Incredible design

Just an incredible design. Nothing quite like it elsewhere in the tabletop terrain industry. A very impressive centrepiece that is surprisingly very easy to assemble given its scale.

The main thing to note is that this thick MDF is softer and heavier than the thinner stuff used by the likes of Micro Art Studio, so a bit of care needs to be taken when handling the pieces, as their weight means that corners can struggle if you put all the stress on that point. I snapped one corner of the base due to my handling, but it was an easy fix with superglue. Once all assembled its a very durable kit, just take care during assembly.

Overall, this is just the coolest terrain kit I've ever put together and it was an absolute joy to paint. I added some plasicard and filler to hide the joins and add some extra details, which just added to the modelling exprience. Lots of people think at first glance that the model is a picture of a real building which is testament to the realism of the design!

Thanks so much Iain! I hope your infantry have successful firefights from the staircase (I've found when playing infinity, this kit is usually an important location and sees lots of actions in my own games!)

Your paintjob look great too. Glad you were able to fix the small breakage.
Enjoy your games, Ryan

Great build

This kit was very easy to assemble, and looks gorgeous even with my terrible paint job. 10/10

Nothing wrong with your paint job, looking good! If you're unhappy with it you could try some quick weathering, there are some guides on the website :)
