Title: 4Ground Buildings
Post by: Nosher on 13 September 2016, 06:20:31 PM
Part of my clearout was to pay for some decent 28mm buildings and terrain.

Today I have assembled a third terraced house, some telegraph poles and the Cafe Gondree (less shutters which I will finish off tomorrow)

Two battle damaged terraced houses, a three storey bakery, a three storey shop and a large corner house still in boxes to be assembled. The first building took some doing, but I'm getting quicker and finally getting my head around the 4ground instruction sheets.....

The results are worth the efforts for 4Ground buildings.

I built one of their log cabins recently.

I was happy with the build but disappointed with the look of the roof.

I redid the roof with Warbases shingles.

I use 4Ground in 15mm, plus a few I bought from Warbases, which aren't as detailed as 4Ground

Perhaps he needs some more buildings to fill in the gaps between all the corners ;) :d

Looking good. I have just completed the 4Groung Pegasus Bridge in 15mm. My Mrs said it should be marketed as part of the "Torrets" range due to the amount of bad language it caused to be heard in my house during construction ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D.

Now to get the boards built for the Battleground show  :) :) :) :)
