Ultimate Arctic Terrain for Frostgrave/ Warhammer/ D&D

[@jefimeyerhoff999]

Lovely. The 'fozen pizza' will really come in handy for everybody playing Rime of the Frostmaiden

[@m_d1905]

I was thinking of an Icewind Dale setting as well. I have my Remorhazz all painted.

Pathfinder's Rise of Winter Campaign. Which is why I'm sharing this with my 'crafty' DM.

[@ChibiKami]

@@douglascolquhoun8502 ah, Reign of Winter, aka the waifu AP without spoiling things, just let your GM know some rando on the internet said to find a better way into the dungeon in part 3 than to do 100 climb checks also, ask if you can do milestone leveling since a number of characters may join your party and it's going to get awkward with the XP split if you can't take Leadership

[@douglascolquhoun8502]

@@ChibiKami Already doing milestones. Also, I am playing a Magical Girl anyways, lol. A Chosen One Paladin of Falayna who by 3rd book will have also become a Swan Maiden, Swan form ftw.. (Going for all the Slavic Folktale Tropes, she now has a Reindeer-powered Troika.)

[@KnarbMakes]

I like putting frozen pizza straight onto the middle tray of my oven. Right after preheating it to 450! About 7-8 minutes and it's perfect.

ProTip: There are disposable tablecloths at the dollar store. Don't ruin your counters.

[@m_d1905]

I was going to post this. Get the banquet table size and you can cut chunks to a decent controllable size. It has saved my "craft area", aka the dining room table.

[@richmcgee434]

While you're at it, go to any decent fabric store and just buy suitably colored fabric instead of putzing around with foam. Cut to whatever shape or shapes you want, dye or paint in patterns if you really feel ambitious (although icy greens or frosty whites are easy to come by), and don't waste time on this kind of project. All he's really doing is making a flat colored surface here, which is what cloth is for if you're not springing for one of those fancy (and expensive) play mats or pre-printed maps/tiles. Prof spent more on that bottle of GW paint alone than a similar sized swatch of cloth would have cost. Foam has plenty of uses for 3D terrain, but making flats out of it? No. Just plain no.

[@MySqueezingArm]

@@richmcgee434 You're wrong and you should feel wrong lol. The foam will hold up much longer than the fabric, and is used for the 3d effect to bring the game to life.

[@sonicexpert986]

@@richmcgee434 You'll certainly get a different look using cloth rather than painting on foam - though it's definitely a good idea to use cheap craft paints instead of expensive mini paints, which I believe PDM did - Apple Barrel is typically $2.00 for each bottle, if not less. What the video may not capture is that layers of paint like that actually does create texture in addition to color, which for this project in particular would be highly desirable. But! If cloth looks good to you and you like it, more power to you! Whatever gets people to play at the table.

[@AzraelThanatos]

For the painting and other work, just find some of the large, cheap, plastic trash bags. They can get tossed easily enough and are portable for if you want to work in different places, and by being movable, you can find bits and pieces of things that might get loose.

[@RIVERSRPGChannel]

Love it Anyone willing to die for their game is the man

[@mickeyj71hp]

Professor, your videos are so entertaining. I don’t even craft at all, but I love watching your process. I also admire your honest appreciation of those who have inspired you and that you have learned from. Well done.

[@ronsmith3905]

PDM put on his jacket of +10 stealth just for the fans and pats of the channel. RESPECT!!! Cheers!!

[@rowdyparks6770]

It's worth it, to put my life on the line lololol. Mrs, "blue". Professor " how do you think that got there?" Mrs, "really" . I'm surprised you were able to upload the video! 😅😅😅

[@douglascolquhoun8502]

Thank you, Mrs. PDM for sparing his life. You should post the honeydew list you gave him in order to redeem himself. Thank you, Professor, for being so brave. I hope that the new marble was given a quality sealing first.

[@DUNGEONCRAFT1]

Lol. The entire honey do list is "make more dungeoncraft videos so we can pay off our mortgage."

[@closer2theheart684]

The fact that you have a cymbal just lying around, makes this even cooler. ;)

[@Hdtjdjbszh]

thanks Prof DM, I did a digital version of thise recently and OMG IT WORKS SO WELL! Instead of drawing up and making maps on the PC I just did a close-medium-far circle thing on a VTT and it worked AMAZINGLY!

[@dockerydesigns]

Life in your own hands? Thumbs up cannot be denied!

[@TookyG]

We need more Deathbringer. Deathbringer the backstory videos! Deathbringer the Belgariad Knock-off! Deathbringer the one-player campaign! Deathbringer the lunchbox! Deathbringer the flamethrower! (I'm serious about 4 of those.)

[@seileurt]

I gave a thumbs up purely for the ending Deathbringer joke.

[@douglascolquhoun8502]

I'm fine with just the flamethrower.

[@danielpucher3367]

Merchandising, merchandising!

[@douglascolquhoun8502]

Spaceballs references aside. Deathbringer, MacDeath, and assorted PDM NPC T-shirts and Coffee Mugs would be awesome, once we have helped him grow his channel more.

[@rcgunner7086]

You know it's bad when even Deathbringer sounds chastened.

[@ken.droid-the-unique]

You, sir, are the best. I want to thank you for your content, especially since there was a piece you did on how to write notes for session prep that was INVALUABLE! I would love to see more content like that. Thanks again

[@jubes1300]

I love your heightened level of enthusiasm this episode! keep up the good vibes even in hard times.

[@sonicexpert986]

Great video! Made one of these for my upcoming Rime of the Frostmaiden campaign, only for my glazes/washes I used Pledge Floor Polish instead of water, to thin the paint. It dries hard, glossy, and gives a water/reflective look over the center ring, exactly what I wanted for a frozen lake effect!

[@tomdulski3729]

That figure in the beginning holding the scope looks great.

[@sirguy6678]

Players will enjoy the fantastic ice UDT for the winter based games!

[@medavis]

This zoned approach to terrain also works really well for The One Ring TTRPG combat encounters where there aren't movement rules per se. Instead, characters have stances which determine if they're ranged (opening volleys in One Ring parlance) or in melee (close quarters in One Ring parlance)

[@stefanvoss6341]

I’ve made all the other versions, I need this one to complete my collection 😊

"And I'm Deathbringer" never fails to make me smile.

[@brunswicklord6365]

I had a week to produce 15 Stalingrad type ruins for a 40K game. I knew it was going to be a mess, pva, black paint, grey paint, gravel and sand, bits of coffee stirrer, airbrushing, then the clean up. All to be done in the kitchen. This was not just one building discreetly made but a whole production line. It was all done over a week between 10.30 pm and up to 2am some nights. And Mrs B to this day does not know that it all happened in her lovely kitchen.

[@Aragura]

Nice work as always, thanks for the tips. Now Deathbringer can bring icy cold death to his enemies. Cookie for the metric.

[@kevinhayes9506]

Great job on the terrain. Looks awesome

[@kaineswiftblade]

looks similar to my arctic terrain... I ended up using a pearlescent white to get a shimmer, and I coated mine in a clear glitter sealer ( for just a little sparkle when the light hits it)

Looks great! I made my own arctic UDT a couple months ago, but I’ve been thinking about making a new one with better techniques. The first one was a prototype

[@gondogeek]

LOVE the Frozen Pizza. But it's not for Frostgrave as it is a skirmish game for 2-4 players on a 3X3 square play area with city ruins that are setup as part of the setup rules. But it is still a great setup for tabletop RPG's. Waiting to be able to go to Ikea to get a large lazy-susan. (sexist term maybe, but that is what they call it here!) Cheers to Prof Dungeon Master and his icy play area.

[@ballisticus1]

+1 like for bravado in painting on Mrs. PDM's new counters

[@justanothercaptain6566]

As a Canadian from Northern Ontario, your Arctic 🥶 terrain gets two thumbs up 👍! But sorry Professor, there is nothing I can do or say to save you from the wrath of Mrs Dungeon Master! I think you’re going to have hope to that the magic of a blue box 📦 from Tiffanies will save! Today is not a day to be cheap! 🤣👍🤣

[@peterlarson233]

The first photo you showed of an iceberg I thought "oh come on, that's clearly foam." Apparently not. I suppose that means it's possible to make ice terrain that looks more real than the real thing!

[@AzraelThanatos]

The links you mentioned in the video are missing Also, for ice, adding a thick layer of gloss polyeurethane varnish before the snow paste would upgrade the look. I'd also suggest going with the vallejo snow ground texture rather than the GW option, it's close to the same stuff, but far cheaper for a lot more.

[@randalfgraybeard1880]

How do you handle hazardous terrain and environments in your games? Such as a frozen tundra, desert, a world with spontaneous tornadoes, flash flooding, etc. I'd love to see an episode on this!! Thanks, PDM!

While looking at subwoofers I discovered the term WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor), which definitely influences crafting decisions!
