Apologies for not having posted recently … commitments in other periods and activities have taken over much of my time … but I did manage to get back to an outstanding project …
You might remember the review I did (reviews, scroll down for it) of the excellent generic Warbases buildings …
Well, a while back, I bought a few more with the intention of using them as a sort of kit – to make a more iconic Stalingrad building by linking and tampering with them a bit.
OK – well they have hung around for quite a while but I had a play the other day …
(Stalingrad project … 2 Warbases buildings, some cut up bits and some Warbases windows/doors)
I made one or two adaptations to corner link the units, plus I cut a couple of card segments for the entry. The doors are just 4 ‘windows’ from a Warbases accessories pack.
(and here it is stuck together)
It isn’t a scale model of the Univermag store, of course – it is just a generic building (but I hope it will add a little more plausibility to an abstract broken cityscape).
More anon with paint and figures …
Looks good, Phil. I even like the colour! The Den may be ready to host by mid summer.
Regards, Chris
Thanks, Chris .. I think it will end up concrete grey with weathering just like the others of course … I will have another look at Enemy At the Gates for inspiration …

… aand is that the new PSC Raupenschlepper Ost lurking in the background?
It is certainly a Raupenschlepper Ost … but it is the older Skytrex metal one. I’ve always thought it a bit big so it will be interesting to see how big the PSC ones are. I bought you a Zvezda Stuart at Salute in case you hadn’t got one already – must drop it round some time.
Got myself a Zvezda T60 … lovely little model – will do a BF-Skytrex-Zvezda side by side for the blog in due course.
