This very useful even for American subjects which is why I might just have to get this one.

i must admit i like the MK35 stuff, they are one of the few manufactures that do full complete buildings rather than the half destroyed ones that most do.

I'm surprised we don't see more of there items in dioramas

Has anyone used Mk35 figures? Wondering what the quality's like. Does anyone in North America carry their stuff?

Hi guys,
I have to agree, the buildings are just outstanding.Last year i purchased two buildings, there was hassle putting them together.I like the various houses, purely because they can be used in just about any setting from W.W.2.
@Barry, i have at least 6 figures from Mk35 and a couple of their work horses.They are very well detailed and on the same par as brands such as Resicast etc.
Cheers,Shay

I take it that it does not have a rear wall? So it will have to be placed at the edge of a diorama. At a right angle, which may not please some purists. .

Having said that, the undamaged nature opens many possibilities to detail the interior. And at that price, I think I will be persuaded to have one sooner than later...
Are there any details about the actual dimensions of the building, as I have some Plus model interiors that are straining to get out of their boxes...

Cheers

Nice looking new building from MK35. I have been browsing thru their website for some time. If one wanted to put together a French street scene, they have enough to do the job. I did one out of foamcore buildings which wasn't too bad, but theirs look much more like the real thing - and much more so than many other makers buildings. As to the one sided question - foamcore could be added to make them 360 degree.
They also have a line of solftcover books on various armor subjects - Squadron sometimes carries these.
They are in french with english subtitles (actually an insert with the english) and have plenty of detail pictures of the vehicles plus a superdetail build of a model of the subject.

Thanks Pat,

I was afraid of that, the PlusModel interiors will fit this wunderbar...

Cheers
