Merchant and Market

Hi all this is another stunning piece from printable scenery called Merchants and Market you can visit their site at www.printablescenery.com. I know this piece has been around for a while now but it’s still one of my favourites, probably because I like the busy market idea for a fantasy medieval feel to a game setting and this building with its shaded over hang gives me a whole lot of inspiration.

I am looking forward to crowding the model with market stalls, fruit carts and a whole bunch of townsfolk when my resin printer arrives, as I have found printing these more delicate items do not turn out as nice on a PLA printer.

The Merchants and Market pack comes complete with building, barrels, sacks and baskets. It also contains a solid version that will be useful for scaling and printing out at 33% (10mm scale).

The 6.2 update has had significant remodelling of textures applied to most parts of the building in line with new and refined 3D modelling techniques, but the original version is still available in the legacy folder when downloaded.

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 have printed this piece on our Ender 3 using eSUN PLA+ Filament plastic for use in Frostgrave and DnD.

I painted the Winterdale Merchant in October of 2019 using Monte Morte paint range and Citadel lead belcher. I have primed this piece 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 windows and door, for the reverts I used citadel lead belcher. I have used an Army Painter cream for the render.

I am currently 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.
