Does anyone make a farm house in 1/35? I have been through the Verlinden website and found several buildings that I can use for other uses on a farm but no "farm" house?
Thanks
Mike

Miniart has the French house, that looks quite rural. Maybe combined with their farm gate (Same "stone" and style)

Maybe one of Mk35 houses would fit the bill ?

Thanks for info guys. I am looking at a MK35 building as a possible farm house to go along with the Verlinden items

Hiya Mike,
Just looked at Internethobbies.com, they have "Farm houses" listed for Verlinden, not sure if they have them in stock, these are the older kits. You might want to call them first before ordering and check there stock.

See ya in the funnies.................

Miniart # 36032. I'm not sure if this is what you mean. Hope it helps.

The Hansa French Farm house kit is quite nice.... its sure easier than the Miniart kits and more realistic.

@Chris: who sells Hansa Systems online?

i found one kit was available at GreatModels, is this one of those manufacturers we buy directly from?

they seem to have some interesting items, particularly i'd like to get a hold of the hollow cinder blocks they had listed.

cheers, bd.

Yeah, the Miniart kits are a little tough. I agree that for the same price, you can get a far better quality and easier to assemble plaster kit. The accessories that come with the Miniart kits almost make them worth it, though.

thanks Frenchy, i had tracked down their website and saw they require an email to get pricing. i saw Custom Dioramics also had cinder blocks but out of plaster rather than plastic. thanks once again for the help. cheers, bd.

Bruce,
You HAVE to get some of the Hansa stuff- its great and really well engineered too! I think I paid 35$ US for the Ruined French Farmhouse and it had around 1000 pcs. Its also reallt easy to make ruined structures out the full kits. Check out the accessories too the windows are incredible......

No connection with Hansa whatsoever......

thanks Chris, the kit they had on hand at greatmodels was the iraq building for $35 and looked really well designed. i like the doors they had on their site as well. i'm all about checking out new manufacturers so i think i may have a new one with Hansa. thanks for the tip. cheers, bd.
