So, other than Pendraken and Battle Field Terrain Concepts, what US options are there for terrain in this scale? The railroad N scale stuff seems super expensive and what I found looked to be all north america stuff, not WW2 western/eastern europe. Etsy has some folks printing in resin (really expensive) or FDM which looks like crap at that scale. Are there any US options I'm missing? Ebay? |

I've struggled to find any Russian or even Russian-looking buildings I like at low prices – and I'm willing to buy from anywhere, not just the US. I've scoured eBay, Etsy, flea markets, and all the miniature manufacturers in the US and Europe I can find out about. Try looking for paper buildings. I don't have any suggestions where to shop for these – paper buildings are not my thing. They should be easy to make, cheap to make in quantity, and hekka easy to store and transport (practically weightless!). With color copiers, they don't even have to be the right size, just rescale (though I'd recommend scaling down, not up). I've started exploring scratch building options. It's possible to get various pieces from the model railroading hobby that will work for our adjacent hobby: I'm most enthusiastic about styrene, because I prefer it to clay or paper. - Ix |
