AK47 African Town



The mdf buildings I ordered from a seller on eBay arrived yesterday so I glued them together in a bit of a rush last night. The fit of the parts was really bad but, with some simple cutting, sanding and fiddling, I managed to squeeze seven buildings out of the various bits, with some spare parts left over for other things. I've added some old saw cut mdf bases to the roof tops as concrete slabs and also glued on some air conditioning units from The Scene, to cover up some of the dodgy areas and inconvenient doorways. The buildings now need some filler to plug the gaps and some extra detailing with junk, signs and fittings, before I undercoat them ready for painting. They're nothing flash but at about £2.30 each, they're pretty good value for money.

  1. Nice. I usually make mine out of polystyrene pizza packaging and cardboard but these look good. Cheers WW

  3. With the right scatter terrain they wouldn't look out of place with the Sci-Fi Mechanized Platoon either
