Description

Those who have not yet read the Dark Tower-series by Stephen King
has forgotten the face of their fathers.
To celebrate my favourite books and also make en entry in the book nook contest,
here is a Shadow Box Diorama of Roland, on his quest to find the Dark Tower.


With 14 plates of different prints this is kind of a project, but an easy one!

No AMS is needed and everything prints easy. Not much supports anywhere. A bit of glue maybe.
All settings already set in the profile!

There's variable layer heights, concentric top surface patterns and more to ensure a bit
of smootheness when it comes to the sculpted parts.

IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH WALL 2, SELECT IT, PRESS M AND LOWER Z AXIS TO 2.0
ALSO; MAKE SURE VARIABLE LAYER HIGHTS IS ENABLED ON PLATE 1-5! 

This smoothens out the walls of bushes, branches and trees.

 

Alignment: If the model is placed upsidedown on the plate,
that means the downward side is the one preferably used outwards.
This is important for the gunslinger to be aligned properly.
And also for those who know; Roland is left handed at that point. 


All parts have a pretty loose fit, to ensure everyone can print it properly! 

It's powered by either IKEA Kapplake or Bambulab LED Lamp
DISCLAIMER: I do not own the actual Bambulab lamp and thus, can not test the holder.
The cradle is made to the specification of the officiall Lamp Kit 001, and thus should fit.

Assembly is fairly easy, just slide the various plates into the slots and put the lid on top.
Keyhole, wooden panel and fireplates go together in the first slot.
This can be closer observed in the Assembly View



As for the background, there are several options to set the tone of the scene. Here is some examples of mine where I've been experimenting a bit. Since I don't own every filament in existence I had to do with .. less.

1: White background and yellow transparent sun. Daytime setting, maybe a little dawn.
2: White background and blue moon, really don't know what time of day that would be! 
3: Gray background and red moon. The blood moon is rising.. 
3: Gray background and blue moon: Dusk is creeping closer.
5: Light blue background and yellow sun: It's a beautiful day in Mid-world.
I can imagine a wide array of different settings, imagination and access to filaments is the limit! 


Additional stand for standard books (It lacks a bit of hight)
Fits perfectly for pocket books and somewhat bigger, but for paperbacks one can use the stand.
No fastening device, if you want it stuck on there, use glue 👌

 

Introducing a small rose bush that glues onto the Tower plate.
The roses and bush fit together with small outcroppings, fitting onto the stems.

Big thank you to Alfeetoe for the idea and advice.
