Today we’re adding two new packs to our range of Small Scale Scenery<\/a> European City Buildings<\/a>. The first set is two straight blocks with features at one end that allow them to be used as the ends of terraces. The buildings in the basic straight block<\/a> pack have blank end walls, but these have doors and windows at the end plus a slope to the roof.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The second set consists of four inner curved blocks that when used together would make up the outside of a circular plaza. They have the same overall dimensions as the normal corner pieces<\/a> (40x40mm).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I’ve painted these in an alternative colour scheme to the previous sets, going for a pale stone with grey slate roofs. This would have nothing to do with my discovery that I’d run out of grey spray paint… I’ll be adding some to the sets of city blocks<\/a> that I made up recently as my city increases in size.<\/p>\n
