Cathedrae Noctis: HellWorks II

File Size = 30.3MB

$16.99 USD

As the grim tolling of bells peals out of the bellfry, snarling gargoyles and faceless statues seem to somehow acknowledge your arrival. Towering pillars cast long shadows in the dimly lit gloom of these towering halls. Somewhere a demonic choir sings a blasphemous hymnal as the rotting corpses of sinners and devils line the pews. Don’t lower your head! Don’t fall to your knees! And don’t bother praying… it won’t help you now. This is Cathedrae Noctis… where even angels fear to tread!

These are some of the simplest terrain you can make. Just a few 3D elements to give them something to help them stand out. You can find the files HERE at Dungeon Crawlers in the Download section.

HELLWORKS

Matt Lyon takes you to the very depths of Hell with WorldWorks Games’ “HellWorks”. Fire and brimstone dominate this model set with a demented landscape of pain and suffering. Packed full of unique ground tiles, modular cliffs and props, the world you design will take your players to chaos demon realms and the Chthulian explorations of your darkest nightmares! Almost any game genre or type can enjoy our Hellish vista. Hell, maybe it’s not even “Hell”, perhaps this represents an apocalyptic valley of death or an alien battlezone! However you decide to implement HellWorks in your next game you’ll be happy to note that it works with all of our other modelsets for the ultimate mix-and-match utility. Not only that but it comes in zero-grid, 1-inch, 1.5-inch AND hex formats for the ultimate compatibility with your game system.

Download the model HERE

This was a difficult model to build. Not because of the number of pieces. Not because the size of the pieces. No this model is difficult because of the curves in this model. If your a beginner than I can’t stress enough how important it is to take your time. This is not a model to make quickly. You will be required to set it down and let it dry several times before it’s completion.

Welcome Back! This is part 2 of my 3 part mini-series on building Cellar Dweller’s Blacksmith shop. It’s been a while so you may want to reread the first part, which deals with the actual construction of the model . This part is concerned with the painting and Part 3 will deal with “finishing”. (You thought painting it was the end? 😮 )

Warhammer Buildings – Mini Review

Why a mini review? Simple… I bought the Warhammer Building Set (The Big One) and if I tried to do a how-to, I’d never (EVER) finish it.

This project began a long time ago. Situations both personal and business related conspired to slow me down. It goes without saying that when I start a project with an eye to turning it into a how-to article, it takes 10 times longer to do than if I just sat down to do it for fun.

Carving Sprue Plants

I was asked to write a “how-to” on making plants out of sprues.

“What are sprues?”, you ask.

Sprues are the plastic frames that multipart models or minis come on. Most people cut the pieces off and throw out the frame. Not me. I never throw anything out (much to my wife’s displeasure).
