MiniArt has released a new product into their impressive range of buildings which this time is a French Norman street. Take a look inside for details.
MiniArt has released a portion of a Norman street which includes two building frontages and a fair portion on the inner structures. The buildings have not been damaged by war however some wear and tear is depicted on the frontage. This new product from MiniArt looks to be an impressive size in terms of height and while it takes some skills to get the best from this product type it does look to be a great addition to their range.

Thanks, Darren, for posting this. The building looks very good, but I wish MiniArt would offer us some different accessories- the doors, windows, etc. are identical for all their kits, as if houses and businesses from Normandy to Moscow all had the same fixtures.

Hi Another nice looking building from Miniart. As Bill say's I wish they would change the Fittings for the doors & windows sometimes. Shaun

yes nice building but .... seems to me that shop tittle is not so "real" !!! In french language you cannot start a shop name like so !!! May be am missing something but I never seen before such name !!! Can be : Economat = that means sort of grocery Or : Boutique economique de Normandie Or : Epicerie de Normandie Ok .... never know ???? I will do some sourcing about this ( am living not so far )!!! Edit; have done some recherch and I think am not so wrong : the only similar name I found is ; Comptoir moderne economique de Normandie that is a group of small companies of groceries and similar I don't know who help them to find such a funny tittle !!!

Could it be a case of wanting to say "Normandy Grocer" and missing out on the nuances of the French language?

YES probably but it was very easy for such acompany to have some french dealer or modeler helping them to translate correctly !!! Accuraty!!!! accuraty !!!
