The Instant Mold is fine and all but it isnt the original, Oyumaru is. You can find it online for much more for much less in money. Check out eBay for it or online dealers. The only difference than quantity and cost is that it comes in colored sticks.

But loving when people, like above, use such mediums to bring their imagination to life. Keep up the good work and keep posting your creations for all to see.

@GrimmJD Thx for the alternate suggestion! I actually watched a video on this one. Pretty neat. So, I think it kinda comes down to location, if you can buy Instant Mold at a local game store, it will probably be your cheapest option (due to shipping costs). If not, snag Oyumaru on eBay.

Nice Man.. Like that alot.. What was that guys name and web site with the book shelf and work area.. That was also bad ass... Like to get the unpainted one.

Good Work Ben..

@MrBigeisback Oh sure - happy to assist. I kinda butchered their name in the video. You can buy those book shelf pieces from a company called Thomarillion. They'll pop right up in your search results (European company but they are pals in terms of shipping to the US). Be strong on the self painting - lots of detail there. I admire your moxie:)

@terrainaholic Thanks, man. Your praise overwhelms me as you always crush it on terrain projects. Who doesn't love those Frankenstein references? Plus, the tank is something kinda new and different to break the ol' terrain routine up a bit:)

Where did you get the miniatures for the Bronze Warders? I don't recognize it.

[YourDungeonMaster]

Do you have these rooms set up before the game starts? It seems like it would ruin the fun if the players can see these rooms before gameplay.

Another fun video. Thanks!

@megamanrocx My pleasure. Sharing ideas is kind of a natural high for me. Plus, video can be a kinder medium on the tutorial side of things. Thanks again.

@MacAttack001 Thanks - we do modular dungeons so this one kinda broke that rule as I don't think a Bronze Warder tank has a lot of re-uses:) I couldn't resist doing it though. Nice way to get my feet wet with Instant Mold.

@worracards Thanks for the tip of the helm.Water effects are great when it's all said and done but they require a labor of love...so your kinds words feel extra good:)
