Vauban Fortification in 28mm?

Hello,
      I am looking for a 28mm Vauban style fortification or at least a section. Any suggestions?
Thank you

Magister Militum in UK produce some pieces of “Vaubanesque” fortification. Very pricey and I hate to think of shipping cost outside UK. Paperterrain produce a Vauban fortress in various scales including 28mm.

Currently making my own using high density foam and a Proxon.
There is a FB group for Vauban wargames, lots of home-made ones on there, and a few that are 3D printing.

Where are you based?

A friend of mine scratch-built this ten years ago... but it's a lot of work.  o_o

I purchased the following Vauban fort last year and I am very pleased with it.

It is well worth the money time saved teying to build one. Just my two cents worth.

I have a left over bastion and some wall sections from my 1/50th scale Castillo de San Marcos project. I would be happy to give them to you if you like. They are not completed but most are well on the way. Below is a picture of the completed model. Contact me at daftrica89@yahoo.com if you are interested. I live in the greater Detroit area, if you are close we can work out an exchange point.

It is constructed of blue insulation board with an exterior of cardstock and the wallboard compound. Step-by-step details can be found on my blog under "Adventures in Blueboard and Foamcore"; scroll down past the other projects until you get to The Starfort and all of the posts are in chronological order.  https://antonswargame.blogspot.com/p/adventures-in-blue-board-and-foamcore.html

This is what it looked like in the raw blueboard
