More from Mantic’s Terrain Crate Kickstarter today – a bunch of dungeon “trap” tiles, which would predominantly be used for for roleplaying games like D&D and the like, but also could be used in a few boardgames in place of various card markers. From left to right, we have what I’m calling “blade trap”, “floor spikes”, “bear trap”, “poison gas” and “trap door”. Trapdoor being more of a terrain feature than a trap, but hey – close enough, modelwise anyway.
With the three types that do physical hurties to their victims, after finishing and weathering I left one set plain with a bit of dirty brown, I then added fresh blood to the next using Citadel’s Blood for the Blood God (aka acrylic clear red paint) and then one of each stained with old blood, which I mixed up using Vallejo Model Colour Woodgrain with Vallejo Model Wash Dark Rust for that kinda rusty red-brown colour that old bloodstains become.
The Poison Gas and Trapdoor tiles didn’t have as much variation – just a little crated by the brown dirt weathering powders.
To finish, here’s a simulated “Action Shot” using the Ravenloft D&D board game tiles and showing some adventurers just getting screwed in multiple ways by the damned Adventure cards in that game… by the look of the number of traps and monsters, it’s almost turn two…
And in finishing these I’ve also got another set of 15 tokens that will also count towards Dave Stone’s Winter of Scenery Challenge!
HeroQuest flashback! Nice gore recipe.

Excellent work on your markers mate, great idea doing one clean, one with a fresh kill, and one with an older kill

Cheers Dave – was a kind of last-minute decision to try and make them look a little more distinct from one another.

The blood works great on those bear traps! This is a nice set that you’ve really managed to bring to life.

Thanks Mikko. Anything to make them a little interesting given the number of multiples!
