and a lot simpler... there's no comparation on quality! italieri's, even I don't like this TM, are much better!!! if you want plain buildings like the one that you posted, you can use some cereals boxes... if you look at the other things of gamecraft, they're... not so cheap (but still cheap, I have to admit :) )

Finally a shot of the faced with a Gamecraft town house for comparison. For some of you, this will be old stuff, but I thought these might provide some ideas for conversion?

So what are the miniatures in the pic? 20mm or 28mm?

Like the Gamecraft stuff but how does it scale up to 28mm?

The minis are 20mm AB Figures. I'd say they don't work with 28mm very well?

I reckon it would be ok... the door frame on that looks passable with some minor work maybe... any chance of a pic with a 28mm?

I will see if I have time to sort out a pic with some 28mm figs tonight (don't have any WWII in 28mm though, but something else).

Ok, here's closer shot with Foundry and old GW 28mm figs for comparison



Don't have any 28mm minis on non-slotta bases, sorry.

Yeah, based on those pics the Italeri house is pretty flexible scalewise. Whereas the Gamecraft stuff seems more limited to 20mm. But who knows, if you ask them nicely, they might do them in 28mm too? I think they do stuff for smaller scales than 20mm, so why not larger?

I think the Gamecraft stuff looks OK.
Mount it on a thin base to raise the height a little, cut away the bottom of the front door and loose the slotta base. It would fit fine. A bit basic but it would save you cutting out all those windows if you scratch built it.
I think I noticed that gamecraft had some more detailed fronts than the one shown here?
