EotD - terrain?

[Van-Helsing]

Col, I am the guy the who drew that, and you sir, are pretty darn observant, I happen to live smack in between New York and Boston, and probably am far more influenced by that.  Thanks for the compliments.

As those buildings are no doubt influenced by the Empire style - you're pretty well spot on

[Booboo]

Drew, I added a couple optional roof options, and dormers.  I hope that addresses the flat roof concern, but feel free to PM me suggestions.

I lived and worked around the East End for many years, and do know quite a lot about its history... You have to remember that most of what was there was leveled during the blitz.

Out of all the streets the the ripper murders took place i think only one, Hanbury Street, still has a proportion of the original building left... And i know this because a friend of mine bought a house there directly opposite number 29....

And his house, im affraid, did not belong to the New England Empire style.... and its didn't have a flat roof!

Try using google maps and walking down Hanbury street today....
A sort of virtual Ripper tour....



You can easily see the Huguenot Weavers had a lasting influence on the architecture they left behind.... and makes you realise that London and especialy the East End, has always been a melting pot for cultures and a migrant workforce.....

I've been clamoring for Victorian London buildings for years only to be told time and again that there's no market for it.

Like Napoleonic French, everyone wants to do yet more timber framed housing instead, working in areas already so well covered.

It's what stopped me going "overboard" with Vampire Wars and Rippers really, the lack of Victorian City terrain.

Flashy: I understand the frustration. I had no problem when I was selling the Wild West buildings, but when I had Victorians up for sale I made two sales in a year. Both were large orders but not the kind of interest in the genre that drives me to produce new models.

A couple of people have released some fine products recently in both resin and laser cut wood.

Given the recent increased interest in the genre I am working on making new molds based on the buildings of mine you may or may not have seen posted here on LAF. My hope is to have 4-6 basic building types cast in resin and ready to ship to customers in August or September. One or two terrace house designs as well as a corner unit and some shops. Maybe a mill or government building as well. I'll have a separate post up here on the boards soon looking to garner opinions as to what is desired most. I'll also be looking for a UK caster interested in doing these on that side of the water to try and keep shipping costs to a minimum.

Perhaps Ian at Fenris maybe able to help, as another upstanding and active meme er of the esteemed forum??

Hope so.
Maybe Andy at Ainsty might be open to suggestion?
Given his recent bad luck it might boost things for him.
Also it could fit in with his Nelson's Column.

Urban Construct might be looking at EoTD terrain:

They already have 28mm cobbled roads and sewer sections, plus modular building sections.

Hooray! Hope this pans out as I love your stuff!

I suggested he contact Ian over at Fenris Games, he may be interested, but I know he's extremely busy. If he did take it on, the quality would be second to none.

[Cherno]

I think this fits in here quite well.

As seen on TMP:
