They look great, just wish plasticville was easy to come by in the UK

I thought there was an UK company now selling it?

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,

Reminds me a bit of designs from the movie "Looper". Looking good!

Ah nice. What size is used for 28mm compatibility?

O-scale which is 1/43-1/48 while 28mm are technicaly 1/56.
Now, the Plasticville buildings are actualy S-scale (1/64) with O-scale doors and windows, so small buildings, but 28mm figs fit in the doors are look in place behind a window.

Great stuff - and nice links to Plasticville this side of the pond, too!

Okay, so finished up the last bits of the Militia HQ, which meant fixing the flag, finishing the garage door, and weathering the chimney topper:



And now when you open the garage, there is a surprise inside: a Bate's Digester, which converts animal waste into methane gas and provides power to the HQ and its vehicles.



And some interior detailing: fireplace, comfy chair, and an office for the Militia Commander.



I also finished a trailer home.  The set comes with three, and this is the first I finished.  This one is someone's home:

Love your buildings.
I have a large number of them I use for my games.
They are great.

Fantastic buildings.  They had great "bones" but your painting and conversions put them over the top.

Thanks for all the nice comments!

I finished exterior painting on the Biker HQ, still have the roof and interior to do.  Here's the front:



The back:



This shot of the side shows off the peeling brickwork, which I'm really proud of.  Never tried anything like it before, did an experiment, and am very pleased with the results.

I really like the mesh over the windows, and the little barricade details!

Cheers

The peeling block wall does look good.  Did you stipple your grays over the base colour?

Yeah, using a sponge brush.
