Big Picture : Harpy Encounter

This was a picture taken during the D&D Campaign I ran a couple of years ago. I went to great lengths to ensure that every key location had a detailed floor plan and props. Looking back it's clear this was probably far too much effort for a game that is supposed to be more about imagination and roleplaying than models and scenery... but it did look damned good!


Here my players characters encounter a Harpy in a tense encounter.

  1. As a player from your game the extra effort was always appreciated, it looked good, it help the game focus and it was much nicer than tossing fish heads at us. :)

  5. The way I look at the picture one of the figure has a forum while the other ones are listening.

    Great painted figures!

  6. I preferred that way of role-play games... I viewed it more as a detail rich skirmish game. I feel rather out of my comfort zone with some RPG groups who are rather more 'wannabe actors with accents..' Looks great, well done.

Thank you for leaving a comment. I always try to reply as soon as I can, so why not pop back later and continue the conversation. In the meantime, keep rolling high!
