    I was playing a game with my buddy the other day and he picked a skin for his character that was centipede based. He was super grossed out and kept going on about how much it messed with him.
    I found a ton of mini centipedes for $2 at Walmart for Halloween decor the next day. Bought it, put some on bases, and then used another to kitbash a skeleton I had laying around into some sort of centipede demon. Can't wait till he meets that guy :^)

    I'd love to give this stuff more of a shot; most of the "mini's" I use are bluetack model on coins. It works, and my players enjoy crushing goblins and bandits with their bare hands. But it's not as visually satisfying as stuff like this, It also just seems like a tonne of fun to take some old toys worth pennies and make something out of them!

    • @Blandco
      @Blandco  4 роки тому +2

      If you have been sculpting with blue tack you might want to try out some Green stuff modeling. Green stuff is tough to work with because it's so sticky but once it dries you have a permanent mini. Sadly your players can't easy crush models like that.

    Saw a bag with a miniature castle and knight set. After buying it for about 2$ I made took it home and am glad to see the knight are the right size for Halflings or gnomes (but in full metal armour and wielding a spear of sword and shield). Though the castle itself is rather tiny and not scaled to the knights it came with. I am thinking of turning into a fairy mansion or fortress.
    A building that I treat as a spawner for waves of soldiers to swarm the players. Who knows what will happen when the gate opens again and again, will it unleash another swarm, raise a white flag or maybe let out the captain himself and his best men for the final round?
    Sometimes it is the odd toys you find hidden amongst store shelves that make as good as the expensive minis you find in the grandest game store. ( I think, I hope to see the two small stores I know again for what else they might have in stock).
