Have been looking forward to their Battle of Franklin buildings – Carter House, out buildings and Cotton Gin – even though they are in 10mm and I game in 15mm.

While they got to me quickly, I was very impressed with the fact that each one came in its own bag, even separate ones for the porch pieces. The models were crisp and clean (just washed and primed them). Finally they came with color instructions pages on assembly for the porches and a couple of pictures for what the paint job could look like.

Thanks Bill, look forward to seeing more of the Franklin buildings in the future and likely more in the rest of your line as well.

As I'm considering these for my 15mm ACW gaming, would you please post some pictures of the buildings with some of your 15mm units?

Thanks,

Jim

You're most welcome Rick. Jim, if you're on Facebook, I have an assembly guide on my Good Ground Miniatures page. At the end there are two shots of some old 15mm Napoleonics in Front of the Franklin main house and the gin. Perhaps this will help.

A number of years ago, I converted to 10mm buildings even though my figs are 15mm. The smaller buildings look right size-wise and take up less space on the table. Now, my old 15mm buildings look huge. I realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I wouldn't be afraid to try 10s.

Thanks Tom, cool stuff on the way. Stay tuned as I plan to have these new items in time for Historicon.
