#TabletopWitchcraft #HealingFountain #HeroQuest - Ігри
My daughter and I decided that we have to try making this. We live in New Orleans and a lot of our cemeteries have these because you can't just bury caskets in the ground. Ours won't be as elaborate as yours because we've never done anything like this. But we thought we could give it a try and make a cemetery to represent New Orleans.
That's great enjoy the build. One of my patrons built a huge New Orleans style cemetery. He won the Craft Off in The Coven. You can see a picture of his build in the community tab of my UA-cam channel!
I bought Hero Quest when I came out in the 90's. Sat on it for about 30 years, till I had kids, and we played it together. Didn't know anyone growing up that was interested in this stuff. I love my kids, for being my friends.
Jeff McKenzie That’s awesome. Good things come to those who wait! :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT lmao sorry I didnt comment on your build . Its awesome. I painted a few of the game pieces, but they are sub par compared to yours. Thanks again.
Jeff McKenzie No worries, and thank you . Keep painting those minis :)
The versatility of this piece surprised me, I’ve not seen that done before in diorama making! Love this! My new favorite channel🥰
That’s awesome Alex! Thank you. Welcome to the channel, and I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
The best thing about Hero Quest, is the brode swode
The MUSCULARITY!!!
*Brode swode*
BRODE SWODE! I love that guys video. Made me want to play hero quest again
These PDF plans really makes this easy. I've built the fountain and the shrine so far, they totally go together! Plus, they both fit perfectly on top of my 3x3 tile system. Love that these pieces really can represent many different things. Trading posts or infernal portals!
Thanks for sharing that Niklas!
Heroquest is one of my farorite game. I have done furnitures in foam instead of cardboard. Your realisation is fantastic
Thank you Patrick 👍
You're kind of artistic precision is the tabletop gaming equivalent of Prog-Metal within heavy music. Precise. Meticulous. Deliberate. I could never, comfortably, create this way - it's beyond me...& it's astonishing how you're able to artistically sculpt in this manner - & let's be honest, you're not creating instruments of game play...
You're masterfully creating small jaw dropping functional pieces of art. Absolutely amazing. True ART.
There's no other word for it.
Astounding.
Really enjoy your channel. I use it as rest time for my ears when I'm not researching music.
-Dustin
Thank you very much Dustin... I really appreciate that! Inspiration for me to keep on filming :)
Love the modularity!
Thanks Kevin!
Truly awesome, John! Love the work on the columns, really great! Love the modularity of your pieces, they give me a nice surprise feeling... Bravo!
Thanks so much Max. I'm happy a HeroQuest connoisseur such as yourself enjoyed the build :)
I'm kinda jealous of your Hero Quest childhood memories, growing up in East Germany these games didn't exist.
@@tokrakcrafts967 sadness...
Heroquest is where it all started for me...man, how time flies. Awsome built 👍
I know right... I still remember opening the box like it was yesterday.
Hero Quest was the game that opened the door for me to miniatures and crafting. Extremely awesome build as always!
Same here... Thanks :)
Hero Quest was my jam back in the day. Still have my original game in the box! I also NEED that shirt....
Mike Franco Awesome... worth some coin!
What a fantastic multi use build! Loved the way you made the water fountain sections removable to reveal some crypt gates behind!! I still have my boxed set of HeroQuest, played it to death when it first came out. Most of the figures have since vanished, I still ha e the Necromancer though but used him as a wizard in my Kings Of award army. Thanks for sharing this awesome build with us....looking forward to the next build vid!
Thanks Andy ! I HQ with my kids now... brings back all kinds of memories :)
Very very nice build. Well done and i like how you switch out the fronts to change things up. Exactly to my taste.
Glad you like it!
Tracky intro with one of the best gateway games ever! Love it!!’
Nicely done. Fun, functional, and fantastic!
firehigh38 Thanks x3 :)
I'm a simple man. i see HeroQuest i click like.
lol... hard not to right.
Only thing to do.
Nice work with the lions, my plastic zoo set creatures are now in peril.
David Brown haha, nice.
nice intro! love the drop the mini sculpt on the board! what a great sculpting idea
Awesome, glad you like it haha.
The best thing about Hero Quest is the gargoyle
He is pretty awesome !
Rockin
Thanks :)
Man! This is just awesome. Definitively going to "borrow" your idea of this and incorporate it on a DnD game I'm helping run. Thanks for sharing, 'cause this right here is now one of my favorite crafts you have made. I totally see this in, like, a new series, just like the sewer one you made. Liked and saved on my favorite list for later.
Before seeing this build, saw Jeremy on Black Magic Craft and he made some wicked alien eggs. Now I'm thinking of how can I meld your and his crafts in to an encounter...So much inspiration.
Thanks Emanuel... I'm happy to hear that. Yeah, I saw his video too... both egg videos in the same week :) Maybe your players encounter his eggs and get violently ill, then need to find this fountain for the cure??
I did it in the exact same sequence. I was thinking of these type of eggs in lieu of the ones that Jeremy was recommending, though.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Definitively the way to go with it and maybe at first they don't notice it. They were infected with some like hallucinogen gases, or the creatures that came out surprised them, bit them, got infected and if they don't get help they'll get like a cures of some sort. Then the fountain will be the way to lift the curse. Uff! It's official now, challenge accepted. Thanks again for sharing, can't wait for the next build. Well I really have to wait though lol.
@@anthonystike6034 I remember he has two crafts on eggs, maybe they could work together, like a "matured" kind of ones for the resent ones and the "young" and recently laid eggs for the old one.
Emanuel Let me know if they make it !
I really like this build. The only thing I wouldve done differently was for the crypt was maybe bring the doors or the back wall of the mausoleum a little more towards the panel with the fountain to give it a look like the mausoleum look bigger some what since there is so much empty space between them. But I agree it looks awesome
A very cool idea Michael... and thanks!
Like maybe have the doors and the backside up closer to the easter egg to eliminate some dead space between the two, but still allowing a little bit of space between them so that over time the egg doesnt rub indentations into the other pieces.
Since you had already placed the magnet into the face of it. You couldve placed the fountain panel on then rather marking where the door panel was to be placed like you did in the video. Just attach the doors directly behind it so you know for sure how close you needed to put them and like I said giving the look the mausoleum is much bigger.
Really awesome John! You aren't just a crafter dude you are an artist!
Thank you so much Frank... I really appreciate that !
You keep knocking these builds out of the park! Great job my man, you’re a real credit to the crafting community. Any chance you’d do a whole series of Hero Quest inspired pieces?
Marty Lybbert I think I will... I’ll just keep adding to it over time! Thank a lot :)
MaxDM Crafting did some Hero Quest builds if i remember correctly, go check him out, he deserves your attention.
Tokrak Crafts thanks for pointing him out, I’ll go have a look.
Gotta love HeroQuest! BROHD-SOHD!
idontdonething Right on.
Another cool project, I like how it turned out!
Really digging the versatility of this! Awesome work as usual!
Thanks !!
Fantastic work my friend, you most certainly did this old game justice! I do hope we get to see more work inspired by it. I always played elf as well!
newbluedisk Right on!! Maybe I’ll start a playlist and keep adding to it... good idea!
Hero Quest. Nice.
I had to laugh at the image of you 'Bedazzling' all your props and jean jacket to match. 😂
Haha, came close :)
Something like that would likely be built of linestone or marble I would think.
Wow! Fantastic versatility. You take this craft to the next level! Thanks for sharing your creativity and knowledge in a very clear way to follow along easily.
Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed the video :). Also thanks for the feedback!
So, amazing piece again. I totally like that it is modular. I noticed you put the magnet it, but then didn't attach anything to it. BTW, crafting tip: to save magnets, i have been using plain old Daisy BB's. They are steel and like 350 of them are under a dollar at Walmart. Being steel they have enough iron to stick to the magnet.
Michelle Renee Great idea Michelle. I use metal at times. There is another magnet on the back of the fountain wall :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT oh. i see. i missed that. sry.
Michelle Renee No problem :)
Nice build! Lots of great techniques I will definitely use. Thanks
Awesome! Thank you!
Man I loved hero quest, my little brother got it for his birthday or Christmas or something and he barely played it but I got plenty of use out of it. I really wish he hadn't lost so much of it , there are still some goblins and a chaos knight or two left that he gave me . BTW the Barb was where it was at he was straight beast mode !
At least you got some good memories out of it !
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT your pretty wise for an elf lover lol, great video BTW!
@@josephskiles haha... here we go ;)
I have got to get a hot wire table. It’s just too useful!!
At this point its essential for me!
Brilliant work! Your projects are amazing and very helpful! One area of crafting I have trouble with are steps and staircases with XPS/foamboard. Any chance you could incorporate some advice or techniques into a build? Would appreciate your expert take! Thanks for your great work!
Thank you. I'll keep that in mind for future videos. Have you seen the staircase I made in the castle video? Here's a link: ua-cam.com/video/meIX-ow3xQs/v-deo.html
The Hero Quest I loved was by Sierra. Eventually had to change its name because of conflict with Milton-Bradleys version to Quest for Glory. Still one of my favorite games 30 years later
I hear ya, a true classic!
Another great build tutorial.
Glad you like it
I think I'd put a little statue mini in that other alcove
Yeah, that would definitely look good. Tons of options!
Love the Heroquest intro!
And the T shirt!
jamie69murphy Thanks :)
Wow! You gave me a lot of nice ideas. Thanks.
Excellent!
Super! Really find your creativity inspiring
Steven Vogt Thank you Steven.
Great job as always! Thanks for the vid!
László Bali Sure thing, thanks!
i have been watching your videos and i'm in awe! i am loving all of your builds and i can't believe you don't have more subscribers!! every video has such a gorgeous thumbnail and they never disappoint. your creations really are so beautiful, and practical too!
That’s so kind of you Grace, thank you for the compliment and the feedback. I’m glad you found the channel :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT me too!!! this is a type of art that i never tried before and it makes me excited about its possibilites to try it!
Cool I love hero quest
Loved the dwarf
Yeah, such a fun game... I have more in store for this on the channel :) I'm a fan of the elf.
love it am going to make one thanks
Timothy Garrison Awesome, thanks and have fun!
I wonder if those eggs would cut with a hot wire set fairly high? Mebbe one of the handheld bow types (so you don't mess up the Proxxon)? Interesting that you and Jeremy (BMC) released eggcentric videos in the same week! Recycling FTW.
The pin I heated up went thorough no problem. I have a hot wire knife, not sure it would cut it... literally. I'll keep that in mind for the next egg build haha.
Absolutely Awesome Piece! And very versatile as you put it ;)
Might be a cool idea to add some more inserts to give it even more uses. Maybe an insert for the backside when using it as a cryptentrance to give some more illusion of depth to the piece. Or another side to the gate so it would work well even as a freestanding gate, like an entrance to the cemetery itself. Lots of possibilities!
zerosius Awesome ideas!!
Awesome! I loved it! Cheers from Spain! 😀👍
Thank you, happy you found the channel !
Amazing!!!
Thanks!!
HeroQuest: the hobby that's gone rogue! (Still playing it, although it's been a couple of months, because of the COVID thing)
One day things will be back to normal, and Zargon will be on the defensive once more.
The elf rules!
Drew Jameson Agreed
I subscribed to you channel, you explain your work very well! This is really awesome!! I ♥ your channel!!
Thanks for the support and feedback Liam. Enjoy the content. I aim for new videos every Friday.
Smashed it! Ingenious build, thank you so much for sharing. :-)
ImperialKneazle You got it, thanks for watching.
John, your builds are absolutely amazing. I look forward to your videos every week, you've inspired me to make my builds more and more modular using your magnet technique. This is yet another example of brilliant creativity! I would like to ask if there is another type of material you would recommend instead of the toy egg shell, since those seem to be sold out in my region.
I love to hear that Nicholas! The egg is used as a "skeleton" for the clay... You could use two sections of an egg carton, tape them together and use that for your form. You could glue an XPS foam block together to that size and carve it out of that. You could even form that shape out of a tin foil. Let me know if any of these techniques work for you.
Perfect multi use piece. could you also add a blank piece to fill in the opposite side, if you were using it as a tomb or shrine?
Thank you Gary. Great idea on the tomb!
D&D just looks more fun to play.
And hey man, make me some castle doors! I can't figure out how to go about it... Foam, wood.... dunno.
Have you seen my medieval door video? Here's a link: ua-cam.com/video/gwxfJIVUo_4/v-deo.html
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Ah man, yeah I did. Made some of those too. I'm talking about a big one you see as you approach a castle. The big one you see guards standing at when peasants come to town for market day. I've got all the towers and walls made but can't figure out how to make the big doors. I'd like them to open and close... that's the part that's stumping me. I seen your sewer gate vid. That's kinda the idea. Not sure how to actually do it though for my castle wall build lol.
Jon Do ahh ok I get you now. More of a big archway with a gate... leave your weapons here sort of post. I was going to say my Portcullis video is the idea. You would have to work the gate in somehow. I’ll add it to my video suggestions :)
Cool techniques dude
Thanks :)
For what i've seen... In this hobby, new techniques are the future, besides mastering all basic terrain. Jeremy has a great video on everybody's first build (obviously not for you, but you get the idea lol)
Another fantastic modular build! I love that so many of your creations are two-for-ones. Thanks also to...your brother?
Michelle Hammond Thanks Michelle... oh yeah... that’s my brother :)
Cutting through the hot glue joints, (no problem).
How about cutting through an Elmers glue joint, or a mod podge joint ?
(with the proxxon hot wire cutter).
The Firmament Hot glue is a bit different. I’m not quite sure if the Proxxon would cut through pva glue... something I haven’t tried.
HeroQuestttttttttttttttt ! Your videos are all amazing !
Les Souterrains Oubliés Thank you Les!
Love that game! Unfortunately my water main burst 2 yeats back and destroyed mine, along with other collectibles. If we get thru this crisis. I'll get another from Ebay.
LW Riker Aww that’s too bad :(. Grab another if you can!
I just wanted a catdog miniature
Wicked good! Ayuh!
Thanks… lol Mainer?
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Ayuh!! Boothbay! You’re a Mainiac as well I believe?
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT I run a Dungeons and dragons game at a comic book store in Brunswick every two weeks. I am running a party through Curse Of Strahd, and just focusing right now on making little bits of scatter terrain to put down on my white gridded battlemat, Covered with two pieces of plexiglass and I use dry erase markers. You do some great work man!
Cut away from your damn hand man lol. You cutting that plastic wrap off that egg was making me tense up 😂
Nice.
Doug Pridgen Thanks Doug.
very cool, Hero Quest was my sh!t. I'd love to see more artifacts from it as would others I'm sure.
I've had a bunch of requests for more HQ videos... I might add to it over time and make a small series out of it.
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT sick
Dude, your stuff is epic and it inspires me to make better stuff lol.
Thank you Darren, with every craft your skills increase...
Besides the Proxxon table cutter, is there a hot wire cutter u would reccomend?
There are other options out there, but I have only used the Proxxon.
very groovy
Amazing craftsmanship and the artist is uber hot
Thanks.
what miniature was the knight used in the video? Fantastic job! Such a versatile piece.
Jeremy Neireiter thank you. It’s the crusader swordsman by Reaper Miniatures.
Great build! Personally love the look of the metal doors and the lion fountain as small details like that really take it to the next level. As far as the white-brown stone material, I think limestone, marble, and granite are (or were) all commonly used, but whatever stones were locally available would work for gravemarkers, crypts, stone coffins, and mausoleums, so it sounds right to me! (Not an expert, just an educated guess.)
noixamyd Thanks noixamyd !
Smart and interesting build. Like how you think, dual use etc. Sculp a mold not available on Amazon. Anywhere else we can get it? See a lot of kinder eggs disappearing.also dollarama has little bottles,would make great potion bottles,health etc.
Kenneth Young I grab mine online. Are there any local craft stores? You can make your own too :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Canada Amazon has none ,so have to either wait and hope ,or make my own. Will check on UA-cam lol.
Hey, John. Was the stone you were thinking of called travertine? Another top notch build with built-in versatility. Nice work. So, I was thinking: do you have a Dremel tool? It's very handy for crafting and I use mine a lot especially when I'm working on Gaslands vehicles. But it's very versatile and can drill, cut, grind, and more. I noticed you could have used one instead of the heated paperclip method for making the hole in the plastic egg. It could also take the place of a pin vise, too. Just an idea. Anywhootie, thanks for sharing. Cheers, --Bo
Hey Bo, yep, I have one. I used it every now and then in my builds. I used it a lot in my foam roller video. As for the stone Travertine... sit tight, I have a video in 2 weeks that is made to look exactly like that stone! Great minds think alike :)
Your builds are so amazing and i love them, but you really need to work on your camera focus half the time it is blurry. even the shoots at the end. Just amazing builds thought.
Thanks, yeah I'm working on that.
zero views gang!
Nice build man
Thanks
Добрый день! Очень нравятся ваши работы....подскажите,как называется ваш прибор ,которым вы режете пенопласт?
Спасибо. Это стол для горячей проволоки Proxxon.
Should've used the brodesode.
Classic :)
🤘🏼
I want that t-shirt
There's a link to buy it in the description of the video !
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Yeah but because of the lame custom and toll rules in my country it would cost me a total of around 52 usd instead of 21... :/
TheFlapper666 aww.. bummer.
What music is this it sounds like Fable?
I know, as soon as I heard it that's what I thought too! The song is called Calcifer by Jon Bjork.
Hero's quest uses blood bowl dice?!
Christopher Bollinger I’m not sure... was Blood Bowl made my Milton Bradley?
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT No definitely not. It uses similar dice though. It was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the dice roll cause I've played blood bowl for years.
Travertine?
Its a type of stone.
Can you do your next video in a jockstrap?
Someone has been in this quarantine for too long
I really enjoy your video's. I am subscribed. I watch other video's by other people but, I always feel RUSHED and exhausted by the end of the video and I hate the screaming, I also don't like it when people put their political leanings on their video's, with your style, I have time to digest what I am seeing and hearing. Keep up the great work and, I will continue watching. OH!...I don't do patreon right now because I live on a fixed income, I hope you understand.
Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for watching :)
first
Dude! Terrific content but WHY do you keep the music going past your intro!? Don’t distract your learners
