3D model history
Meriadoc Brandybuck, known as Merry, is the character from the Middle-earth legendarium who participates in the Quest to destroy the One Ring, helps to defeat Witch-king of Angmar, and simply has fun together with his inseparable friend Pippin. We are delighted to welcome the cheerful and brave Master of Buckland to join our The Lord of the Ringsselection! Being a true LotR fan, the author of the 3D printer model kept his word and prepared a friendly hobbit for 3D printing to accompany Treebeard in its Last March of the Ents. Even more so!
The 3D artist behind the Merry Brandybuck model reportedly spent circa 150 hours in order for the loyal hobbit to be featured in two scenarios at the least! Thus, the Meriadoc 3D model can be displayed either standing still on a small decorative platform or sitting on top of Treebeard’s branches. The member of the Fellowship of the Ring is depicted with careful attention both to the peculiarities of hobbits’ appearance and their customary clothes. Merry model is barefooted, his longishhairstyle is naturally curly and the look on his face is rather concerned. The latter is quite understandable - after all, Merry, his dear friend Pippin and the Shepherd of the Trees are on their way to fight the Orcs of Isengard! Just like most hobbits do, Meriadoc Brandybuck 3D print wears breeches, a waistcoat, a jacket, and a cloak with a large hood. The cloak is fastened with a brooch known as the Leave of Lorien which is the distinctive symbol worn by all members of the Fellowship of the Ring. The cheerful star of the LotR trilogy is a caring and resourceful hobbit who knows everything needed about the second breakfast! We can’t think of a more joyful addition to your J.R.R. Tolkien-inspired 3D printing design collection!
