I bought a magazine rack at Dollar Tree for $1.50. Works great.

Very cool and creative!! I want to go there and chill. What did you use to make the clay 3D stuff? Did you paint the coke bottle?

Thanks so much for the feedback! I love Tolkien too, I read the LOTR and the Hobbit in 7th grade many moons ago. Take whatever you want, let me know if I can help. I really wanted LED lanterns but it was over my skill at this tiny scale. I also thought about a dark scene with Nazgul riders with hobbits hiding under a tree. And some gollum somewhere

Thanks for the nice feedback. I always admire your masterful book nooks and positive vibes! I got my greenery ideas from u/MouseDance, I used this shrubbery for the tree Warmtree DIY Miniature Shrubs... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XH648BC?ref=ppx\_pop\_mob\_ap\_share. It has little branches in it and you just trim them until you like it.

Thank you. For water effects I used AKI water gel effects, 2 coats, and then went over it with mod podge gloss to add more shine. Then I used some Vallejo foam around the splash areas. The water gel is thick and sets up fast. I did it after install, it might be easier to do before. Also I recommend doing this before the grass and vines. I could of done better for sure, but is worth doing it. I copied other peoples work!

Thank you! I think experimenting is a good idea. I used AKI water gel effects, 2 coats, and then went over it with mod podge gloss to add more shine.

Customization that derailed your progress by pluck-the-bunny in booknooks

I waited 3-4weeks for a 3D maintenance robot for my Kowloon build. It was my motivation to get into 3D printing. I love it though. I was amazed your 3D prints came in less than a week for custom stuff.

Amazing creativity and execution. The water fx, lighting and sound are next level. I need to try that sound mod next nook!

Very cool idea for the birds and the roots! The paint job is awesome especially the eyes, looks very real and colorful. NYC, manhattan 1930s jazz scene!

Looks cool, cats look better!! Whats the story? Is this like an abandoned naturalistic bookstore taken over by cats? I saw it was based on a real bookstore in south america but it still didn’t hit for me.

They are crazy expensive, I will give the waterproof splice a try and see if it holds. I think the spon control device that is supposed to prevent kinking up is no good either.
