Oosterbeek. WOW buildings
« on: 23 April 2021, 02:34:32 PM »
I’ve fallen yet again into one of David’s traps.
We got talking about long term plan for Arnhem, I have British para’s from years ago, no of which have seen any paint.
Then I watched the YouTube by Jeremy Clarkson on his father-in-law.

So first buildings. 28mm scale.
I can would love the Arnhem set from WOW buildings, but don’t have a printer.

Empires of War Normandy buildings are nice, could they be used for Holland.
Any other recommendations welcome.

David doesn’t have the super duper printer required for the WOW files.
Shame.

If you're doing Oosterbeek you may need this one:

I think the Empires at war Normandy buildings are fine to use for Arnhem. Dutch buildings tend to have pantile roofs, so you may want to change the roofs of the Normandy buildings.
Just don't use buildings with natural stone walls or with visible wooden beams. Walls should be either brick or plaster.

@Scrubber - I don't have a printer either, just emailed WOW and asked if they could sell me some printed buildings, and they did. Not too pricey either, something like £80 for  terrace of five French shops.

Can anyone provide me with a link to a colour still images from the film Fury.
Images I require are the arched building when they are approaching the town square.

Has anyone seen or got the Dutch buildings from WOW.

Wondering what the details like before committing pennies.
Also about the same. How easy are they to paint. Do they require a good detergent clean first. What primer is recommended.

I have a lot of the WOW buildings alas not the dutch ones. I print them with a FDM printer. I don't wash them but give them a good base coat with black gesso. Painting is very easy then . I use an airbrush by the way.

Thanks for that.
What’s the detail like on the building.
Any chance you could post picture of one unpainted.
