Tudor external corners published and more (read below)

Masterwork Tools post Tudor external corners published and more (read below) from patreon

I've been working on an inn for some time as most of you know. Using cut-stone and tudor tiles for the first floor, and external tudor tiles for the second floor. What I discovered when I started stacking them is that well, the bases of the tudor tiles frankly look like crap when stacked on as a second level. I did a lot of cons...

Masterwork Tools post They don't just go up, they also go down! from patreon

Your Tudor buildings can now level up, with these people risers.  While useful for schlepping things between floors, you can also build stages, decks, daises and other risers with them.

Making OpenForge Grate Again!

Masterwork Tools post Making OpenForge Grate Again! from patreon

We've got a grate release for you this week! Ok, I think I'm done with the puns, for which I'm sure you will all be grateful.  (Whoops, one more slipped out.) I know this isn't useful for the Tavern, but I need a grate for an upcoming game, so I thought I would slip something in between Tavern releases.  We've got ever...

No release this friday

Sorry, I've had some health problems (complete with an ER visit) that wiped me out this week.  I'm feeling better, but I didn't manage to get enough completed to do a second release this week.  I expect things to return to normal next week.

Bring out your bread! Bring out your bread!

Masterwork Tools post Bring out your bread! Bring out your bread! from patreon

I'm starting the process of filling out the kitchen of the Dirty Goat Tavern. I designed this bread oven after looking at a large number of paintings and real bread ovens from the middle ages. Add a cut-down tea light in the interior to give it a beautiful flickering fire glow.This is the most detailed model I've ever created, t...

Cut-Stone Square Doors Released!

Masterwork Tools post Cut-Stone Square Doors Released! from patreon

Another piece needed for the Tavern. I decided to do both wood- and stone-floor variations of this tile.  For dungeons, it will be nice to have access to both square and arched doorways to be able to theme different areas differently.  In my research, I noted that many Tudor buildings have stone lined doors.  I in...

OpenForge 2.0 Tudor External Door Released!

Masterwork Tools post OpenForge 2.0 Tudor External Door Released! from patreon

I'm back now from GenCon.  It was a great time, and I got a ton of new ideas while I was there.  While there I picked up a starter for WarMachine and the books for Frostgrave, so there's always a possibility of some terrain pieces that could double duty for RPG and wargames.

I'm continuing to build out the pieces for...

I was getting a little antsy to do something other then tiles for the tavern, so I created this shrine.

There are two main variations, the shrine, which has four pi...

OpenForge 2.0 Cut Stone Square Window Released!

Masterwork Tools post OpenForge 2.0 Cut Stone Square Window Released! from patreon

Having designed square windows for the tudor style, I thought it would be good to back-port them to the cut-stone series. Like the tudor windows, I've designed this set of windows to be able to take the inserts that dwarven forge uses for it's city builder system.

This piece serves at least two purposes. First, it can resolve the gap that forms when you create a corner with two wall pieces. Second, it can be used as a structural beam to help hold up additional levels.  It also happens to be a necessary set of pieces for the tavern.  To see some uses, and get a preview of how the...

Many times I've built a dungeon with what is supposed to be an impressive room for the boss fight.  Those rooms screamed out for additional decoration to help make clear the narrative importance of the room.  All I've had in the past are a few tiles that have some designs on them, but nothing that was modular to let me...

Masterwork Tools post OpenForge Wall Construction Kit Released! from patreon

I'm sure you've noted that over the past month or two, I've been experimenting with designing tiles with parts that are painted separately then glued together.  External tiles, by their nature, are already suited to being built this way.  Getting the internal tiles built out so they could do it took a bit of rework and...
