One Pot to Paint Them All, LOTR Water Pot

For the miniature painters, hobbyists, and Tolkien lovers

 

Learning to sculpt in Nomad Sculpt, I custom-designed this paint water pot capable of holding up to four brushes in dedicated slots.

 

The inner pot is divided into two chambers to keep your clean and dirty water separate. Sculpted grooves along the rim let you refine your brush tips with precision, while textured wave patterns at the bottom help lift even the most stubborn pigments off your bristles.

 

The cylindrical body features four distinct faces you can turn at will, each bringing Middle-earth to your workspace:

• Frodo Baggins
• The tormented Gollum, clutching for his precious
• A majestic Elven emblem, elegant and serene
• The menacing Mordor sigil, crowned with the Eye of Sauron

 

Instructions to print:

 

 

I divided the print into 2 plates. The default layer lines is 0.12 to keep details in the ring carvings, but also for the characters on the pot.

The water pot has 3 walls because it will contain fluid.

 

I added modifiers to:

• handle the ironing of the bottom of the ring, 
• to have concentric Top Surface Pattern to have a clean top finish,
• Increase the infill at the bottom of the ring to provide a good plane surface for the ironing.
