FROSTGRAVE

When it was first released Frostgrave didn't really catch my attention, but with the start of the current NickStarter campaign at North Star Miniatures for the first Frostgrave supplement 'Thaw of the Lich Lord', I thought I'd take the plunge. I can see the game appealing to both my girls who enjoy dungeon style games, and the can even paint up their own wizards.

So while I'm waiting for the delivery of my 'Thaw of the Lich Lord' goodies,  I've been on the look out for suitable terrain, and as Halloween is nearly upon us I've been searching the local shops for suitable items I can use.

At my local ASDA store I found a skeleton hand candle holder, immediately I thought giant plinth with a statue in the place of the candle. Might leave as it is or paint grey (still undecided).

A giant plastic Wizard off eBay, I plan to paint as a giant statue.

I also picked up some nice crystals from The Dice Bag Lady, excellent service and purveyor of many fine and interesting items to boot. Not pictured, I also picked up some of the female warriors and female head sets (for converting the Frostgrave plastics into female warbands for the girls).

Finally I got some inexpensive snow covered trees off eBay, nice enough and should add another clump of terrain to the table.

I've included a 28mm figure in some of the photos for scale.

    1. Thanks, pleased with my find. To be honest most of the Halloween stuff has been poor from a modelling point of view! Very inconsiderate of them.
