Welcome to my strange alternative world of wargaming with toy soldiers: a game for boys from twelve years of age to one hundred and fifty and for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boys' games and books (HG Wells, Little wars)

Buildings in 28 mm
I have been assembling some new buildings for my 28 ml armies.
First up a resin model of a traditrional timber framed two story house from Frontline in resin. Excellent model, very detailed and of a good size. It paints really well.
Next an Anglo-Danish Dark Age 'wooden' hovel from 4Ground that I will use both for Saga and for a Russian peasant hovel.
Again, very nice model.
Price wise, nothing to choose between them.
Comparing the advantages of the two:
Frontline: Detailed. Unpainted so you can choose your own scheme.
4Ground: Light, tough and easy to store. Painted so you don't have to.
My recommendation:
4Ground for fast production of useful, very functional, decent looking wargame scenery.
Frontline for model making, dioramas etc.
As the old saying goes: you pays your money and you takes your choice.
Anything with teddy bear fur puts me off!
