I'm needing a sources for castles, keeps, forts, and walled villages in 6mm(1/300 or 1/285). Looking for an "Old Europe" style for fictional European nations for use in a 1930's setting. |

Scale gets a bit slippery in that range because ground scale and miniature scale tend to diverge strongly. I know Monday Knight has had some micro-scale European scenery in the past, so they may be worth a look. |

Irregular does a ton of 6mm scenery, and I think the castle is parts rather than the whole thing. I.e. you buy wall sections, gatehouses, towers etc. separately, or as a kit. JR Miniatures had a couple castles, but we're waiting to hear on where their lines ended up. |

The Baggage Train does some stuff in 6mm that might be useful as does Leven Miniatures(old european buildings) I have quite a bit of both Irregular and Timecast stuff and i'd recommend both, though i dont think Timecast does much in the way of fortified non WW2 stuff |

Have you browsed this catalog? I have singled out just one paper model kit: link |

Thank you everyone, I've seen a few items that might fit the bill. I'm not a fan of paper structures, but I've been shown a few that have me re-thinking that position. Totalbattleminiatures seem to have a few nice pieces that would work for the enviroment I'm wanting to make. It's sad that JR miniatures is gone, quite a few of those structures would have worked, and the prices were nice. |

News just came up today that they're back under a new arrangement, with products back on sale early in 2013, so it's all good again! |
