SCOOBY DOO AND THE MYSTERY OF THE MESMERISING MANSION
It's astounding, Time is fleeting, Madness takes its toll ...
Wish I could do the time warp, I basically have 2 full days and a bit to get as much finished as I can, 3 rooms, doors and furniture. So far the rooms have taken a day each to complete – drying time being the the biggest issue, so time to get smart….
Anyway the dice throw gave me a 5 so it’s off to the study. I checked on some reference pictures of Victorian studies and decided that this room needed bookcases and a fireplace as permanent features. This I did by carving and impressions in the foam of one of the walls. The other 3 I kept fairly simple, wooden panels on the lower part and a simple pattern on the top section.
The floor of this room is wooden planks on the diagonal, made in the same way as I did the wooden tiles, then marked out with a fine liner for the grid.
After glueing the planks down and trimming them to size I heavily dry brushed some light skin tone across the floor to give some light patterns (maybe went a bit too heavy). This was then all brushed with a couple of coats of black wash.
I had decided that this room would be a monochrome design to give it a noir-ish feel.
I picked out some of the books on the shelves with the skin tone, white, back and grey to make them stand out a bit more before applying the wash to all the walls, going a bit darker on the lower, wooden panelled portion of the other 3 walls.
And all put together. Same as the previous room I will mod podge the outsides at a later date.
I threw a 3 so the Library is next which just leaves me with the dinning room and about 8 sets of doors to complete. I had hoped to make a bit more ‘set dressing’ but that may come after the end of the Dungeonalia.
