BFRPG GM Screen
Posted: Sat Dec 24, 2016 10:43 pm
I made this for my son's Christmas present. He has asked me to teach him how to be a GM.
I almost changed my mind when I saw how cool it was turning out. But I guess I can still use it from time to time. I was going to make the towers into dice towers, but I ran out of time.
Towers are from Michael's, the screen is just a flat piece of plywood crenelated on the top and cut to fit into the battlements. Painted a nice stone look (spray from Wal-Mart), and the Scott Abraham's GM Screen cut and pasted onto a foam poster board. The thought is that he can make a new poster board screen for each game he wants to play without being stuck with just the Basic Fantasy one on the screen board. Total cost was like 15 bucks minus the paint, which took two cans at 7 bucks each, but really it looks way cooler painted than it did as just plain wood.
The only additional future items will be a castle door with some shuttered windows on the players side to break up the flat grey wall.
