The double wide wall piece is good as is (wall spell, doublewide corridor), however, I'd buy a bunch of blocked square pieces also, if you made them. Single wide blocks. Blocks the path up to four directions.
this is where I've been posting my painting progress so far:

Thanks a lot, that's a big wow for me!
Now I'll have to update my site...
Don't know where to take the time... :bites-lip:

Glad (and honored) you like the idea.
Do you want me to send you the toilet, too? I'm pretty sure you like it (at least the concept), but the question is probably rather if you have the time to include further models I send you unasked... :D
Have a look ;)

Heh no probs man :D Yea, do a giant skeleton! Detail will print better and would be awesome

Toilet is a great idea, just may have to be something for a shop later on. Going to have to work out where we stand once all these sculpts are done and prototyping

Hi, my first reply here after a few weeks of lurking. Just made my pledge for the Classic Dungeon Dweller in the late backers scheme. Hoping to replace my broken cardboard furniture!
My suggestion for a future Twisting Catacombs would be alternative miniatures for the baddies, with plenty of variation. The trouble with is with the original Heroquest minis, they all look like clones of each other. Apart from the heros, evil sorcerer and gargoyle. Some varied minis would help add more realism to the game?

This!!!
I hate that all my orks look like the other ork. Same with all the other mini's, but orks I use the most and we have a couple Ork PC's at our RPG and the Hero Quest Orks are the mini's we use for their heroes.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

4tonmantis (in the feedback thread) wrote:Wishing for: Make shift foot bridges, ladders, barricades, and gallows... oh and an actual bar for taverns..

To make a bar, I would put just some boards onto some barrels. And this brings me to the following suggestion:
Just some planks, plates and beams of wood, in different sizes, for the customer to build his own creations. Something like the wood mold from Hirst Arts, but better sculpted. Other materials would be possible, too.
Have a look ;)

Seems nobody's been in here for some time. I'd like to "push" my suggestion about a wooden planks sprue for builders.


Something like this:

that can used to build wooden structures of all sorts:

Would be realtively easy to do, ultra-useful, and your wood structure would beat Bruce Hirst's (for whose work I have the deepest respect otherwise) anytime.
Have a look ;)
