Title: Chinese Hutong Buildings in 28mm- Update 24May21
Post by: joekano on January 01, 2017, 09:52:21 PM

Happy New Years All! Am starting to build a Chinese hutong for my Back of Beyond and 2nd Sino-Japanese War gaming, and just finished the first block of buildings today:

Yep, picked up a bunch of beads to use as pots:

For inspiration, I've used Jimbibbly's work and photos of Hutongs on Google Images:

Really really nicely done! The 'block' rather than just a single building is a wonderful idea, as is the simplicity of design which still captures the right look so well. Will visit your blog hoping to see what is behind the facades.

Thanks Mike! Since I'll most likely have to transport everything to play, I thought blocks would be less fuss than having to set up and break down a bunch of buildings every time.

I can't add much to what's been said, this is wonderful.

 I am a big fan of paper builds and I think your decision to use a textured roof makes all the difference really lifting it.

Thanks for posting is very inspirational.

Hi All,

  I just got back from Hong Kong and used the opportunity to grab pics of more shop signs for Chinese buildings:

Hi Chris
Better late than sorry, I saw this when you 1st posted but was travelling with no great download allowance and have only just got back to it.
Your paper builds have been a great inspiration and I have followed your lead doing some western buildings, which are greatly enhanced by textures and posters from the net as you have done.
So thanks for the further link to theses bits and pieces, I do hope to use some of them in a pulp town set in S.W. Asia or maybe Africa that will have a small Chinese community.
Great Blog as well.
Cheers

Your original builds were my inspiration to build a printed textured western town and I downloaded all the textures you posted to do the same for somewhere in SE Asia.

I got no where with it and for some resson thought your blog was dormant. Seeing Lon's comment here highlighted it again.

Thanks both and excellent work Major.

Yep the blog is still running, but I spent 2020 mostly working on figures and vehicles. I'll probably get more terrain built this year, so at my current pace I'll likley have a full table's worth ready by the next pandemic.  ;)

Good grief no!
Just envious of what you've achieved.
Please keep it up.

Thanks again for all the comments!  I managed to knock out another one over the weekend.  Sadly, I had to use an inkjet printer rather than my normal laser printer, so the texture isn't as vibrant as usual.  However, I think it will still look ok on the table:

Once again, your blog has some really good info. I have a similar project coming up and this is helpful. Oh, and another great improvement of an already nice building. I particularly liked the shot with your Dragonfrog shophouses in the background.
