Fountains

These fountains were a really cool find on Thingiverse, I am planning on printing more fountains and adding other greenery like lilies. The STL file is from Sablebadger, they have lots of great files you can check out on Thingiverse. I have printed these on our Ender 3 using eSUN PLA+ Filament plastic for games of Frostgrave and DnD.

These were probably painted in late September of 2019 using the Monte Morte paint range. I have primed with vehicle primmer filler to cover some of the prints layer lines then under coated in flat black. 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.

To achieve the water effect, I have glued in a thick clear fishing line and covered it in clear two-part epoxy. I then filled the fountain base with the rest of the clear epoxy. I then added some grass tuffs I had hand made into the broken fountain.

There are a few more extra variations to the fountain but they had the water effects in the print whereas I wanted to add a more realistic water look.
