The Watch Tower is from the Kickstarter City of Tarok by Black Scrolls Games. This has been the best kickstarter my husband and I have backed for value for money and the quality of prints are absolutely amazing. The level of detail is outstanding for example the ability to be able to insert clear plastic card between the windows of some buildings and the versatility being able to add and swap in and out parts to make different looks. You can use as many or as little segments to create a tower, small buildings or even addons to other buildings like the city walls. The trap doors and some of the stone staircases are removable.

We have printed the Watch Tower on our Ender 3 using eSUN PLA+ Filament plastic for use in Frostgrave and DnD.

I painted the tower in January of 2020 using the Monte Morte paint range and Citadel Lead Belcher.

This piece has been primed with vehicle primer filler to cover some of the prints layer lines then under coated in flat black. For the wood I have dry brushed in Monte Morte burnt sienna and then dry brushed with yellow ochre. The roof has been painted with Monte Morte Phthalo blue, then dry brushed with Monte Morte Cobalt blue. For the stone I dry brushed with Monte Morte paynes grey first then made a mix of two parts grey and one-part white, dry brushed with this then again made a mix of two parts grey and two parts white and again dry brushed. After that I dry brushed with the Monte Morte titanium white to finish the stone look. The silver is a mix of Monte Morte silver and lamp black on the door, for the reverts I used citadel lead belcher.

I am looking into how to incorporate ways to light up the inside of all my buildings and I still need to do all the weathering and foliage on every print.

The Dice Watch Tower is from the Kickstarter City of Tarok by Black Scrolls Games you can find the dice tower at www.blackscrollsgames.com . This has been the best kickstarter my husband and I have backed for value for money and the quality of prints are absolutely amazing. The level of detail is outstanding for example the ability to be able to insert clear plastic card between the windows of some buildings and the versatility being able to add and swap in and out parts to make different looks.

With this piece you can use as many or as little segments to create a large or small dice tower. You can also put the roof on to use as a tower for terrain.

We have printed the dice tower on our Ender 3 using eSUN PLA+ Filament plastic for use in out table top gaming such as Frostgrave and DnD.

I painted the dice tower in January of 2020 using the Monte Morte paint range and Citadel Lead Belcher.

This piece has been primed with vehicle primer filler to cover some of the prints layer lines then under coated in flat black.

I still need to do the weathering and add foliage.

We purchased the

from Printable Scenery you can find this ship and more at www.printablescenery.com . I am loving the amount of detail on this boat; it is truly a stunning piece.

The Frigate Mk2 comes in two versions: ballista and cannon. Included in the .ZIP file are: separate deck layouts, interior fittings such as barrels and boxes, a removable ‘wake’ that simulates ship movement, cannons, ballista, and rigging clips. The separate decks can be used to simulate movement within the ship.

It is a completely new model compared to the original Frigate, and is designed to be printed in three parts.

This product is delivered as a .ZIP file pack containing STL files for use on a home 3D Printer. The files are set to 28mm scale but can be rescaled before printing.

We still need to add the ropes and sales and I would love to create a pirate based warband, so will be on the hunt for some cool mini’s soon to paint.

The ship has been printed on the Ender 3 using eSUN PLA+ Filament plastic. We have printed the ship to use in Frostgrave, DND and any other medieval RPG and Table top games.

I painted the Frigate MK2 in December of 2019 using the Monte Morte paint range for the wood and Army Painter, Vallejo and Citadel paints for the remaining details.

I have primed this piece with vehicle primer filler to cover some of the prints layer lines then I under coated in flat black spray. I have dry brushed with burnt sienna and then yellow ochre to achieve the wood look. I have dry brushed yellow and white under and around the lamps to create the glow effect, which turned out absolutely amazing. This has been one of my favourite terrain pieces to paint.
