I 3D printed this tower some time in 2024, but circumstances have prevented me from getting many photographs of much of the bits I've been printing since 2023. Unfortunately I can't find where I got the file from for this one. I think it might have been designed for Star Wars Legion, and I rescaled it to about 50-60% original size.
The tower printed in 2 sections, plus the roof piece. I also printed a set of antennae to add some interest to the top of the roof.
The tower has lots of panel detail plus a few pipes, hatches etc. There is a floor in the top where your sentry can stand to keep watch.
Base colour was white masonry paint. The doors are Wilko Bumblebee yellow emulsion wall paint. I sponged on lots of burnt umber and burnt sienna for the rust effects, plus a few rust streaks and a couple of little clumps of grass to add to the battered, weathered appearance.
The communications antennae are just glued straight on the top of the roof.
Rescaled as it is, the internal floor makes it just the right height for a 15mm figure to peer out.
There is no internal detail other than the lookout at the top, so it's mainly just a piece of LOS and movement blocking terrain, or maybe a potential objective marker, but it was a quick and easy print and looks good on the table. What else can you ask?
