Hi All;
I'm considering getting into making a small line of laser-cut buildings and my current area of interest is 15mm WWII. Does anyone have a burning need for an area not covered by the current manufacturers? Are more Normandy buildings needed? Russian buildings? I'm curious where you guys think there are gaps that could be fun to design for.
Thanks! Don |

I would 18mm so it can appeal to the 15mm , 20mm and maybe even 25mm crowd. I'd go for iconic historic buildings that could be used generally as well. For WWII, specific buildings for Battle of the Bulge in St Vith or Stavelot. Or even ones that could be used for earlier periods. Plancenoit probably did not change much in 130 years. You get the idea |

Italian buildings are something I'm always on the lookout for but find a little scarce. |

Italian, Spanish, or other Southern European buildings in 15mm and 20mm. Flat roof MDF houses are everywhere, but not sloping tiled roofs, especially in 20mm or 1/72. |

Italian, Spanish, or other Southern European buildings in 15mm and 20mm. that would have been my guess. I think there is some Eastern Front, quite a bit of Normandy and some North African stuff available already. |

One would need a lot of Dutch style Buildings if doing Market-Garden. Just saying… |

I'm interested in both Italy and Belgium/Northern France and it seems that once designed for 1:100 or 1:72, rescaling to the other isn't that difficult. If PSC can do it with tanks, I think I could do it with buildings :) |

Market-Garden (Holland) seems neat, too! |
