...So I was noodling around with the above image as preliminary work for a piece of Middle Kingdoms concept art that's going to illustrate a chapter-heading rubric from The Door Into Sunset. And while working on it, I belatedly realized that to correctly set up that scene, I was first going to have to tear up the entire left-hand side of the image (and the space beyond it), because the new covered fish market I had in mind wasn't going to fit in the space.
So I rolled my eyes at myself (I should have seen this coming...), got busy tearing it up, and then built the fish market. It's very loosely based, as I think I mentioned somewhere here earlier, on the famous Vismarkt, the covered fishmarket in the center of Brugge in Belgium (a.k.a. Bruges). (Image via Carto.net.)
Tumblr media
Back in medieval times, right through to the Renaissance and beyond, fish was originally sold in Bruges in the open, from wooden pallets. But other stallholders in the main market complained about the smell, and the fish-sellers themselves weren't happy with the venue: selling such perishable goods out in the broad (and often hot) daylight was suboptimal. A permanent, covered place for the fishmongers' stalls makes more sense. Yet at the same time, you want decent light on what you're selling or buying... just not direct sun.
Choosing the architecture for a market like this in Darthis city was also going to be an issue. The Vismarkt was installed in a new dedicated market square in 1821, with the architect opting for a Victorian-cum-Classical look: not something that would make sense in this alternate Earth—if I was seriously considering a straightforward copy, which I wasn't. However, the Darthene architectural aesthetic does contain both building styles very like our Romanesque style, and elements similarly reminiscent of Gothic. (Though in the Middle Kingdoms the AU-Romanesque wasn't abandoned when the kinda-Gothic came in, but coexists with it).
After I'd given the situation some thought, I found myself wanting something that drew on those two traditions... or would maybe kind of split the difference between them: a building open on all sides that would be relatively light and airy, recalling a tent or canopy. This kind of design's unquestionably made a lot easier in that universe by the availability of magic-workers able to pull stone out of the ground without excavation, and also able to fashion it into the desired shapes without the use of physical tools. So finally I settled on a broad, vaguely Gothic-styled cross or groined vault as the preferred shape for the roofs: then rummaged around to see what I could find in the local toolkit that would enable me to build it.

(Please note that all of these images are the result of the digital version of kitbashing, as I don’t currently have anything like the skills to create shapes like these in Blender.)
Better lighting in this case is fortunately a materials-technology issue, long since solved on our own Earth. The stone of the roof segments is what architects now would refer to as an "alabastrite marble", about an inch thick—light enough to need relatively little in the way of external supports, and thin enough to transmit light readily. This marble's name comes (probably obviously enough) from alabaster, which has been used on and off in European church windows since medieval times as an affordable alternative to glass, in times and places where that’s been expensive.
This approach has had occasional revivals in modern our-Earth architecture. However, since alabaster is only useful in relatively small pieces, and is vulnerable to heat and moisture, it's often replaced by thin-cut marble set in metal frameworks. One good example of this would be the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale. (image via Amusing Planet)
Tumblr media
The thin-cut Vermont marble transmits light safely without endangering the documents. But sometimes genuine alabaster has been used, too: the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles features tens of thousands of panes of it. (image via Expedia)
Tumblr media
The equivalent use of marble in the royal Arlene library rr'Virendir, in Prydon city—replacing much ancient glass destroyed during the earthquakes accompanying the last battle of the Great War—is probably where the Darthene authorities got the idea for this implementation. And since the marble used in this construction would almost certainly have come from Arlen, light-colored marble being the country’s “vernacular" stone due to it being quarried all over the place there, it makes perfect sense for this marble to have been a gift of the Arlene Throne to the city of Darthis. And would also account for the presence of his grace the King over there by the market stall up against the wall, pretending to check out the produce while he also checks out the nearly-finished construction (and, idly, two of his spouses).
Tumblr media
The Queen is after all very picky about making sure her contractors are getting things right. Yes, she jokes a lot about having lots of room in the dungeons if things go wrong... but sometimes, if you don't know her, it's hard to be sure she's joking.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, so far, it doesn't look too bad.
Things learned over the past couple of weeks, in between also doing other work:
Translucence is a bitch to master in Daz Studio
Certain aspects of Blender are conspiring with one another to make me scream
My rendering computer is displaying a tendency toward quirkiness in the memory department that would register as nearly endearing if I could figure out what was causing it
...But at least now that the set I need is pretty much done (except for some minor tightening, straightening, and tweaking of materials and color temperatures), I can turn my attention to the question of how to produce the rather specialized VFX required for the two shot I'm setting up. ...Yeah, all this work has been for a two shot. But that shot needs people in the background, and the right street furniture. And nature abhors an undressed set. ...See also: "the backs of the melons."
Next challenge: track down a source for heaps of digitized prawns. :)

OJT EATS | Sankaku Market, Otaru
Tumblr media
During our trip to Hokkaido, we took the opportunity to jump on a train and take a day trip out to a small town called Otaru. Our main aim was to check out a small snow festival but we'd also heard of a seafood market called Sankaku Market, or Triangle Market where you can apparently get these great sushi bowls so off we went!
Tumblr media
It was only a short 5 minute walk from the station and by the time we got there, there were pretty massive queues at nearly all the stores so we dutifully joined one and started salivating over the menu.
Tumblr media
We started off with their daily special which was a sashimi. I have to admit, we don't really remember exactly what fish this was (and can't quite tell from the impressive, if not slightly creepy, head). The flavour was mild but it was super fresh, delicious!
Tumblr media
Then the sushi bowls came with a side of miso soup. Just look at all of that uni, ikura and crab! It's pretty rare to see quite that generous a bowl without an outrageous price tag, especially in the UK. The seafood was amazing and those 3 toppings are amongst our favourite so this was up there as one of my favourite bowls!
Tumblr media
The other bowl we had was just all ikura and crab. This was just more of a good thing and went down very quickly!
Tumblr media
This was a pretty simple meal but absolutely delicious. The freshness of the seafood, the amount of it and the fact that they were all of our favourite types made this meal a definite highlight of our trip!
If you ever find yourself in Otaru, we'd definitely recommend a meal in Sankaku Market!
Sankaku Market, Otaru, 3 Chome-10-16 Inaho, Otaru, Hokkaido 047-0032, Japan
Cheers, JL

Norway - Stroll trough Bergen
It’s maybe one of the most famous town in Norway: Bergen. A pretty busy place, where many cruise ships stops. Famous not only for the fish market, but also for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bryggen. I extend my stroll bit around town, just to get some more impressions before i left it again.

Fish Market.
We all think Fish Market as messy place but when a beautiful girl is selling fish there, the messy place can feel like heaven. The story is that you have gone on a Europe Holiday let's say Rome and you decide to visit local fish market. There you find a beautiful girl selling fish. You go to her to know her more and of course purchase her fish. But the young woman wants to play some game with you. Are you ready for it.
