You missed out Worldworks cardstock PDF buildings, they have modular sky scrapers and the usual urban apartments etc...

http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/index.php?view=catalog&cat_id=1&genre_id=2Very good infact if done well can sway those printed scenery haters, (used extensively in my urban zombie gaming thread in future wars, go take a look if you're interested).

I highly recommend the Fenris laser cutter service, it's outstanding especially for all the highly repetitive details which some pieces need.

Also if you're looking for British styled buildings there's scalescene.


These are paper kits, some pieces of it have to be mounted on various card stock and they have interiors. They're designed to be for OO railway scale so for 28mm I've had them output on A3 (150%) and they're lovely.

Scalescenes stuff is nice but a little over complicated for our purposes. Also I've found the A3 enlargement works best to actually 134% from OO (lots of issues with staples over my zombie building prints).

It might be worth including examples of Plasticville and Ameritown buildings as well, although one has to acquire them from secondary sources (eBay, etc.). Also the Old Glory resin buildings.

Victorian style buildings from Micro Art... interesting, though I fear they'll be too much for my wallet  :(

I think I have some of the TVAG-pdf buildings for 'GoNY'-style games (I don't remember - never got around to building any of my TVAG-stuff), and may have to settle for that option, anyway.

But a nice compilation of options, here, should I strike the big win one day  ;)

I like a lot of room for my figures hence the extra leap, that also gets them in scale to my builds. Where do the staples come into it though?

Demo's Laser Cut Designs is a relative newcomer, run by the same guy who maintains Cyborg Trucker's Blog. Might be worth checking out.

Oh the chimp staffed warehouse. I use a decent printshop so email the pdfs, pick them up later that day. I did wonder how you got staples in a pdf...  :)

K-line is another railroad source for inexpensive buildings. 

I can't afford the wargaming models and I hate paper so railroad stores for me!

I've come across these guys recently:

http://demoslasercutdesigns.blogspot.com/

The website is a little rough, but the buildings are fantastic for the price, and lot of new stuff coming out. The 4-pack of shops is on my short list for terrain buys.
