Painting tall glass bottles:

Get a nice solid colour of what you want the glass to be (e.g. green).

Now, mix in a little white with your base colour, paint a thin line down the length of the bottle.

Mix in a little more while, paint down the centre of this line, a slightly thinner line. Leave gaps where there are concave bands in the bottle's vertical line, and at the bottom.

Now mix in a little more white, paint within that line. Repeat this step until bored.

Finally, glaze with ink of your chosen colour (in this case, green).


For others, think about how the light refracts off of a bottle. Look at a glass bottle in the sunlight, you'll see what I mean.

You can see how the effects work out here:

Anderas wrote:Don't know, too. Apparently you have to paint them like a crystal orb, so dark on top, light downwards, plus white reflections... but only half of it - the rest is "empty glass" and that works only from a single perspective from my point of view.... you see, i didn't have luck with that, too.

Your stretch goals are really difficult to understand. I needed the Excels provided by the community here, to understand everything.
I switched now from Dungeon Dweller to Dungeon Critter without changing the payment; just to have more Gold = more free choice in the end.


Heh! Im looking forward to painting some more and trying it next year :P Will be able to paint all this scenery up for my own games probably around ... next May! :P

Yep, there are a lot of stretch goals popping up now! Today we will have some new images and tools to help you organize them |_P

Nice one Sjeng! Gotta have gold for the gargoyle! :D :gargoyle:

Thanks Slev! Will try that :D Wonder if it will work painting the upper half like clear glass.

Ahh ok Hero of Retro :) There is a little wait on larger orders at the moment, of a few days, since we are all infected with kickstarter fever :P

Updates with revealing the Giant rats! :cheese:

Yea ill swap that to a Wizard then. I know the feeling lol, Not much sleep last few days xD

Here is a gem from one of the "Crowdfunding specialists" (took the names out)

Good day!

After personally reviewing your Kickstarter campaign for Twisting Catacombs Miniature Dungeon Scenery, I feel we can help your crowdfunding campaign attract more attention so your project can get more money. My company ####.Com has helped many crowdfunding campaigns achieve and even exceed their funding goals - some by as much as 1300% – and we can help you too.

Please note - that was not a typo - I did mean to say over 1300% (one thousand three hundred percent). I realize you probably have received - or very likely will soon receive- communications from other companies offering services similar to #### but there are two very important distinctions between my company and every other that you need to be aware of so you can make an informed decision to help your crowdfunding project succeed:

1) #### is the pioneer in crowdfunding promotion. Our founder ##### formulated an affordable, effective service model that helps as many people as we can at the lowest possible price to fill a need crowdfunders had no access to before in getting much-needed promotion for their crowdfunding projects. Long story short: ##### is the first crowdfunding PR & advertising agency of its kind.

2) Not content to rest on our laurels as the innovator in crowdfunding campaign promotion, #####'s current president IAN continues to perfect and improve upon the original proven model FRED designed which empowers us to get superior results like no other company can.

Our best-in-class crowdfunding promotion services include: - A press release written by a copywriting professional with over 20 years of experience. (Unapologetic note: None of our competitors can even come CLOSE to delivering this kind of expertise at ANY price.) - We give your campaign the widest possible media exposure possible by getting your press release submitted to the three most established newswires on the planet (Reuters, The Associated Press and ReleaseWire). Not stopping there we also handpick up to 10 of the most popular websites relating to your project & send your press release to them directly. This invites the most established media influencers in any given industry to give laser-like focus to your crowdfunding project. - We continually attract new potential backers to your crowdfunding campaign thanks to day-and-night promotion of your project through Facebook and Twitter.

If you decide to pass on my offer I'll completely understand. But please don't waste any of your precious money on other companies who usually come up short, might rip you off or even disappear entirely leaving you holding the bags while they run away with your money like a thief in the night.

I realize that might sound harsh. If you'd like, I'll be glad to share with you the feedback we've collected from clients who ultimately hired us to help promote their crowdfunding projects after they wasted their money and lost precious time when they hired other crowdfunding advertising companies that just couldn't deliver what they promised or follow through on what they committed to do. I invite you to our website at http://####.com to explore all of the different services available to you. While you're there please be sure to read the many testimonials we've collected from satisfied clients as well as review our many success stories. If you have any questions or need more information please get in touch via email or call us directly at #####.

Best regards, JEZABEL

Somebody is full of him- or herself ... But it would be interesting how many (if any) successful KS campaigns employed something like this ... I cannot really imagine it, but anything is possible I guess.

In what country are people's names spelled in all capitals? IAN, FRED and JEZABEL sound like they shout their names all the time.

Don't know if this has been asked or not, but are the bookcases going to be full or empty?
