As usual, I turn to the good folks at TMP for guidance. I am looking for 15mm buildings for the Sengoku period. I am not playing skirmish rules so they do not have to be hollow. I just want some buildings as background pieces for my Taiko! rules battles, which are large with hundreds of figs. Thanks.

Oops, Samurai

Hmm, just like a crazy person, I am answering my own questions. I have researched the net and found that Hovel sells what I am looking for; however, the Oshiro buildings look excellent. But, I cannot click on the product to order it. Is that company still in business? Any other manufacturer suggestions?

Peter Pig has two period buildings in 15mm.

PaperTerrain has a nice set of Oriental buildings.

Oshiro must still be in business, even though he may not have a shopping cart:

I've been working on some 15mm buildings, though I haven't made casts of all of them yet. My big worry is the large amount of resin needed compared to 6mm buildings.

I did my collection a long time ago and use buildings by Hovels Miniatures for my Japanese village. You can see the ones I did at warin15mm.com/page04.html

Kerr & King have some 15mm Oriental buildings that may be useful: kerrandking.co.uk

Skeptic03 Apr 2016 7:26 p.m. PST

Yep, Kerr & King call them "Oriental", but they seem more Japanese than anything else.

As usual, thanks to the experts here on TMP

Setsuko, those looks nice. You are talented.

I have some 28mm Oshiro buildings, they are excellent and easy to paint – the raised details are easy to drybrush and he supplies them ready primed

Send him email, he is very responsive to questions and will process your order as quickly as he can

Thanks

You can make them hollow, for casting, to keep the amount of resin down, without too much difficulty.

I can also recommend the Oshiro buildings. I have some in 15mm and they are very nice.
