They look rather nice - and reasonably priced too.

I ordered some of these and was disappointed. the detail is fantastic but they are very small. He says 10mm on the website but the Dutch village set was much smaller that the buildings from The Square, which are sold as 1/200th!

That's a real shame as they are cracking.

I came across this company

Predominantly 6mm but they do have a tab for 10/12mm for future products, Their 6mm range to date looks great so hopefully they will replicate with the larger scale.

There's an appealing church on the first page which I can't find in the catalogue....

FK,

Look in the preview section. It is a large 6mm Russian church and hasn't been released yet.

I find that for WW2, i prefer bigger buildings where units can actually sit inside.  Since my fireteam base size is a sq inch, this means a lot of the smaller buildings are not suitable for my play style.  However, I find 15 mm buildings often do the trick for this kind of play.  I havegotten quite a bit of new stuff, some 10 mm but mostly 15 mm, on the crisis show, and I think they'll do just fine.

I also have some excellent looking 10 mm scenery, that I just find too small.  Matter of fact, they're not, it's my playstyle that is out of whack, considering I use a 1 cm = 10 m scale.

However, if you're doing naps or acw or ecw, I suspect smaller buildings will do the trick just fine.

The "N" gauge model railway buildings are a good fit for 10mm. Faller and Pola (if they're still around). The models tend to be "germanic" in style of course.
