Title: New Build: Africa/Asia/ walled outpost. (Cool)
Post by: Smokeyrone on May 09, 2022, 05:02:35 AM
Just a pretty generic Colonial type station.  Building two roofs (tile and thatch) so it can jump from the Congo to China or the Caribbean.   

Haven't finished the two walls, made them low.  (High walls never get attacked)

Pretty quick build so far.  A rotten Panthers hockey game and a stupid Heat basketball game is what I have into this, time wise.

It's kinda big, 11x11 perimeter, but I wanted interior playability (thus the interior work)

This is a ripoff of the mission on a hill I built for Baumal

Nice job. I look forward to seeing the different roofs in place.

Looking good, Smokey.  Building is generic enough that it can be used for almost any kind of European establishment -- gub'mit building, trading post, farm compound.

Very nice. I wish some company made more colonial type building.
For Africa all I can find are native huts.

You can always scratch build, as per this example.
If that doesn't suit there are people who'll make 'stuff'
(even little old me  :D)

Inkpaduta: besides scratch building, look at existing buildings and thing in terms of 'close enough' and adaptable.  And then do what we call in model railroading a kitbash to get what you want.

Good looking building. I wonder how hot it was inside those buildings?
