Generic Middle East buildings
« on: April 19, 2022, 03:18:27 PM »
I started off with a range of generic 'somewhere North / East / A bit west of Suez' buildings in foam before I realised that checking that they fitted my Really Useful Boxes would be a good idea, so the next photos will include the results of cutting some of these down a bit. 28mm chap for scale.
We are where we are.

A few more WIP. There's more been added since. Not sure what the little tower is, but I saw one in a photo.

Very nice but they do look like they might take up a bit of storage space, something that I find myself thinking more about these days.
Got to kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight.

They do indeed. 15mm was so much easier - a whole village in one box.
I underscale the floor plan of buildings (plus it matches the range rules better) and now use magnets to attach upper floors and towers.

Those are rather fantastic - very well done - do like the little details and all the nooks and crannies which add interest.

Beautiful buildings! Very clean lines. Do you use a hot wire foam cutter to cut
your foam?

Beautiful work.  How are you able to make such fine cuts?

These are superb. Your foam cutting skills are seriously impressive. And particularly the two big buildings are really interesting structures: all sorts of nooks and crannies and features.
