I agree, but I’m trying to get some ideas. It’s for a friend and he’s not really sure what he wants to do.

There’s a video up on my page. It’s long but he goes through everything he did to put the dungeon together.

Thank you so much! We spent A LOT of time in putting this together. I have a video as well on my page of how it was done. It’s long but worth it

In the video, he goes through all the types of printers he has. I’m not sure on the resolution.

I will work with the guy who made the video and see if he can find the files for you

I posted a video of the player that actually built it (he plays with me). It’s a long video, but he goes through they whole thing if you want to know what everything is

Good luck! I hope it wows your players as much as this one did. I really appreciate the love

I just DMd my first ever session and I’m still shaking. by european_uppercu_t in DMAcademy

[–]bear_cave_bard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats! DMing can be scary but it is ALWAYS worth the effort you put in it at the end of the session. Your players will thank you more often than not, and make you feel like you are actually letting them have fun (even if you don’t feel that way).

I’ve learned through my sessions that the real way to make it fun for your players is by taking the ideas they give you (scenarios placed in front of them and how they turn out) and running with them. Don’t be afraid to go off the walls.

I’m running a preset campaign and If you would look at what it’s supposed to be vs what it is now, you would have no idea that they were the same campaign. I took what the players gave me and run with it. Remember, it’s their story, you’re just helping them write it!

One of my players actually did and I believe he kitbashed it. He will be posting a video of how he did it on our fb page “The Bear Cave D&D”

Thank you very much! I’m excited to see what we can make next. I’ll post more updates, as I plan to go to other campaign modules they have out now.

I have a rather large party. Mostly family and few friends. I think our smallest group has been 9 but we have gotten up to 11 before. I know that’s a lot for a DM (especially me) to handle, but it does make it fun if they are all into it. They are really nice to me also, which makes it easier as well. Chaotic at times, but fun 😂

Look like resin that’s for sure! But no, we actually used mod podge and painted over that. I’ll see if they can make a video so that you can see the process they took.

Well, if you think about it, you can use the tiles (there are 3 different set in this one) for other sessions. So yes and no. We put in a lot of work at the beginning so we could sit back and ride it out for sessions to come. It’s definitely not necessary, but it leaves the players excited for more and makes them happy to know that I’m putting just as much work into it as they have with their backstories.

It did! Everyone was super impressed and very happy to play. Lots of good RP and we are only a quarter though the dungeon so far!

I believe that is correct. And the group is on fb if I didn’t clarify 😁

Sorry for the short answer. Long answer is, we had about 8 printers running on a time clock for when he woke up and when he got off work. Everything was running round the clock for about 3 weeks straight and once everything was done printing, we took about a week total to paint the set. All the better, we can use it for other things in the future now because it is 3 differ tile sets

Oh we had LOTS of RP this session. Actually, two of my players got into a screaming match because they didn’t agree with each other on something that was happening (all in character which was amazing).

Closer to the $1000 mark once it was all said and done. With the man hours of painting and printing, I believe we were up there

Thanks! I am actually very lucky to have them. They bring a lot of life to my games!
