Title: Another name that building post :)
Post by: Kikuchiyo on July 03, 2022, 10:46:15 AM
Still trying to hunt down some resin 15mm peninsular war buildings and found these online

Anyone have any idea who makes or made them?

I haven't played 15mm for many years, but they remind me strongly of Hovels 15mm resin Spanish range. Worth a look anyway.

The corner stones make me think they are from somone else and I've searched the Hovel site with no luck

I don't recognize that building and I've been doing 15 mm for a LONG time.  (though not Napoleonic). Perhaps try posting in the Napoleonic, Age of the Big Battalions, oriented page to see if you have better luck. 

If you do find out who makes these figures and they are still available, I'd be interested.  Buildings are one of the few things I am still looking to add to my collections - and if I find that one you are looking for I'd buy it, I like it too.

Good luck.

Well, my second hunch was Gallia Reproductions, in which case you may be out of luck. Not sure when they ceased trading but it was a long while ago, I think. I seem to recall that their models often had corner-stones. I wonder if these aren't 10mm models from Pendraken? I can't judge from the pictures how high the door-lintel is.

Battlements is my current thought - they look definitely of the old school era. I am starting to think that the sandy-coloured buildings in your post are from a larger set without adjoining walls etc. A farm or village or tavern set, of some kind. Have a look at the 'War in 15mm' blog: the buildings featured there look very similar to yours and are confirmed as Hovels and Battlements (by Ian Weekley, sadly departed).
