

[@MrRogue1974]

[@jeremycombs7326]

So freaking awesome I have to build these soon.

[@emmafrosticeman]

You could try a drill guide (Like the ones from Lee Valley) to help with the drilling I've rigged one up to get the feel of a drill press without the lost space and a vise under to hold the vertical piece.

Very nice! Your cantilevered staircase inspired me to do something very similar. Main difference is I used cheap stone coasters for a base to add weight and acrylic rods instead of wood.

Wasn’t there a simpsons episode where homer carves something from a wooden spoon? I felt a tingle in my deep memories when i saw you using wooden spoons. Anyways nice work, im getting really excited for this game

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

“They say he carved it himself from a bigger spoon”

[@markgnepper5636]

Great stuff friend 👏 👍

[@creepyshadow]

You should make the dowles connect to a bottom rocky base that has LED's in it that shine upwards towards the floating islands to give a firey effect

[@danholzer4626]

Man I love that intro music!

[@chrishorne5855]

Awesome floating rocks , might need a few more mate 🇦🇺👍🏻

[@ronsorage78]

only thing i might have tried would have been using a wire like say the stuff used to make cloths hangers instead of the wood dowels. sturdy yet thinner by about 2/3 or more.

[@Craftlngo]

real awesome pieces you've created here. To make the dowels even more black, you could spray Musou Black through your Airbrush pistol which creates a real uncanny effect. But on the other hand, I would consider putting xps pieces in form of flames on the base and giving them a fitting colour scheme. I think that could also look really awesome.

[@carrie4910]

Awesome 👏

[@quennedr1]

I can kinda see an idea here where you don’t glue in the bases and can dismount them flip them upside down and have some pieces for a volcanic setting

[@thomaswilliams5005]

Amazing

[@lowlyspy]

My party will one day be making their way to Avernus for the final battle with the Archdevil of the 1st layer so I suppose i'll be needing these. Thanks BMC!

[@TheDungeonMinister]

Devilishly good, sir!

[@DWSP101]

If you want to get rid of the supports use the blackest black 3.0 or use Fanta black it'll help with the illusion way better

[@sbushido5547]

I definitely feel like if you're going to use yellow craft paints to try and simulate fire/lava, you've got to make sure you've got a *_really_* solid orange base coat under it. Otherwise, it can end up looking green (like it does around the top of some of those pieces here), which kinda messes up the effect. It's not a big deal, though, and this turned out to be a really cool idea.

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

I really should have applied the colours in the reverse order.

[@Midnotion]

Chopsticks and skewers can also be a cheap source of wooden shafts

[@BlackMagicCraftOfficial]

Totally. Too thin for this build though.

[@goatelope7539]

Awesome

[@thegamingtome]

Awesome work on those floating rocks. This sort of stuff would be cool for an adventure in the astral sea. The streaks of yellow on the sides could also be interpreted as sulfur deposits. Personally, I would just rely on lighting for the flame glue colors on the underside. It would also be cool to make their stands adjustable in height... maybe with magnets.

[@teagan_p_999]

I think magnets could be pretty unstable, but maybe a telescoping rod?

[@Wildonion1]

They say he carved it himself... from a bigger spoon.
