Part of Tribes and Patreon August 2024 release. https://www.patreon.com/makingtlon
This set is part of the Moose Rest Taphouse bundle.
This building was designed with a lot of overhangs, balconies and other options that where missing from previous releases. They are compatible with other OpenLOCK buildings I released, although textures are always getting updated for a greater quality (and these are very high detail!).
The taphouse has a ground and an upper level as well as an option for a wall extension (with magnets &/or barbeque skewers) to make the overhangs work in a more stable manner. You can stack as many layers/levels as you want, and the structure shown in the render is, of course, just one of the endless structures (smaller and larger) that you can make with this set. Also, the Wall OpenLOCK tiles come with a split option for playability.
As always, the roofs prove to be the trikiest part to design and to print. On the design side: the roof is the less modular bit (it would be extremely time consuming to make roofs that work with any customized shape of the building below), but there is a partial solution to that issue, which is the kitbashing set coming soon. On the printing side: I put barbeque skewer channels in the beams to make the roofs easier to assemble and more stable, but you'll probably still need a source of heat to bend them to the correct shape depending on how much your resin and prints warp (more on that in the instructions).
Of course, this is not just a taphouse. These tiles can be used to make any medieval building. They can be used to make a guild hall, an artisan workshop, a house (of poor folk if small, rich if large), a constabulary station and so on. If it makes sense made in wood, you can build it with these tiles. I really like the final look of the whole thing, and I can't wait to see what buildings you create with this set!
All the models are test printed and presupported (if needed).
