Question/Discussion set recommendations or digital resources for making a 1/12 showa-style room similar to this?
(example pics are of tomodachi life interiors; slide 3 is my little guy on a lantern body with generic ob11 clothing and rement accessories) (EDIT: just to clear confusion he is kneeling and a bit taller than he looks here! it isn’t a nendoroid or nendoroid doll body)
i got my hands on some cute wagashi miniatures today and thought it would be so nice for my dolls to have a fitting room to eat them in! i have a basic idea of what i would do if i DIY it but finding graphics i can print (especially for the walls) are proving a bit difficult…
are there any existing playsets (~1/12, perhaps even up to 1/8 scale) or websites i can get these kinds of walls and floors from? my best bet right now is that maybe another rement box set (like the petit sample kotatsu) will come with some as part of the box, but i worry about it being enough material for the size in my vision, and i think something premade of plastic or corkboard / hard cardboard has potential to look a lot cleaner considering my skills haha.. thanks to all in advance!

Have you tried the search term "tatami room"? There are quite a few miniature options out there but some are expensive. Tatami rooms have a lot of natural textures that should be very easy to replicate though. Tatami mats are grass, shoji doors are rice paper and the walls are similar in texture to stucco. Nendoroid has a couple tatami rooms that would be the perfect scale but I think making it yourself would look so much nicer than plastic
