Hi
I have been fiddling with a foam core model of Castle Blackmoor based upon the First Fantasy Campaign floorplans and Burg Branzoll.

Should the model have a roof like Burg Branzoll or more flat roof with parapets. From what I have read a Burg Branzoll model was the inspiration for Castle Blackmoor but I am leaning toward parapets myself.

This is the first rough test model.

I just noticed this is my first post!!! Hi everyone :mrgreen:

Hello Werdegast!

First of all, welcome to the Comeback Inn! :)

If you have the time later, feel free to introduce yourself in the !

May I also say though, that I just LOVE what you are doing with this model!

Castle Blackmoor was indeed . I don't know what would be best of parapets and a roof. I even tried to create a 3D model where I wanted to combine the features of Bradzoll and the castle depicted on
the cover of the OD&D Supplement II at one point, but I never managed to make it good enough to be worth sharing.

Please post updates on this project!

Have you been making other models as well?

Are you currently running a Blackmoor campaign? :)

Thanks for the encouragement.

I was working on a simple Sketchup model but it is very rough. This is the first foam core and first Sketchup model I have tried.

Earlier in the summer I started DMing for my sons (5 and 9). It was the first time I have played in probably fifteen or sixteen years.

So far we have only been playing some short dungeon crawls.

I have been trying to get my nephews interested but so far no luck.

Is anyone ever ready for Temple of the Frog?
