Bays

BAY BOLETE
The Bay Bolete has a chestnut-brown cap, which is hemispherical in young fruiting bodies, while in older fruiting bodies the cap is arched to flat. The tubes and pores are yellow to greenish in colour. The spine is usually slender and cylindrical, light brown in colour, and marbled on the surface. The flesh is white, may be yellowish or brownish in places and, if disturbed, may turn slightly blue in some places. The Bay Bolete is a very tasty edible mushroom. It grows abundantly singly or in groups in coniferous forests, mainly under spruce or pine trees, but can also be found under some deciduous trees such as beeches or oaks.
The models of the Bay Bolete show adult fruiting bodies. After printing, the model should be coloured externally with a suitable shade of brown and the flesh should be lightly blued. To represent the tubes, it is advisable to use a thin slice of a yellow dish sponge, which should be trimmed with scissors into a suitable shape and glued with a hot glue gun to the underside of the hat. Finally, it is a good idea to trim the overlapping edges of the sponge by cutting them off.
PENNY BUN
The Penny Bun has a pale and hemispherical cap when young, later brown and arched. There are often various bumps on the surface of the cap. Underneath the cap are the tubes, which are white in young fruiting bodies and yellow to green in older fruiting bodies. The spine is white and ventral when young, club-shaped, brownish at the top, and brownish white towards the bottom when mature. The surface of the stipe has a white or pale net. The flesh is white and does not discolour when disturbed. The Penny Bun is an edible, tasty, and widely sought-after species by mushroom pickers. It grows singly and in groups and can be found in spruce forests as well as under other trees such as pines, oaks, beeches, and others.
The models of the Penny Bun show adult fruiting bodies. After printing, the model's cap should be painted brown and the spine white and light brown. To represent the tubes, it is advisable to use a thin slice of yellow dish sponge, which should be trimmed with scissors into a suitable shape and glued with a hot glue gun to the underside of the hat. Finally, it is a good idea to trim the overlapping edges of the sponge by cutting them off.
DEVIL´S BOLETE
The Devil´s Bolete has a hemispherical, later arched cap, cream or grey in colour, which is irregularly wrinkled. The mouths of the yellow tubes form pores, which are also yellow in the young fruiting body, but turn red as the fruiting body develops. The spine is ventral, later club-shaped, and the colour changes from yellow to red from the cap downwards. A fine net of yellow or red may be present on the upper surface of the stipe. The flesh turns blue when disturbed. Satan mushroom is slightly poisonous when raw. However, if cooked well, it is not harmful to health. It is found in deciduous forests, mainly under oaks, hornbeams, or beeches, singly or in groups. Its occurrence is rather rare, growing at lower altitudes on limestone and other basic substrates.
The models of the Devil´s Bolete depict adult fruiting bodies. In the post-processing, the cap should be painted light grey, and the stipe should be painted from yellow to dark red. The flesh should show the bluing. A thin slice of red dish sponge can be used to represent the tubes, which can be shaped with scissors and glued with a hot glue gun to the underside of the hat. Finally, it is a good idea to trim the overlapping edges of the sponge by cutting them off.
