I want to start a relatively small (on a couple levels!  ;) ) WW2 project based around the Normandy landings and breakout.  My preferred scale (obviously) would be 10mm, using Pendraken's figures, but Im having a hard time finding Norman town buildings (I thinking similar to what they have over at Najewitz Modellbau link in 1/72 or the 6mm stuff they do over at Leven Miniatures link)

Does anyone have any suggestions?  Im leaning toward 6mm, mainly because of Leven Miniatures, but thats not really what I want to do!

I use Leven; they look really good with lots of 10mm figures around them.

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Do Timecast do actual town buildings?

I had the same question.  I have a couple TimeCast modern things that I like.  It looks like a lot of their French stuff is more farm-y and townhome-y.  Is that correct?

Oh, and thanks for all of the quick replies!

Try Total Battle Miniatures too...

Oh yeah - looks like some decent stuff in there that might work.  Thanks for that!

Bear in mind that the outskirts of most towns, wherever situated, are generally made up of farms and single houses.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.
