FLAT PACK BUILDINGS

I've been meaning to have a go at this project for a while, needing 54mm buildings and terrain, but without the hassle of constructing them or the massive amount of storage space they would take up. I thought I would start off with a tavern which I can use for 17th and 18th century games.

Uncle Toby shows the way to the bar of the Cockwell Inn.

...and directs vittals to be sent to the troops.


A side on view.

The building was  cut from 3mm MDF with a jigsaw. For future buildings I will add more detail (such as a chimney, which I forgot on this inn....doh), but overall I was quite pleased with the result.

  1. Agreed, and it looks really good too. Kind of like stage scenery in miniature.

  5. Very clever and well-executed. I do like the idea of space savings for 54mm.

  6. Builders in Kerala used to initially focus on either apartments or on flats. Today a new breed of builders has a diverse portfolio of luxury flats and apartments. The luxury apartments and flats of most builders are elegant, air conditioned and peaceful.Most builders are focusing on the go green concept.
