Love those shacks. 

They would look quite in place in my People's Republic of Northern Gambola...or in my Balszakistan...

Looking forward to seeing these finished Bob.
Given how much we wargamers love firing down from roofs,
may I suggest you add trapdoors to those roofs without them?

Better buses.
Today, whilst out shopping, I noticed a new coach that might be more suitable for 20mm modern games.
Where was I ? Asda in the UK.

A couple of months ago, I found these coaches in Asda, so rushed out and bought three of them. Why three, I’ll never know.  lol


At the time, people asked me if they were a little small for 20mm ? But I convinced myself they were just fine.

As you can see, 20mm figures are just too tall compared to the coaches.

Today I found a new range of coaches, so I bought just one of them.
Here it is compared to a couple of 20mm figures.
What do we think size wise ?




And as a cheeky second item, I bought a tractor and trailer, as I couldn’t resist it.


I think they’ll both do fine in 20mm games.

The 'old' coaches might work, if they (like the infantry) were on bases.
The 'new' coach is fine as it is.

Tractor & trailer...  are you reminding me to get on with the farm?  lol lol lol
