In this video I started building the single most ambitious piece of terrain
I’ve ever attempted, A 2x2 subterranean dungeon terrain board that I will be mainly using for the death house dungeon from the D&D adventure Curse of Strahd, but built in such a way that the that the dungeon rooms are all removable so it can be used for skirmish games as well!

I like that you tend to do cool builds. Multi-media builds are using the best of all worlds, commercially bought stuff, 3d printed, and hand crafted are all tools to use.
i love this, the whole "i just did it this way instead" vibe is great inspiration, there are so many great terrain and even explicit dungeon crafting videos, but some of them can be a bit show offy, i really love the diy just do it with the tools you have and have fun and dont let your inner perfectionist yell at you style
Thanks so much!!! Yeah that's very much the attitude I approached this with, I just wanted to get it done my way with the tools and materials I already had!
Looks great. I really like seeing the methodology of "just getting it done" and using all the little scraps. So far it looks fantastic, I think it's going to turn out fantastic.
Can't stress enough how beautifully modular and smooth both the scenery and the "squaaaaarespace" are.
Death house! such a classic.
Thanks Lyla!!! Have you played through it???
I like the way you say "Squarespace."
Carry on.
There may be times when an adhesive that isn’t hot glue would be a better choice, but I always go back to hot glue because it’s just plain FUN to use. It’s just so satisfying. Looking fun!
I often find myself, when discussing colours and paints with people, saying 'perhaps you'd find Pale Sand useful' and your face will appear in my mind
Awww yisss! It's Dana Howl day!
My company thrives on dungeons and lasers ❤
I love the new D&D videos.
So very impressed with the work so far! As someone who played this map over VTT, I cannot express how much I would have loved to have played this area IRL using this dungeon.
YES
I thought you might like this one!! It’s definitely a bit inspired by your serieses where you build whole D&D modules room by room!!!
This is just sick. Makes me wanna finish the set pieces i started like 6 months ago lmao
Amazing. I've got zero time to do something like this for an area my party will spend one, maybe two, sessions in. But I would absolutely love to see the looks on their faces.
Pumped to see the next video! Awesome idea.
Dana really loves saying "Squarespace". Great work so far, cant wait for part 2!
I can't wait to see the terrain used.
Looking forward to seeing your Curse of Strahd campaign! I just finished a 2 year campaign and it was amazing!
Looking really good so far. Giving me some good ideas for my own campaign.
Let's go!!!! This looks awesome
Very cool thanks for sharing
Ballin'. That's even harder than I pushed for my campaigns. 😮
I agree! I wouldn't typically go to this absurd level building terrain for my campaign but this is a module I could see myself running many times over the course of my life, and on top of that the terrain is quite modular and I could see myself using it for many different things!!!
Making the modular tiles slot into the big piece is such a cool idea, curious for the final result !
What a great project! This is excellent.
Nicely done, love your work.
When does the game start? Really looking forward to it.
Hopefully in December!!! I’m just a bit behind on editing at the moment, sorry!!!
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
This is really impressive, I love it
Man, this is gonna be great! 😊
Very impressive!
I love watching you work I have learnt a lot from your video's
Have you taken a look at Dragon's Workshops Model of the Death House on Drive thru RPG? He made the full death house including the dungeon!
Did somebody say Pale Strahd?!
it causes me physical pain to see you cutting this all with an exacto! oof! Olfa knife really makes quick work of it, I use a kershaw blade sharpener with mine so I almost never have to change the blade, well worth it. Its also great for floor mats and props/cosplay crafting. The proxon would've been nice too, but obviously you got it done with it. I would love to see you crumple up a ball of styrofoam and texture with it. I know you meant Tin Foil, but it made my laugh, as I was listening more than watching when you said that line. Looking forward to the Part 2, its looking great!
Currently working on a demon realm board for myself! I'm hoping I can make it mixed use as a desert too!
Squaaaaaaressspaaace.
This makes me laugh every time.
This looks like something I can do. I was convinced I can't do stuff like this but I'm not sure why? 🤔
I want to abandon all my current project to make something like this…
pretty much exactly how I feel, all I want to do is work on this dungeon more and add more to it!!!
Be strong, friend. We must endure, and finish what we've already started. Even though the Big Dungeon Board beckons so sweetly...
NICE
I want to go to there and roll D20s.
Checking the other channel now

Wow I hope your insurance will cover all the damages. :)
Or for Mordheim??
it would work great for that! part of the fun of this board is it's going to work great for a bunch of different things!!!!
So I read the title, got 30 seconds in, got excited about Mordheim and just shouted Mordheim. It’s a thing that happens with me. You then totally said it would be great for skirmish games and I realised how unnecessary my comment was. Anyway I had fun 😅.
Great video, looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Also I watch a lot of your speedpaint related stuff. It’s been really informative and helpful, much appreciated! 🫶
new voice? new mike or sick?
I just feel that D&D is better mainly in the minds eye. At most on a dry erase board if you really want to be precise about positioning.
Looking good but you do like to make things difficult for yourself, even a cheap kitchen knife would have been easier than the Exacto! On a serious note, your hobby/job depends on you having full use of your hands and the last thing you need is hand cramps or even worse carpal tunnel or RSI so if you domuch more of this stuff get the tools to remove the strain from your hands. Looking forward to seeing it finished.
faceless video?
