After cutting out the templates I was ready to start working on the Dungeon walls.
The use of a square and a circle template came in very handy.
As I mentioned in a previous post I wanted additional parts for the walls for texture, reinforcement of the section, and design.
Pictured left is the main wall and the foam core archway, which will be glued on after the carving is done.
What I came up with was an archway that would take away from the straight block pattern and give it more depth. The archway will serve only to be seen on the inner wall of a room of the dungeon. I have not decided about what to do with the corridor side of the wall.
When it came to designing a doorway on a wall section I first thought of the opening to be an archway. The inner part for the door to go against was going to be square cut and the door as well.
This is the side of the wall that would face the corridor of a dungeon as the door would swing inside when opened.
This is what the square cut indent would look from the inside of a dungeon room. The square cut was designed to aid in making a simple straight door.
After comparing the square cut look with the archway for a regular wall, I realized that the two shapes would not look good together.
The square cut template will have to be used for another part of the dungeon, possibly a corridor entry with no door or maybe a grate.
Fortunately, I was able to use the other template to create an additional archway to cut into the wall for the door to go in place.
The archway on the left is only rough cut yet you can see how the shapes will not clash with the final details.
