Tavern Bed

Posted by

Ah ha! I have some new stuff to post now!

This is one of the beds from Scotia Grendel's 10009 - Tavern Beds set painted up for use in my dungeon setups. I've gathered quite a few tavern furniture pieces and I will probably one day have to run a game set in a tavern so I can use them all at once (a bar brawl scenario maybe?). Because of the quilted square pattern on the bed's … er … quilt, I had originally planned to paint it in the same colours at the bed from the old Citadel Floor-plans Bedroom tile (see below), but due to a combination of a poor short-term memory and leaving my reference material on the opposite side of the room to where I was painting I ended up painting it red and blue rather than red and green. The moral of the story is; never set fire to a unicorn … and keep your reference material to hand while you are painting - come to think of it the 2nd one of those might be the more relevant of the two.

^ The reference material I failed to pay attention to

The bonus picture this time is 2 other tavern beds from the same set I painted quite a while before. This leaves me with just 2 more beds from this set to paint

Lovely stuff. A tavern game does sound like a good laugh. Perhaps with the adventure's starting with their weapons in their rooms and having to fight to them then fight their way out?

That's certainly a possible idea - my plan is to setup a tavern filled with NPCs (Barmaids, the owner, customers, ect) and just let the PCs explore it and do what they want - order drinks, flirt with wenches, get into a fight with another group of adventurers, gamble, rent a room the night, pass out drunk, eat a huge meal or whatever they decide.
Of course I'll have a few encounters setup ready to throw in to keep things interesting - maybe one of the NPCs has a dark secret or perhaps there is more than just rats lurking in the cellar ...
