28mm Resin shanty buildings required for Pacific War 1879

[Shipka]

I am seeking some resin 28mm shanty buildings of corrugated structure can anyone help, I am no good at scratch building so need to buy them. I have attatched a couple of pics of the port at Pisagua which witnessed a landing by Chile against the combined Peruvian and Bolivian forces.

2 B honest scratchbuilding in corrugated sheet is pretty straighforward if you use a foamcore building shape as a skeleton and glue cut sections of Wills scenic corugated sheet card to it. Wills also do windows and doors/frames.
I knocked these up in 15mm

By the way Shipka, I thought I went in for obscure periods!!!! - RESPECT!

Those building look like they might date to a later period. Not sure  who makes anything similar but they should be pretty easy to scratchbuild.

For what it's worth here's a photo I took last year of the  replica House of the Answer, the Peruvian HQ in Arica. The repro is at the Peruvian Army museum in Callao. Might be of use.

Hi there

I'm not sure how soon you need them but if a month or so is the timeframe I could look at making them for you in kit form.

You can see examples of some of the other stuff I have done here: http://www.lasercutcard.co.za/scenery and I am sure that I could do something for you a LOT cheaper than resin, especially in 28mm and especially if you don't mind me using the templates to sell them to other people.

PM me if you would like to consider this.

Cheers
Neal

Here they are in resin from Ainsty, and pretty cheap, too, 14 sterling.  Lots of variations on possible roofs, corrugated iron, tarps, wooden, interchangeable.
