Check out the historical buildings from illonios. The link below will take you there. They appear to all be HO scale, so you may have to modify them for your particular prefered scale. link I have not built them yet, but the look very good Skipper |

It's nice to see the state of Illinois to offer these to the public at no charge! They will be useful! Thanks, Skipper, for sharing this find with us all! Tom Dye GFI |

Hey
look at it this way
The state is supporting wargamers by offering terrain and scenics at no extra charge in the hard economic times
So, the state gubmint is helping you out on the game table

You can't even begin to start a study of the sex lives of termites for what pittance it must cost the state to put up free buildings on a website!
..and a heck of a lot more useful to gamers, too! Tom Dye GFI |

the buildings look great, I didn't even know they were available. But unfortunately I am a citizen of the glorious "meaning crappy" state of Illinois. I can't help but wonder if the state could of spent the money it cost them to get these done on better things
like finishing their budget this year? looks like come July 1 the state funded organizations are a bust. Affects me personally since I use the day care assistance program. My son's daycare is worried they will have to close now, they're loosing 82% of their income I guess
just me ranting i guess, although I will download all those buildings asap and store them for a project I haven't thought of yet. DI |

These have been posted before on TMP, long before the current crisis in Illinois. Living in west-central Illinois, it's neat to have seen some of these buildings "in the flesh." |

I've now built three of the buildings and I feel like I got my money's worth
..plus some. The really are pretty nice though. |

They look like a nice fit with my 28mm figures, although I might have to enlarge them a bit. Thanks for the link. |
