15mm Hovels - European Buildings



Its about time I put up something new up that I've painted during the lockdown.
I've had these collection of Hovels buildings for a few years now, I bought them at a show all prepainted. I've given them all a new coat of paint as they were all previously painted the same dull beige colour.


What with the plastic houses I picked up at a show a while ago, I've enough buildings for a extremely large town.


Stacks more than I actually need, but you know what its like........

  1. Nice haul Ray, with a good combination of eye catching architecture, while having a small footprint and plenty of presence.

  16. Being 'forced' down the shed seems to be a shot in the arm for your hobby. These look great.

    1. The tallest building is 4 1/2 inches, most a 3 1/2 inches.

    2. Thank you. Do you handle them a fair bit? No chipping or cracking or any of that 1990s nonsense?

    3. They do get bashed about a bit, I usually gloss varnish them to give them a hard finish then go over with a few coats of matt, that usually stops the chips.
