Agri Update

If you haven’t met our Agricultural Colony ranges of sci-fi models before, they represent a set of prefabricated buildings that are designed to help a new colony get off to a quick and easy start by being easy to assemble and erect. We started with a series of 6mm models (you can read about those and the ideas behind the range in a previous blog post). We’ve since expanded to a 15mm range and there’s even a set of tiny 3mm ones to accompany Germy’s sci-fi models.

Today we’re focussing on the 15mm versions. These are different to the smaller models in that they’re designed to be modular; the base buildings are just blank shells, and all of the external features – doors, windows, aircon, vents etc – are separate pieces, allowing you to position them wherever you like. This makes for a surprising amount of variation – the two buildings pictured below are made from exactly the same building shell, but with a different arrangement of features.

Today we have a new building shell, plus some extra features to allow even further variation. This model we’ve named the Small Shed (the existing shed model has been renamed the Large Shed – we’re nothing if not imaginative…).

It’s a simple small building which comes with a window, door and aircon unit which can be arranged in a few different ways. In a domestic setting it could represent a garden shed, or it could be used as a tool store on an industrial site, right up to a weapons or explosives locker in a military base.

We also have several new external features to add to existing buildings. The Lean-To fits on the side of a building and can be used as a car port to park your cyclo under, as a dry storage area to keep the alien weather away, or simply as a porch to sit under.

The Chimney fits to the side of our larger buildings – it’s designed to fit the wall profile and over the roof.

And finally, a pair of larger Bay Windows let more light inside, and we’ll also supply these with our Shop models as a front display window.
