DnD interest chat

Aww yay love it @AlwaysMyself!!

Gonna tag @The-red-centaur cos I know they're a D&D lover too!

My old DM made us tiny health potions and even made dice towers!! Was amazing what he could do with it - be curious to see what you come up with!!

He even made this cute lil d20 holder 😋

Still gotta paint it but to do so I'd need to buy paints, and apparently they right paints are NOT cheap! 😅

I actually wanted to start a D&D game on the forums at one point. Alas I think I bit off more than I could chew because I quickly realised it would be a LOT of work to try to make it work in this space. But hey if someone else feels like they could make it happen, I'd be so down!

I'd totally be a part of a forum DnD game *nods*. And i guess if someone needs an absence from the forum (delayed response) then their character is just stunned a turn or else is off having a jolly time at the tavern for a short bit 😋. We make up such excuses in our games when someone isnt able to come for a while - currently our monk has "run off with a barrel of brandy and left us all" 😉. It allows us to continue the game whilst not putting any pressure on their need to return to continue our game.

I love that dice holder! 🥰

Maybe my friends need a proper dice jail... 🤔 and then something like that for a "dice throne" for when it rolls well??

Psychology of dice. Very important stuff. 😉

Look forward to hearing from @The-red-centaur if they're interested. 😁😊🥰.

Ps @Jynx , the paint --- honestly i dont think you need to buy the expensive ones. I have both some expensive ones and some normal acrylic paints. I recommend using a plastic-primer paint first to help the paint stick though, whichever paints you use.

If you like the thin watery texture of the expensive ones (flows into model cracks easier and more even), you can water down acrylics too.

The biggest benefit i find of the expensive ones is that they have such a big colour range i can get the exact shade i like and i dont have to try to remix the colour later when its run out or dried up (which is a problem when mixing my own colours).

I do like the size 000 brushes that you can buy though, and i do find the more expensive ones last longer of them.

@AlwaysMyself Some of the things I was thinking about was like... how do we do dice rolls? Honour system? What about battle maps, stuff that really needs the visual component? Unless DM is literally in charge of all of it - which is a very big job. But hey if you can pull it off, it could be really fun!!

Especially with the little stories haha 'off with a barrel of rum' gave me a good chuckle!!

Yes the dice gods are fickle at times hey!! I've seen some very cute dice jails on like etsy and such, but now I wanna go look for dice thrones!! Though the dragon hoard should suffice for now ahaha

TY for the advice re: paints!! Once I get my crafting space sorted I might have to start experimenting! 😁
