I painted a bit of my Dwarven Forge caverns. I've tried 3 different color schemes. I still have a quite a bit left to paint, so I'm wondering which is your favorite...?

Utilize all three for different moods. If you do an entire dungeon in one scheme it will look boring.
All three are beautiful, each in a different way.
left - weird lightning effect
middle - towards ground level with natural light source
right - orc lair!

I like the middle one most, but the right one is more cave like. The left one might be fun for a cave near lava/red dragon/fire elementals. Yeah, use them all!

Cool. Yeah I had planned on using all 3. I just figured I'd have a few more of one that people dig the most. Consensus seems to be the blue, family included.

It doesn't take long at all. You can bust a set out in a couple of evenings. (1 set is about 1.5x each of those rooms) Just do one stage at a time on all the pieces. It's been a slow go for me, however, because wife & kids seem to quintuple the required time for any project. :p

That's funny I would have gone the opposite on that. Right seems like natural cave. Middle is deeper, weird-lighting cavern. Red = lair o' evil!

Got the urge to get more miniatures done and whatnot. My 'boss' door finally came to fruition and truly is a work of art. I'm pleased by it so much that I'm thinking about doing some more to get all the monster their own 'boss' door.

A shot of what it would look like on the table. No the Elf does not normally look that shiny :bites-lip:

A little more progress has been made. Any thoughts or critiques on my custom doors? The fimir was done first then decided I wanted them to be in one piece so as not to have the seam going down the center of them. They look pretty good on the board.

Why do the doors have the corners clipped off? If the door frame matched then it would make sense.

Anyway, here is a picture of my in-progress HQ board of tiles. Still experimenting with the best way to add the cork layer.

I tried them with a rectangular layout and it didn't feel right. I also had in mind the door from Super Mario World (SNES) while making them.
