Sneak Peek: BIG upcoming papercraft project!
Added 2021-03-15 16:56:21 +0000 UTCHello Secret Door club!
We're here to show you what we're working on for this month's quest pack: A MASSIVE PAPERCRAFT GALLEON!
The Stars of the Sea campaign includes lots of opportunities for sea travel, and we want players to be able to set sail in style.
It has taken a few attempts to get the shape of the buildable ship right. We wanted it to have an impressive look, but still be simple & straightforward to build - something that we think is very important for all our papercraft designs.
The first version looked like this:
The shape of the ship isn't quite right yet, it's too small, and the bow was not structurally sound enough to support it's own weight.
The second version looked like this, and fixed most of the problems of the first:
The bow was still a little too small, and the ship needed some details like the cannons and railings. The pieces were refined further, and this is what Rose came up with:
Pictured here is a row boat that will also be included, and helps illustrate the scale: the rowboat is 2x6 1-inch squares big...
We also wanted to give folks the opportunity to play inside the cabins and hull of the ship, so Rose made the ship in 4 pieces that are detachable:
We hope this ship will make a great centrepiece for future games at the table, and be the setting for some epic nautical showdowns!
