Re: Experimenting with domes for castle towers
I remember seeing the square bottomed domes before. I have to agree the Onion is the nicest. The other domes need some sort of adornments or beam structure added to them, just something more. Nice ideas. Keep on posting the 3D printed stuff, it's cool. Yes, I agree, and I have worked on that a bit....

Experimenting with domes for castle towers
I'm not sure why exactly, but I seemed obsessed with roofs for CBS and Castles. So for castles I started experimenting with domes. I have this vision of a city/castle/temple with domes. Well, here's what I've got so far. Tower with "onion" dome: http://i.imgur.com/ESVKgNw.jpg An amethyst d...

Re: Castle Builds
Hey Josh, I saw your builds earlier today, and they inspired me to come home and assemble some ideas I had tinkered with a bit. Not so curvy as your, but similar in concept. I like how a few changes piece-wise gives quite a different look. Using Advanced Builder pieces: http://i.imgur.com/GmNQhh9.jp...

Re: Paint Jobs on Theme Packs
I also got the mega necromancer pack, and I think the paint jobs look very good. My main complaint is they are tacky to the touch. I've had them in the open air for two weeks and they still feel tacky. It's been fairly humid here, but I'm also in air conditioning, so it shouldn't be that bad. I had ...

Re: So now that KS5 is over...any let down?
I'm not let down at all. The bottom line, I'll budget $1500 for painted sets and add-ons. Based upon game tile/cavern prices, I figure that gets me 5 or so sets painted, 10+ add-ons, and a mega set. Back in February that's what I thought. Of course, now we all know the DoD KS was organized different...

Re: Improving on a near perfect KS
I would really prefer DF use economies of scale to lower prices, rather than allow them to make a bunch of unique pieces that very very few people will ever get. I mean look at the KSIII grab bag? How many people actually ended up with that mini set that did not even need to be made? Grab bag could...

Best Long Term LED Practices
Now that part two of my Castle has arrived, I have a significant variety of LED pieces. Should I pull the tabs out and check that every piece works? If I do, will this have adverse effects such as batteries going dead or corroding inside my pieces? And if I'm not using pieces should I remove the bat...

Re: A place to discuss the wonder of it all!
I'm afraid I may have to pass on the burrows for now, although I'd love to get them eventually. This is where I worry the kickstarter approach can mess with DF's decision making. Of course, they'll produce enough for the Dungeon of Dooms and any that get ordered through the Burrow sets, and some mor...

Re: No notification commiseration thread
I just got good news! I got a shipping notice for the second part of my pledge. The first shipment was about 25%-30% of my pledge. Now the rest is shipping including my primary pledges, a Count's Castle and a Watchtower, plus many add-ons. Egg-sellent!!!
