3 new 3D prints: part 3/4: The Corner Hat Shop

Part 2

I had a hat shop in the past, but it was too big for my liking, the displays were not fancy and I needed the hats to posh-up Sylvanians, heheheh. But since, I have a 3D printer ...

Sylvanian designers did not include greys in their Town. I guess they just figured that kids mostly like candy colors. I beg to differ if it is done in an appealing way. Candy colors are nice, but even as a kid, I liked a lot more than those. I used all leftover grey filaments I had left to make the greys stylish instead of dull. So, here it is, my Corner Hat Shop! See my cute misprint squirrel leaving the shop!

I took pics of the floor detail before it was assembled, as this might not be really visible after. I used the same floor pattern as the newspaper shop.

I created a counter and furniture as well. Here are the hat stands before the dummy heads were put on. 

Fun fact: the dome design is made from an Easter egg model, and I used the egg model to create the dummy hat heads as well, lol! As you can see, they represent a few basic Sylvanian heads.

Some more pics to show each detail, before the shop was staged properly.  Some hats are actually 3D printed and embellishments were added. 




And now, after 2 customers entered the shop, more pics! I hope you enjoy this idea!

    Great work! I agree that plainer colours can look stylish; colourful trimming or accessories adding a touch of brightness.

    The grey is very sophisticated and elegant! I love your hat shop!

Angelina Ballerina Sylvanians: origins.

Image
Again, a compilation about a series of blogs I made about this topic, after extensive research, compiled to offer relevant data only, and improved it even a bit. I split all the data over 2 blogs. I discovered the Angelina series in 2021 after I already collected a lot of Sylvanian Families and fell in love with them instantly. You can see the likeness to Sylvanian, but they are not real ones. Yet, they do are related indeed, as you will find out! T his is blog will deep dive into the origins, the next blog about my crafting. Flair (UK toy company since 1999) took over the production of Sylvanian Families in the UK in 1999/2000. Up to then, Epoch only produced Sylvanian Families in Japan. In 2013, Flair transferred the rights for the UK toys to Epoch UK. Flair released the Angelina Ballerina sets starting from 2003, yet claims to have no more info on the series, after contacting them. Through the help of some members of the Sylvanian forum, and lots of online research, I gathered more ...

New 3D printer!

Image
I am in no way sponsored for any reviews. This is just my personal experience. My first 2 brands of 3D printers failed because of power failures in our village. Should not have happened, as printers are made to deal with those. Both Elegoo and Creality had an non-existing helpdesk and glad that Amazon refunded me. I was fed up and decided to buy an expensive printer which was extremely popular in print farms. In the 2 years that I had it, their helpdesk does exist, but was really usless to fix issues. They shipped parts to replace, then had the printed shipped back, and didn't fix it properly. It only printed so-so. I contacted their helpdesk again when all printing failed again and was actually THREATENED by email!!   At that point, it was clear that I would never buy a Prusa ever again.  I found out recently that I am not the only one who they did that to!! I told hub that there was only one thing left to before tossing it out to the garbage, which was to completely rep...

Town Hall

Image
I always study the "maps" which can be found on Sylvanian boxes, as they indicate ideas of possible future releases. On one map of a few years ago, I saw a large building, which sortoff made me wonder if that was meant as a Town Hall. In contrary to the usual pale buildings, this one was again more like the 80ties style in darker wooden colors. I liked the entire concept. Anyway, my hopes for it to become released have dwindled over the years. I created a help center, but it was too small for what needed to go inside, I wanted to move them into a decent sized building. Now that I have a fast new 3D printer, I figured that it was time to create one of my own and I wanted to keep the concept a bit of what I saw on the Sylvanian map.  Here's the front. I bought a cheap Parisian non- printable 3D model building a while back, without a rooftop. I also discovered a free mansarde roof. Both models needed a bit of work to improve them so they could be printed. Both were the tradi...
