28mm Brickworks/Factory from Black Grom Studio

[agentbalzac]

Hi folks,

Here's my latest completed project, the 28mm Brickworks from Black Grom Studio.  No connection with the company but as a satisfied customer I can recommend this supplier - prompt and helpful service from Poland to Australia via ebay.

I shall be using it mainly for WW2 gaming, but it will also do duty in steampunk and modern settings, and anything in between.  It is ostensibly a brickworks, but can work as any small industrial building of the era.

The kit goes together well, and is very versatile with a number of separate components.  It includes a partial second floor inside the main building, and all the components are modular allowing various arrangements of chimney, office building, main hall and shed.  A door on the first floor of the main building allows access via a removable ramp.

I made a few tweaks:

• left off the big loading door on the main building
• glued on printer paper bricks from paperbrick.co.uk
• added corrugated card roof to the roof plates
• glued coffee-stirrers to the ramp
• please note the figure, vehicles and cobblestone mat are not part of the kit

General view 1.  The factory owner's (1/48 Tamiya) Traction Avant and a 28mm figure for scale:



Another view with the components arranged differently.  This time an Opel Blitz has turned up:



The back view: 


And as luck has it, the whole thing packs up for convenient transport and storage...



All stowed away:



Hope you enjoy.

Well done, like it a lot.
Saw they have a number of buildings on ebay.

Great job!
And thanks for showing this, I was just looking for some factory buildings and these are a much cheaper alternative than the ones I found so far. That brickworks site is mighty helpful too.

Beautiful build sir.


While I am using some Black Grom stuff and I am happy with them so the set itself wasn't new to me I was very happy to learn about great resource paper bricks is!!

I like their bicycle bases.

Superb. 

There were plenty of these adverts DUBO DUBON DUBONNET painted on buildings, on walls (with the stonework showing underneath) and in the Paris metro etc, when I was a kid. A few can still be seen, almost erased, on some old walls in remote places.
