Subject: 15mm WW2 Russian Buildings - From Box to Table
I'm dreadful when it comes to terrain, my enthusiasm levels just sink to zero so the modern emergence of pre coloured MDF kits are a god send to me, bish bash bosh, 20 minutes of my agricultural modelling skills and I can have a table ready model, what's not to like.
I bought these models from Empire at Arms recently and even I could get them together quickly and with minimal fuss, in fact if my dog hadn't eaten the chimney stack for 2 of the buildings they would be perfect !
These buildings could be used for a huge span of time in a rural Russian setting and would look equally at home in Kursk 1943 or Borodino 1812.
Full Yarkshire TV special on the Utubes and still photos with purchase link on the blog.
Will have some of the figures to look at next week.
Is there any way to get to the interior of those? I see alot of MDF buildings, and they look "fine" but so many have zero access to the interior, and when you are playing a game that allows entrance into buildings, its kinda a killer for me.
If I am shelling out cash for some table bling to improve my gaming experience, it better be able to improve the experience.

The Empires at War website says the roofs are removable.
Yep the roof on the buildings can be removed if that's your preference, I prefer fixed roofs myself, in fact I talk aboit it during the video, in fact if you watch it you can see me putting one of the mdf kits together including the roof, the whole idea of these videos is to show things like this.
