fulfilling Dungeons and Lasers : Encounters

[Guyra]

I just put together the four entrances in the Entrances Pack, and honestly, they're disappointingly small. They certainly can be used, but their usefulness is definitely lower than I had expected:

The mine entrance is the only one I'm happy with the scale of.

(Also, why does the greek inspired entrance's pediment have "XOXO" across the whole thing? :P )

Another comparison shot: The D&L viking inspired boat next to the Wizkids Skycoach(the deck design is my own).

Got mine yesterday!  Big ol box, ahead of schedule.  Deuslair promo stuff looks neat.  Gonna endeavor to knock out as much of the core boxes as quickly as I can and not let if shift into the pile of shame.

Aww man, that’s a bit of a disappointment.  That remains the big iffy thing with Archon.  Scale is all oooover the place.  Tiny, tiny people, dinner plate sized coins.  Wonder if clever basing can help redeeem them?

Well, they're still functional. But I'd definitely use them more often than I will now, if only they were like 20-30% larger.

 

Congrats on getting yours, btw! :D I'm also sitting here, getting as much as possible ready for priming. But it's a lot! Gonna take at least a couple of weeks to go through it all, I think.

Yeah, that's disappointing. I got that set too. The entrance on the left is ridiculously small!

I’m not sure why, but I was expecting the Highland Hut to be bigger than the Renedra Viking House. 

The D&L one is just dry-fit, but I’m fairly certain it will be more “solid” than the Renedra model once it’s glued; for one thing, it’s made of more-rigid plastic. 

Even so, I like the Renedra one better. Finer detail, better seam-hiding (thatch ridge cap), better mould lines & clean up. I’ll end up with more of the High Huts, though. Painted up, they’ll make a nice village.

This is a problem..

[Olaf the Stout]

Seems like a good problem to have! 😀

Did the entire Land of the Giants today. Certainly the easiest to clean up and build of the terrain sets. Almost entirely big pieces, and not too many sprue connection points. And almost all of those points are on very flat surfaces. 
 

I will mention that I couldn't get the pieces of the Chapel to fit well together, so I had to do some cutting. It might've been because I'm not following the instructions at all though, so this might be one that's best to do exactly the way the instructions tell you to. 

For the fallen "Atlas" statue, I cut the arm pieces a bit and glued them onto it as well. I don't need those to be separate pieces.

Oh, and I noticed that the large head with the vulture on it has an extra connection point that isn't used for anything. So don't let that fool you into thinking you've lost a piece somewhere, like I did!

Checked all my boxes this morning. Everything is there with no mis-packs or mis-casts.

 

Several of the terrain pieces looks like they will paint up nicely with very little effort.

[Divaricatus]

Build and painted the Viking Hut real quick. It’s nice that there are two of them! 

These are the samples for the upcoming Deuslair KS.

I don't see any problems, just piles of happiness

I absolutely love your wood coloring

[Guyra]

First stuff I've finished painting. Mainly because it was just priming and wash on each piece(and a dab of off white on the middle thing of the flower). I'm also doing that with some other plants. ;)

 

[Olaf the Stout]

What set is that from?
