Bringing the Dungeon to life...

The dungeon project has been around for years, steadily growing into the behemoth it is today... Work is done in leaps and bounds, sometimes it can be (almost) forgotten for years, and then, suddenly, inspiration strikes and a flurry of activity pushes the project a bit farther. The pictures below represent its current state, but, as the project spans several years, I can't post all the pictures here... Check out my PROJECT THREAD on the Hirst Arts forum if you want to see more (much more).

The Dungeon is completely made with Hirst Arts blocks, lots and lots of Hirst Arts blocks... It consists of well over 250 modules, ranging from very small and basic to large and elaborate.

We mainly use it with WFRP (Warhammer Fantasy Role Play) but it has seen action with some other games as well, including Mordheim and even Flames of War (our very own Dungeons and PanzersTM)... 





While the Dungeon is very large, extremely versatile and a blast to play with, it can feel a bit empty...  An empty Dungeon is fine for some scenarios, but most of the time I want these corridors and rooms to represent the halls  of a castle, so I was looking for a more 'lived in'-feel. Hence the last bout of creativity was mainly focussed on adding some furniture and other pieces of smaller scenery. The furniture comes from different sources and manufacturers, made from plaster, resin, plastic and metal... I also worked on adding some much needed NPC's... While not nearly enough to fill the entire dungeon, I can at least make a part quite habitable...
