Christmas building, an Inn. There is plenty of room at this inn. It's a rather large building perfect for downtown. I like buildings like this because they work for 300 years of history or more. Put Redcoats out front, or 1950s Martian invaders and it works just fine either way.

It will look fine in London, Las Vegas, Shanghai, or New York, NY.

Agreed. The perfect terrain feature looks just as appropriate with hoplites marching past as with Abrams tanks. Sadly, few things in life are perfect, but this would work from the late middle ages to WWII at least. (Be careful with the billboard, though. Or have removeable signage?)

A few different signs and greeblies can set the era from probably late medieval to hundreds of years from now.

Mr Bunker, in your blog's splash screen image, with the armored cars in front of a building, what is that building? Does it happen to be an available STL file?

robert I print signs and use replaceable stick glue on the sign to stick it on the building temporarily. It is the type of glue found on post it notes.

Sol, quite so.

ThunderAZ, it is a Walthers Cornerstone

Ahh, thank you. I was hoping it might be a 3d print as it would be a good fit in my Prypriat setting I'm building up.
