Does anyone make modern urban ruined buildings? Lots of folks make WWII-era buildings and Gothic sci-fi ruins (that are really WWII-era in design), but does anyone make ruins reflecting modern building design? Modern buildings don't fall apart on the inside and leave shells/corners like WWII and earlier designs. Pre-1960s buildings have load-bearing exteriors, so that "only corners or shells" look works for them. Exteriors on modern buildings are not load-bearing – they are essentially facades and the interiors are structurally much more sound. Modern ruins have no exteriors, but the floors are still there:

Come to think of it, I wonder if Allen at GameCraft could make something like that? His parking structures have something of that look:
So this would be stackable interior walls with wrecked exterior facades. That seems doable.

I think I'm now into Cacique Caribe territory – musing on my own threads with no one else around. |

Thanks, but those are all WWII-style buildings: the interior collapses, leaving the walls/corners. That is NOT how modern buildings collapse. Modern buildings are the opposite: the exterior walls collapse, but the interiors remain. They are actually far more resilient, even to artillery fire. |

15mm modern ruins, 4 different models. link Items 1006, 1007, 1008 and 1009 Other ruins in our line can be seen at the link below. Although they are listed in the WW2 Stalingrad range the two factory ruins will work for any period. Items 1079 and 1080. link Thanks |

Some of those could work. Nice models in general. Thanks, Novus. |
