Of the many sets I bought by now the one I fell in love with first was Gothic Realms and the modular sewer system of Missing Persons ... it was a hard decision but in the end I decided on the yellow one to create a magical waste dump situated underneath the castle of an evil sorcerer ... well, something of that sort ...

The sewer is not as extensive as those of Missing Persons but then one can always recycle pieces once they are passed plus this little sewer was only to get into the mood ...

actually the players had to find the tree trunk to use as a raft in the dark water room ... as addition they had to persuade the giant with honey drops (don't ask ...) to come with them and fight the snake ... I was surprised that the players did a really good job in not vanquishing the giant and solving the puzzle ...

Btw. I tried to give the snake a true 3D shape ... a bit fiddly but it worked nicely after mirroring all parts and gluing them back to back. Then the paper could be shaped while the glue was still wet. The same was done with the arms of the giant.

The dark water room was created with the seamless dark water tile from Something Below. The walls were 7 inch walls from Gothic Realms. Allowing the water to reach "up" the walls gives the impression that the room is much larger than the standard 7 inch of the modular system ...

Well done! The whole thing looks very nice.

What is this beastie and where can I get one?

I agree, great work. The snake has a very good effect. But I especially like the snake's room. Those walls are great. The water effect does seem to make the room much wider.

Is it a photoshop effect? Or are the pillars actually a 2nd layer thats on top of the walls?

I agree with LD2062.I like much the room of the dark water. The serpent and the beast also seem fantastic. Today must be my day of luck, I was thinking of doing Gotic Realm and you show me an example " not official " about the system of sewers works. Great work and thank you very much! (more pictures?... )

I could tell the grating had been cut out. They do look very nice though. And its much more reasonable to cut them out then the mesh of cargo hold mesh of the maiden.


I really like the water walls. I will definitely include them in any gothic realms layout I do. But someone should really experiment with the effect in photoshop. Even enhance it. Use some perspective tricks to give the illusion that the water goes back much further and have more columns in the background too. Like there is a vast stretch of water that has been completely covered by some structure.
