Unboxing the Miniature Building Authority's 25mm Farmstead....

To All,

A box arrived from the Miniature Building Authority:


I'm hoping it's the Farmstead, and it is! The 25mm Farmstead and the Roadside Inn are going to be the two main terrain pieces for the Gnome Wars zombie game on Saturday night at the HMGS convention Fall In.
 

Let's get the popcorn out of the way......


....and open the box. The first layer has a gate, some walls and black pieces I assume are the 2nd floors for a couple of the buildings.


 The next layer has two small buildings. the top of a larger building sticking through the Styrofoam, and three roof sections.


The last layer exposes two of the bigger buildings and the remainder of the roof sections.


Here are the sections out of the box. I'll put it together and post the pictures.

  

 
More to come....
 
The Miniature Building Authority  sells reasonably priced pre-painted resin buildings.
They are ready to play right out of the box so I don't have to waste my hobby time painting buildings. The interiors are accessible. The roof is removable and in most cases even a floor can be removed to get to the bottom level. MBA has terrific products. Click on the link to check them out.

Update Gnome Mobile Turret....

To All,

Progress on the Brigade Games Gnome Mobile Turret....

 Since I'm not that great painting camouflage I decided to go with a green top and and an 'armor' body. Some red details, including the doors, break up the plain colors.
 The interior of the Turret...
 ...and the sight for the gun.
 Going to paint the gunner tonight.

More to come....
