Title: Building an apothecary shop
Post by: snitcythedog on January 28, 2022, 02:28:45 PM: I am starting to build an apothecary shop for fantasy settings. This build is from the inside out as I have a mental image of what the interior should look like. It is all mount board covered in stencil paper. The spice drying rack uses lots of coffee stirrers and the plant bundles were made from fine wire and sawdust flock. Lots of 3d printed details as I was using the last of a spool up. The rest of the bits are from a variety of manufactures. All finished off with my craptastic painting skills.
First is the dresser.

Then two shelves

Last is the spice drying rack.

The individual labels is just mechanical pencil. Used the same on the open book. The palette is my usual craptastic subdued. :D

Foamex textured with a scribe for the cracks and crumpled up aluminum foil for the surface.

I completely forgot about that kit! Very good call as that is the level of clutter along the walls that I am looking for.

Thanks for the comp. I am trying to keep construction techniques similar with the rest of the building in the city so I did the floor in the same style. Since this is a shop rather than a temple or public structure I will be changing the colour pallet and most likely adding rugs and papers onto the floors.

True. My biggest complaint about realistic vs practical is scale creep with almost all wargame models. If I was purely building a model I would make it as realistic as possible. As this is to be used for terrain I am not against making it a more robust structure and having items that are out of scale.

Here is where I am stopping for the day. Everything is glued in place but my fat fingers glued to a couple of points and they need touching up. Still have more weathering to do and a couple of other bits and pieces.
More photos on my blog if you are interested.

They are just paper towel set with PVA. Four tips that may help. Do not have your base glued into place when you paint the rugs so you can move it around and access it from all angles. Have a reference image handy when painting. Work from the outside in spacing your design out evenly. Lastly do not get too hung up on mistakes as they will get lost in the design and not be as noticeable.
