Building White Plume Mountain for Dungeons & Dragons - Part 1

[@lalouve3d]

Hey this is my sphynx ! ^^ I'm glad you like my miniatures, I came across your channel by chance and I really like what you do !

[@Miscast]

Here we go again!

[@mstarot2793]

As a commercial stone mason, who works in restoration, I saw something that might be a good way to help sell the reality of the stairs. Stone steps, when they are used heavily, tend to smooth out in the middle from the foot traffic. Given the aluminum that they were wrapped in a pass with a finger/coffee stir stick/popsicle stick in the middle to flatten them a bit, might work to show that wear. Beautiful work on the corridors. Have you had any issues with cardboard warping on the tiles you're making? I'm considering using an MDF board bases of all of mine to try and avoid that. Again, awesome work.

[@jhenz3378]

good suggestion on the stairs

[@wouldntyouliketoknow5064]

I usually use a mix of mostly pva glue or mod podge and a bit of black paint. Helps seal the cardboard and lessens warping in my experience

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

Never seen a ceiling in dungeon tiles before! Very cool

[@KAKADOUJACK]

Wyloch, by profession I'm actually an archaeologist, and I've been inside many sites built out of basalt and tufa and other volcanic materials, as well as working inside old lava flows. I must say, you've perfectly nailed the color palette and even texture of those igneous rocks in your design. Also, just great work in general, keep it up!

[@jwebholes7377]

As a 3rd party reading your post I just want to say what an awesome compliment!

[@gggg-hq4td]

As the 4th party reading, i also compliment this compliment.

[@Razsteroid]

I'm at a party and I need to know what you guys want on the pizza

[@KAKADOUJACK]

@@Razsteroid Sausage, peppers, and onions with extra sauce would be great, thanks.

[@ritinkornas5336]

Am I the only one who directly imagined that sphinx playing with the glass spheres like a cat, when seeing that thumbnail ? XD

[@Craftlngo]

This is one way to distract a Sphinx. Well it should...

[@TheRedBard]

Still so impressed you're going from one right to the other, and I am so happy to see my two favorite modules get this treatment!

[@KnarbMakes]

That corridor paint job was supreme!

[@tp6498]

Yes! Thanks once again Wyloch for giving me a D&D crafting series to watch that I can just tune out from the outside world and lose myself in for 20-30 minutes at a time. 👍

[@AzraelThanatos]

Just as a note, with room 24, you really don't want to shrink that room...several of the other encounter rooms are also not ones you want to shrink. The main reason is that with several of them, part of the balancing of the encounters depends heavily on the room for it.

[@euansmith3699]

That aluminiminiminimum texture on the walls works so well. Those 2.5D steps are so cunning 😎😍🤩

[@subascosauce8288]

I don’t even play D&D but I could watch you make realms and worlds all day long.

[@galan8115]

I absolutely love the precious moment of a project when : WEll, he is just dabbing paint in there, everything doesnt look nice. **Drybrush**. NOW. NOW ITS AWESOME.

[@ZaranDoesStuff]

The only thing I dislike about your videos is that they have and end! I could watch you build stuff all day, super inspiring! Can't wait for the next part.

[@bransencortez7353]

My man you are 100% the exclusive reason i got into dnd. I stumbled upon one of your videos when my youtube autoplayed and im a big crafter so you can imagine youve single handedly created a large new hobby for me. Thank you so much!!!

[@paulschultz2331]

Nothing like an epic crafting journey with Wyloch. Love it!

[@RollforDamageRFD]

A master in his element! This series will be amazing!!!

[@Anon_Omis]

That wet on wet blending with black and medium gray made a really nice obsidian looking texture.

[@dmblair4244]

This reminds me of my old keep on the shadow fel that took up my whole 2 car garage... Man those were the days.... I miss playn D&D my friend...!!!

[@uriance88]

Definitely glad I waited until at work (Monday morning) to view this - watching on a tablet just wouldn't have cut it.

[@greglensink5265]

I haven't been this excited for a vid to come out on KZbin....ever.

[@fireflower12]

i have never seen someone use tinfoil on tiles like that, those are STUNNING! you make me so inspired to craft new stuff!

[@username12120]

18:46 You could also have used Popsicle sticks cut to size and slotted into the wall to help secure the overhang for a greater degree of structural integrity.

[@GreyhawkGrognard]

Ohboyohboyohboy... This is gonna be great!

[@trogdortheburninator3621]

I don't play d&d but I absolutely love the esthetic in table top builds.

[@mathardy7615]

Looks awesome. One of the first modules I ever played back in the 80s. Can't wait to see the 'inverted ziggurat'!

[@erc1971erc1971]

Hell yeah - So happy to see this beast of a project get started so quickly.

[@SuouEtsumi]

So satisfying to see someone actually make every aspect of a certain dungeon!

[@GoblinsCorner]

Tiles look great, and I love the disco balls / spheres. Nice beginning to a great build.

[@HarrisSinclair]

I love these. You had a joke awhile back about fully rebuilding undermountain, so this is fun to see these massive builds escalate. Looking forward the new episodes

[@demetrinight5924]

The muddy floors and stagnant water looks gross in a good way. I also really like your new take on 2.5 D stairs. It looks like you will be able to fit White Plume Mountain on your gaming table. That should keep you from having to touch up your garage floor for the end display. This one is close to my heart as I have run that 3rd edition module that you are using for reference. Can't wait to see what you come up with for the kayak room. (I mean take your time and move at what you deem an appropriate pace but I anticipate it greatly)

[@wargboyz]

love the new tile design - looks way more realistic and easy to make

[@PLPEberronguy]

Your build of the Tomb of Horrors inspired me to build White Plume Mountain right about the time you came back from hiatus (which is also when I found your super amazing channel!) When you announced that you were gonna build WPM I thought "Oh yea the race is ON!" Well here you are, already beating me before I have learned how to make a single tile XDDDDD. I am so looking forward to seeing more of these videos, keep up the amazing work!

[@jimlong3223]

I had a blast running white plume mountain. Can’t wait to see how this turns out

[@brunswicklord6365]

Having enjoyed Tomb of Horrors so much I am strapping myself in for this one. I am fortunate to own the original T of H and it definitely enhanced my enjoyment of the series. I will have to get a hold of this adventure for the same reason.

[@1979benmitchell]

This is awesome!! Never thought of doing tunnels and tiles this way. The "Tin foil treatment!" LOL!!

[@homebrewed]

My first book intro into D&D 5e Was Tales from the Yawning Portal, had a great DM that unfortunately moved before we got to finish out our adventure and before WPM, sad I didn't get to play out my Cleric's adventure. It was by fair my favorite time spent each Wednesday at my local game store.

[@1kickup]

White Plum Mountain is one of my Favorite modules thank you for doing the series

[@shockerck4465]

Amazing. Id like to see some simple and multifunctional like the Caves of Chaos. There is some variety. Maze, Temple, Owlbear cave with pools, Ogre Lair. And could still be used for other adventures

[@MarkLewis...]

With all the different types of videos you make... They're all amazing, but the themed module builds, (this, ToH, etc.) have to be my favorites! You are one of the premier crafters!

[@JeffDrennen]

Bill I love your new look for your dungeon tiles. Good job. One other thing and I know you are falling the module because I checked. Is that spiral staircase it goes around in the opposite direction of most real life spiral staircases. Just thought I'd point that out. Since majority of people are right handed and if you're going down a spiral staircase clockwise you could have an encounter were everyone has to roll at a disadvantage.

[@NOLNV1]

That condensed version is really well realised!

[@JChalant]

oh nice! I like the idea of revisiting the OG modules as you continue to create content.

[@roberticvs]

I like the steps that lead up to that dry hallway and door. Tres cool.

[@mattthedm1455]

One of the best modules and an excellent choice for a build. Love it so far

[@Berserkerworks]

Straight into another dungeon! Off to a great start

[@pigabar7173]

This is Going to be Another Great Project! Thank you for doing this Dungeon it's another classic.

[@5thterrax]

These building maps for modules series you got going are super awesome man and you seem to enjoy them like we enjoy watching them lol Win win I hope

[@Throgmoyd]

As ever, superbly realized and hugely inspirational! Thank you!

[@Blackwarden]

I’m hooked on the new dungeon series already. Looking forward to the next episode. I like the earth colors for the floor. I didn’t catch the name of the final highlight: Barn-something??

[@ZombodyDead]

FolkArt 'Barn Wood'.

[@shayulghul]

"Bigness" lol. I love it. I have the same problem with my favorite 1st edition modules. I've been working on a Temple of Elemental Evil VTT conversion that uses the same approach (stripping down the "bigness").

[@jamielindemann2428]

I really appreciate condensing the map. In terms of what the adventure wants and acrually needs, that's a great idea. If it isn't for tactical effect, the extra space is just for its own sake.

[@johncware66]

Just when I thought you had hit the pinnacle with your last module build, here you go again!

[@BusyBadger]

So pumped for this one. I remember suggesting White Plume Mountain but never thought he'd actually do it! Wonder if I'd be pressing my luck suggesting Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth! That final room would be a glorious thing!

[@Brigadator]

I feel where your confusion came from with room 4. The description states the items will drop into the muck below. When I read that I was thinking the water too. Maybe the floor is still moss and slime (not aggressive slime) covered? Maybe a simple spray of matt paint can resolve the happy little accident... though I just read you'd already redid the room! LOL Love your vids! Keep them coming!

[@derekmann494]

OUT-STANDING!!! Thank you.

[@paperbackstories]

I'm so glad you decided to do this

[@2copperpieces]

I love all of this but seeing you do the stairs was like an "of course!" Moment for me. Thanks!

[@sw33n3yto00]

Excited to see this one. Shocked to see you go gridless, but it does make crafting simpler.

[@WylochsArmory]

Aye, it's gridless but still adhering to 5' in game = 1-1/4" on the tile.

[@RFDHobby]

Awesome! Thanks man.

[@Gamarishi]

Always good to see your ideas! That was a nice start to White Plume Mountain

[@joelparslow5807]

Ah excellent 🙂 your right, these new tiles look really cool and it's nice to see a new method. I'll be honest, when I saw the sphinx I hoped it was a new scratch build of yours with some fancy new techniques. 3d printing makes sense though.

[@optimusWII]

Ooh, I like these new hallways. Also, cool that you're doing another big project. I though you would be burned out for a while and doing smaller pieces after finishing the tomb of horrors

[@kylekornkven]

Holy crap i had that mug. Hardees Rise and Shine!

[@scifi782]

Dude, you're an artist, your creations bring the imagery to life

[@bassett_green]

Yesssss! White Plume Mountain is my favorite dungeon by far

[@D1gital-ZER0]

Wyloch you absolute MADMAN. I'M SO EXCITED for this whole project!

[@RaVirrTheTrader]

Man, this channel is cozy.

[@WylochsArmory]

Try to be

[@TheNicloHD]

These Corridors are incredible

[@theDMsCraft]

Another excellent build.

[@samsowden]

What a gorgeous mat

[@jonathandamattamoreira6324]

I have to say, thank you!! You're projects and ideas were the ones that helped me start crafting for my D&D campaing... Your work is trully amazing!!!

[@tj1993rx7]

Enjoyed the video, got the imagination flowing to paint and craft again, thanks!

[@phyrexianjester1550]

Fantastic job! It looks like you really went all out on this one. Magnets, resin, and foil textures. I’ll be posting my Wyloch tiles on Facebook in a few weeks. Maybe you’ll get some ideas?

[@Tlalchitonatiuh]

This is amazing. I adore your module videos so much. Here's hoping you someday do Lost Tamoachan haha

[@dungeondm5849]

tiles look fantastic

[@live4twilight4ever]

those flooded tiles are so pretty ^^

[@Jason-ji8ql]

I am beyond hyped for this! So glad you decided to do another dungeon build!

[@jhenz3378]

another great video. love the aluminum/wet blend technique

[@glorfendell2967]

I loooove this textured tile finish! It looks spectacular. Thanks for the vid.

[@KilgoreVoid]

The master is at it again. Glorious.

[@EricWilliams-ms3ro]

So happy you are making this, this is one of my all time favorite adventures in D&D.

[@stephenwallace3771]

I love WPM! Very pumped to see this!

[@Rahnt]

Looks absolutely stellar so far! It always astounds me how creative you are with selling textures, fantastic job!

[@Kruudelis]

Love it! Those new hallways look awesome. Can't wait to watch this project progress!

[@dutch6857]

So cool! I was wondering what might be next.

[@greglensink5265]

"I'm gonna have to find a way to live the rest of my life with this." 🤣

[@RM-vw3ov]

Wylock you wild man!!!! Woot woot!

[@RedBairnMedia]

Love it. The hewn stone from the foil looks fantastic.

[@notreallydavid]

'I need a new megaproject to occupy my time...' Like he hasn't got other stuff to attend to at his secret hideout!

[@rob052771]

Great start to another amazing project! I love the new tile/floor look, visually stunning!

[@stompreaper]

Love the stone corridors! Looking forward to making some.

[@delvinginthedepths]

Looks really good, I love the simplicity of those stairs.

[@TheJimmy000]

Constantly amazed

[@LONO47]

This is exciting. Loving those halls!

[@danielramsey6141]

I Love White Plumb Mountain! :D

[@squashedeyeball]

I swear, you're a legend man. Another mega project!

[@Breland1976]

Loving these series!

[@ClawPhD]

Fantastic work as always, the paint job on the Sphynx is great!

[@craftypainter]

Fantastic! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build, and then I want to see you do the Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan :-)
