Samurai Corner Tower 2 Level Version for Dungeons and Dragons | Warhammer 40k | DND Terrain | DND Miniature | Samurai Terrain Features on sale
What I have of this item currently is two towers that are constructed, which means carefully glued together to join the roof pieces together. The models are designed so that the levels stack upon one another, as does the roof for the top level, so these are removable to access the pieces which are inside. Sort of useful if someone gets a lucky shot with a big weapon, or several arrows kills someone on sale at the window, or the manage to get a fireball in there. In melee things happen, know what I mean?
In any case, they are ready for any degree of painting you want to take them to now. Or you can leave them just primered, and on the outside it gives them a very dark and mysterious look: all black. It is because I have put so much time and effort into putting them together that I charge what I do. There was time and careful effort which went into constructing them as they now are. There are minor pieces of work to perfect them, so expect these, but I do not believe that they detract from the value of the towers, nor the price I am asking for them. I didn't just glue the roof pieces together. I drilled holes into the separate halves, and glued small dowels into place to add strength, which it has.
If you wish to make a purchase, or two, I have two currently which are ready. The description of the towers continues below.
If you love the Japanese Culture and the Samurai era, then you will love this Samurai Corner Tower, which is much like a small fortress in and of itself. Your players will want one just seeing it, and if they have one of their own in your game they'll take great pride in it. Standing just on its own it is very impressive, but when added to a Castle complex it is a defensive bastion protecting the Daimyo's (Warlord's) Main Keep.
You will KNOW that you got your money's worth with this Model.
Above the stonework it consists of two levels from which missile weapons can and were easily be deployed. Bow and arrows, crossbows, and later, muskets were unleashed from such strongholds. Your players' pulses will quicken seeing the models which are designed after authentic Samurai era fortifications. The wood detailing of the interiors lends itself to accurate painting of the models, based upon actual examples used centuries ago.
Even the tiles on the roofs are detailed and lend themselves to accurate representation of actual structures which were refined in many battles. At the bottom level, overhanging the stonework of the lower fortifications, there is a short opening protruding from the first level of actual combat activity, and it allows archers and musketeers to shoot down at any attackers trying to access the stonework of the wall below, without exposing the defenders to much, if any, enemy attack. A brilliant design, Samurai era castles did remarkably well against vigorous assaults in much the same way that European Castles did.
The bottom level, the rock wall part, will readily connect with other wall sections of the same set. I can print these as well and I'll have the listings for those up soon. This structure is considered to have two levels, which begin above the rock fortification section. The windows have battle shutters on them, and in the pictures they are presented with the shutter sticks glued in place. These shutters lift independently for multiple target acquisition by the defending Samurai in either of the tower levels.
Each of the tower levels has a "wooden" floor, and there is a staircase with rails which allows movement between the two levels. Since the Corner Towers are mainly for vigorous activity they have "wooden" floors. This is to say that they are 3D printed in the model, but the actual Towers would've had bare wooden floors, rather than wooden floors covered with Tatami which was the norm for areas where leisure or relaxation would take place.
The model is designed and normally printed at 28mm scale. I can adjust this if desired. Notify me in advance if this is desired and we can discuss it.
This Item is a Samurai Corner Tower designed by 3D Alien Worlds and 3D Printed by ChampionPolyMorphs (Us). The model will be delivered in several pieces. I make every effort to clean off small fibers and imperfections. The top roof, and the lower level roof are each in 2 pieces, which need to be glued or joined together. Currently I have in stock I have items where I have glued the two pieces of each roof portion to its mate, and reinforced this using dowels. I do this because I wish to insure that the two halves of the rooves meet as they should, and that it forms a sound structure. There is a certain amount of craftsmanship which goes into this, but again, I want to make certain that the two pieces of each roof segment meet with the quality I would want to have for myself. If you have any questions about your specific Samurai Corner Tower, then please message me so we may discuss specifics. My intention is to provide the best authentic models that I can, and for you to have a clear idea of what workmanship has already gone into your model, which is based upon authentic designs from the Samurai era, and of what you will need to do be able to primer and paint the model. The pieces are printed in Black or Brown PLA Filament.
This is a high quality model for those who are willing to put in the time and effort necessary to make it worthy of the Samurai Heritage and Japanese Culture. This means an inherent respect for, and appreciation of attention to detail, and the necessary effort to insure respectable quality. Anyone who has studied the martial arts and has worked hard toward a belt, or to perfect a kata, or to live a life of respectful discipline,- and this would include American Soldiers who have learned to respect these values - and even individuals who practice Yoga, or Mastery of even Musical Instruments, can all appreciate the same kind of attention to detail in building Models such as this one.
That said, the model is both beautiful and striking, and your players will be excited at seeing it, especially if they might claim it through adventuring and melee. You will be Pleased at the detail and simplicity of the components themselves, and You will be sure that You got a great value for your money.
