Matakishi's Tea House
A simple little site...
The Tavern
All good adventures start in the Tavern, don't they?
The following photos show some of the resin scenery that graces my RPG taverns. Most of it comes from Grendel and was painted between 1995 and 1997.
The welcoming tavern doors. The one on the left is an older Fantasy Forge one, the other is a Grendel piece. The right hand door was painted by Simon Webb.
The inside views of the doors.
The barman of the Green Griffon.
Some of the patrons.
The snug.
The banqueting table.
The kitchen.
The Public bar. Furnished in an earlier style with items from Fantasy Forge. The customers and their tables are from the Drum.
Tavern Beds. Painted by Johnny, not me.
The Dungeon
A variety of items, again mostly from Grendel.
The actual dungeon.
A cell bed and a sewer entrance.
The entrance to the crypt.
A mausoleum wall and a couple of sarcophagi. Someone wants whatever's in the black one to stay there.
The entrance to the Temple of Set.
Inside the Temple lurks its guardian.
A Wizard's mirror.
A Wizard's study. His shelves and desk are from Fantasy Forge.
A close up of the shelves.
The Black Goblin Gate. This was originally a Fantasy Forge piece.
The evil skull throne from the Drum.
An Aztec doorway.
The entrance to a Dwarven mine and a sinister obelisk.
The Elemental Gate to the Underworld flanked by some strange Fantasy Forge creations.
Four Elemental orbs.
Some Fantasy Forge torture equipment painted by my wife Frances.
A couple of windows and an ancient magical Dwarven doorway.
Peter's Dungeon Accessories
All these pieces were made by a chap called Peter, I don't know his last name, we called him D&D Peter. They're cast in resin and are pretty unique since I don't think he's ever sold them. There are more than I've got here but I haven't painted them yet, I've only had them nine years, what's the rush?
A skull wall.
Some archways.
Two elemental portals, Earth and Fire. I've used holographic paper for the portal effects.
Out and About
Not all adventures happen underground.
Some fungi painted by Simon Webb.
A boat to take the characters across the Lake of Fire to the City of Brass where Djinn, the Elemental Lord of Fire lives.
A small boat and jetty.
A little bridge.
A bigger bridge made of bone and a skull cave.
