So guys, it took a lot of rummaging around and documenting but I've got all the major tile types listed in the archive index with how many I made of each type!
This is something that has been much requested and I hope it's helpful :)

Hi Guys!
Just the public post of the lava river templates :)
If you get use out of them consider supporting the channel on patreon, there's tons more rewards!
Hi guys!
Just a quick update, I've been working on the 'secret project' again (finally!) and it's made progress pretty quickly! Hopefully things will pan out as they seem to be and we can have some new patreon rewards for you guys from it :)
As ever, my goal is quality over speed, I'd rather release something to...

So, fun bit first. Because you guys bought a bunch of magnets through the 7% discount I set up for you with the USA supplier, I managed to talk him into offering an even better discount!
Between now and December 31st, the code RP3X2MM10 will get you 10% off 3x2mm n52 neodymium disk magnets at 2022-06-02 17:30:33 +0000 UTC

Hi Guys!
It's DONE! The long awaited day has arrived and I've finally managed to get it uploaded - Enjoy 😀
Thank you all so much for supporting the channel while I've been ill like this, it has been truly moving to hear your words of support and not see the Patreon falling away because of something I couldn't...
Hi Guys, Just thought I'd drop the final preview as I think I'll be able to release the full video on Patreon tonight! I LOVE this dwarven city build, and it really was the new mountainblocks that made it possible. Though you could do overhangs with the old MB the new versions make it instant and easy, and t...

Hi guys!
This is the second last preview I have, and one of my favourite ideas to put together for the video - The Throne Hall of the Pit Fiend!
The idea with this one is it represents the end of a corridor, and there are walls on 3 sides (2 shown) where ranged attackers like Barbed Devils can make nuisances of ...
Hi Guys!
Just another preview for you all - I really love how the hot light casts on the trees! The idea with this build is its a way to show your bad guys doing something epic like rending a crack in the earth before starting combat :)
Editing is progressing nicely, the clips are all in place, I'm halfway throu...
Hi Guys!
So a while ago I got a 5% discount set up for viewers of the channel with spider magnetics, the UK provider of magnets in my equipment list (RPArchive5%)
Well now I've been in touch with the USA source (JC magnetics) and I've managed to get a 5% discount code for everyone! (RPARCHIVE)
But wait, th...

Hi guys!
Just dropping another photo preview batch including my lil kobolds and their dire weasels (and rats) :)
As you can see the new mountainblocks make amazing caves as they're so much easier to set up to be overhanging like this! and the light from the lava just makes the whole thing so much more atmospheri...
Hi Guys!
So as promised here's another preview, this time the finalised version of the stairblock build showing how you can use those pieces to build bridges over the lava that connect to little islands at the bottom :)
For anyone curious, the vampire is loot studios, the undead I believe are artisan's guild &nbs...

Hi again guys!
Thought I'd split this into a separate post given...quite how many pictures are here 😂
These pictures are from my phone camera when I went to the forest in 2019, because my visit this year...did not go to plan! Feel free to ignore this bit and just look at the pretty pictures if you're not cur...
Hi Guys!
I said hello on Discord on Monday but this is the first proper 'I'm back' post 😂
I thought I'd upload some pic of the short D&D scenario I ran Faye through on the weekend - great test of the new mountainblocks. It is SO useful to be able to securely pick them all up at once! (phone camera pics, s...
Hi guys!
I'm currently away on a long scheduled holiday as most of you probably know from the last post, but I scheduled this in to keep you all intrigued while I'm gone :)
This has been the build I've had in mind since the very start, and I'm so excited to finally show it to people! Even if I won't see the com...
Hi Guys!
So as you can see I've been busy 😂. This is the first of 7 (!) large builds I'll be showing off between now and release, I'll be drip feeding them as usual to keep you all entertained while the work continues...
On that note - Earlier this year in January, well before I fell ill, I booked a short hol...
Hi guys!
It took all morning to clean up and reorganise the workshop into the FIRST GALACTIC EMPIR.... I mean, a photography space 😁 (well, that and extensively plan the shoot/script)
But it is so much easier with this overhead light! The room is still cramped but I'm no longer tripping over a light as ...
Hi Guys!
As I mentioned in my last update, I've been working flat out whenever I've had energy on getting a more full set of updated mountainblocks completed - to make some epic setups for this and all future videos!
I think these have turned out perfectly, and though it took a day of repainting to get th...
Hi Guys!
The Lava itself is DONE!
For any new patrons wondering, this project is taking me twice as long as usual because I'm having a hell of a time recovering from Covid and find I need to pace myself - but enough about that LOOK AT THE LAVA!
Damn I am happy with this result 😁
As you can see...
Hi Guys,
The lava is more or less finished now, it just needs the crackle paste on a few more tiles and the ground cover adding to the banks.
I'm really sorry for the lack of photography updates this week, I had planned to do them at the start of the week, but I was bedridden Monday/Tuesday with Covid recov...
Hi Guys!
Just a quick update to keep you going - I've managed to finish making and baking the bulk of the lava tiles, only the middle tiles left to go (as they require 3d printed bits...see below!)
What you can see in the pictures here are the modular banks and rocky areas that you can add to any tile to give vi...
Hi Guys!
So before I got started this week I thought I'd drop some preview pictures of what the Lava effects now look like using the new texture, crackle effect etc once painted :)
The new crackle technique worked REALLY well combined with the lighting, it lets you see tiny cracks that would be near invisible to ...
Just a reminder for anyone who wants to check it out/missed out last time when it was on a weekday night!
I'll be opening up the voice channel from 7pm ish gmt :)
Hi Guys :)
So I've had a few good/better days, and managed to get a hefty chunk of experimenting done!
Before I get to the Lava I just wanted to mention I'll be running another Discord paint party now I think I'll feel up to it, this Saturday evening at 7pm (GMT, so afternoon for the Americas - Ye...

2022-03-07 21:01:35 +0000 UTC View PostHi Guys,
I've started to be able to get some admin work done when I've had good moments here and there mid covid-fatigue...yeah I can't help myself. I hate not working on something!
I know a few of you mentioned wanting a way to find the right points in the video, and now hopefully you have it! I usually do this...
Hi Guys!
Progress continues slowly on the Lava tiles, mainly due to Covid fatigue. I seriously hate this, but I am continuing as fast as I can without making it worse, update on that at the bottom :/
In these photos you can see the little rocky outcrops I've designed from plaster rocks and clay that will be magn...
I've had a few people ask so I thought I'd announce - the paint party on discord was a great success and will definitely happen again :)
Pi_Paints (a patron) was also kind enough to pull together this spreadsheet of tile dimensions that you guys can use to keep track of your own collection, how much of each you want to ...
