Welcome to Soaring Raven's Roost - our home away from home! Thanks a lot to Eric for providing us with this nest. We'd like to showcase some of our paper models here and share some of the things we've designed with you. This is very exiting and we hope you'll enjoy the stay on our subboard. As a welcoming gift we'd like to show you our kitbash of Mystic Mountain's bakery and baker's house. We had considered this as our kitbash entry for the 2016 Papercuts. The model has that unique roof design that's typical for Jerry Jensen's style. We decided to kitbash interiors for the building to use it as a bakery and cafe location in a Changeling the Dreaming campaign set in modern London, but it also works well in a typical fantasy setting. So, here we go:
Should you want to build a similar kitbash it's actually not too hard. Just print off the exterior walls again and use them for the interior walls. You can use our models for the furniture. Not included in the files are the sacks of flour since they came from Lord ZseZse's Elven Mill set. Also not included is the box of flowers that can be seen in the window niche in the cafe area - that's a model used in toy railway modeling and not a papercraft piece. Here's the furniture files for the bakery: Bakery FurnitureBakery Interior Stone FloorsCafe Furniture - ChairsCafe Furniture - Tables

That's very nice. Not too modern.
Thanks

where is the stone oven from? It's my own design. I had a couple of other things on the same page that were not of my own design, that's why I didn't add it to the downloads above. Would you like to have it? I can easily pull out the old files and chuck out the parts that aren't mine, if you want it. Just let me know.

That oven would be very useful, I think

Some reason you aren't entering it this year? You didn't have to build it this year to be a submission.

Some reason you aren't entering it this year? You didn't have to build it this year to be a submission. We're still working on something that we're even more exited about. I just hope we'll finish in time. But thanks for reminding me, oldschooldm!

Your work is great, but your kits can be a little confusing. Adding some symbols to differentiate mountain and valley folds would be helpful, especially on the market stall. It took me several minutes to figure out the shelf part at the front. I'd also like to know where you got the fish for the example in the photos. I'd like to build a fishmonger's stand myself.

I'm sorry for confusing you. I don't like using different symbols or even different colored lines for the folds on my models as I personally find them to be more confusing than clarifying. I try illustrating my instructions with photos of the individual steps showing the work in progress as those are most helpful to me. Different people like different approaches I guess. I'd be quite happy to provide additional explanations should you need them, but your post seems to indicate that you figured it out yourself.
As far as I recall I took some pictures of foodstuff displays at a local market hall in my hometown a while back. I suppose that's what I used for the fish and the contents of the other crates. I can't find the pictures any more, but I had a harddrive crash recently, so it's quite possible that the originals I used to work from are gone for good. Thankfully I had my finished models backed up, but I lost quite a bit of raw material and textures I created from photos I took in historic buildings over the years. A well, can't be helped now. The most aggravating loss from that crash were several hundred pictures of historic windows, doors, arches and masonry I took on trips to York in England and Salzburg in Austria - that's really annoying!
