Stackton Tressel 1936

[levied troop]

Stackton Tressel, an English High Street intended for a big VBCW game and future Seelowe games.
I built this last year but in the confusion of moving house I didn’t actually post the build, so here’s some WIP shots:













and two shots of it in use:



(not all my buildings there, the Ayton team added some splendid buildings to the whole table).



Buildings are Petite Properties dolls house kits with a fair number of additions.  The whole build was a bit rushed so I can see some improvements that need to be made, particularly drainpipes that seem to add instant realism to buildings, so I may revisit the build this year.

Great piece of work. When I saw your first photo with all the terraced houses, I was going to ask if you had planning permission ?

It's a pleasure to see buildings that are in full conversation with the landscape. As so many tables buildings are dropped in with out any thought given .Which is a real shame as it changes your games immeasurably.
I always find it a little odd that people complain about the lack of realism in a rule set .Whilst having tables where buildings are devoid of any context and just plonked on as a vague nods at settlement.very few buildings have nothing around them but the great outdoors.
Gardens ,fences ,yards ,allotments,garages,greenhouses,and so on, are all wonderful storytelling additions and eye candy .But more importantly additional hazards that force you to use your armour and infantry differently .(there's no one turn flanking manoeuvres behind a row of houses when you've garden's and out buildings in the way.)

I do like your use of textured paper are they from an Italian company?
I'm quite a fan of 1/4 scale buildings you always seem to get a better quality of kit for the same sort of money .
 Quite the investment too .I'd be eating pasta and probably divorced if I'd turned the house into a building site .Cracking project would love to see more.

Fantastic work, something really to aspire to. I'd also like to know the textured brick paper origin. Render is all very well but those buildings really Pop!
Thanks for sharing

Very nice wk.

Looks lovely, and full of little details. I always like spotting the Diecast cars, like the British Petroleum truck. A classic. 

Or the dog lifting his leg at the monument. A proper layout, and I am curious as to how it'll look when you add even more detail.

Aces. As mark said, it's always best when the buildings are so nicely laid out as a natural part of the terrain.

That, my friend, represents a lot of work!  What a great table for a game.
