“We’ve seen their fires in the hills and we know they are soon coming. Let you hammer ring all night forgemaster, for we’ll need every bit of steal when they reach our walls…” The Smitty is the perfect building for your blacksmith in your medieval or fantasy roleplaying and wargaming. The yard works well placed against any existing wall on your gaming table, making it a simple piece to add to any scene. The large open forge is removable and can be placed on its own in your scenario if needed. This set comes with 4 essential smithing items: an anvil, a bellows, a grindstone and a quenching tank. It measures approximately 6"x4.5"x4.75" in the 28mm scale (and 7"x5"x5.5" in 32mm). The item comes in 7 pieces and is unpainted. As with all 3D prints, some finishing may be required. All items are printed in non-toxic PLA filament. Item is printed at a high 0.15mm resolution (and an ultra high 0.1mm resolution for small pieces). Pictured item is at 28mm scale; 32mm is also an option. Custom print resolutions are available upon request.

In part one of this series, I covered the process I used for making the 3' x 3' boards and swamps for this Runewars demo board, commissioned by Fantasy Flight Games. Here are the links to the other parts of this series: Runewars Terrain, Part 1: Swamp Boards Terrain Tutorial: Swamp Grass Runewars Terrain, Part 2: Castle Ruins Runewars Terrain, Part 3: Ruins and Arches Runewars Terrain, Part 4: Painting and the Finished Table The boards match up with each other, and included some modular scenery pieces so they can be used as a pair of small demo boards or as a single large battlefield. With those boards complete, it was time to move on to the centerpiece– a large castle ruin with tower and arches, set above a murky river. Framing Everything Out The first thing I did was build the board for the base, which included a recessed channel for the river. On top of the board, I began cutting chunks of insulation foam to block out the mass of the structures. The main build would consist of a tower at the front and a bridge leading back to a large platform with another half-tower and large arches. Across from this would be a series of platforms representing stairs and walkways that have crumbled away. Large PVC pipe made a sturdy core for the towers, and the bridge arches were drawn out on some foam core board. The Bridge I shaped the foam and attached all the parts for the platforms. The steps were cut out, and I began cutting the stonework into the surface of the foam. The bridge arches were cut out of the foam core and insulation foam was used to form the support walls between the arches. The PVC pipe was covered with foam board to give it a decagonal shape and flat, vertical sides over which I could attach foam. stonework Around the base of the tower, I framed out a platform that connected to the large bridge. The stonework was achieved by cutting the stone pattern into the foam with a hobby knife and then drawing into the cuts with a wood pencil. (I always use pencil because pen can sometimes repel glue or paint, or show through.) After the stonework is drawn in, I press some of the individual stones with my finger or with a pencil eraser to create an uneven surface that will show up when drybrushing the terrain. For the foam board sides of the bridge, I cut thin strips of insulation foam (about 3/16-inch thick) and attached them to the surface of the board. The same process was then used on that foam to apply the stonework. At the far end of the bridge, I built up the large platform with archways that allowed the river the flow underneath. The rocky cliff leading up to the crumbling wall was made using a fork to gouge out the rough surface. The Tower I covered the walls of the tower with long strips of foam, cut to 1/4-inch thick. The top was capped with a piece of one-inch foam. I cut out an archway for a door and attached this to the tower. You can barely see it on the side, but there were windows cut out of the foam, with thick PVC card for the window ledge. For the parapet, I cut 1/2-inch thick segments of foam to go around the perimeter. A portion was cut off the bottom of each, and these were in turn cut with an arch and glued around the tower. The section above had the window cut out of it and was then attached, connected to the bottom section. Next, I cut thick strips of foam and carefully trimmed the gaps between the wall sections so these strips could be inserted. The strips were cut flush with the tip of the parapet wall, and crenelations were cut out. A hatch was constructed with basswood and styrene plastic, and the stonework texture was applied. The final touch was to chip some of the corners and break off a few larger chunks to create a structure that looked like it was crumbling with age. Here's the finished tower, before and after some paint: Coming up, I'll work on the remaining sections of the castle ruin and add some weathering and vegetation.
