Although we’re still steadily adding our Salute<\/a> collection to the website, we’re already looking forward to releases after that. The Small Scale Scenery<\/a> range is still proving to be very popular, and our next releases will be somewhat older than the models we’ve created up to now.<\/p>\n

For the last couple of weeks I’ve been working hard on some Roman buildings. I have the first draft of some town buildings including insulae (apartments) and domus (villas) as well as shops and other buildings. This will be expanded to a full set of around 20 models when complete.<\/p>\n

\"Houses\"<\/p>\n

I’ve also worked up some larger models – a temple and theatre, and a model of the Pantheon<\/a>, the great temple in Rome built by Marcus Agrippa and reconstructed by Hadrian.<\/p>\n

\"Temple\"<\/p>\n

\"Theatre\"<\/p>\n

\"Pantheon\"<\/p>\n

The town buildings will be metal castings, the larger buildings resin. Expect to see them sometime in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
