I made a couple of buildings out of plastic styrene and wanted to show them off. The goal was to have something that can work as fringe world terrain, necromunda huts, and near future 3rd world housing. I think I came pretty close to covering that.

About 3 hours of work with painting. I might buy a few commercial ones as well but I am also going to be building a few more.

Really like those. What did you use for the windows?

The windows are granny grating – the plastic knitting canvas you can find at craft stores.

Yes they are HO scale porta-potties – from the same company that makes the dumpsters as well.

DZT,

You are awesome! Inspiring work. Now I feel compelled to finally finish mine.

Got more pics of how you started it and at midpoint?

Thanks,

Dan

Well done, those look great!

Sorry no WIP shots of them.

My brother and I worked on them Thanksgiving day. Just a big pile of parts and we just started gluing till we got them done.

I later painted the pair.

Well done! Looks the business.

Just need some tawdry signage and you're there!
