Yep.

Oddly in my current reading I just learned the name of the chief Bavarian Admiral.

Do tell! (I used the title as a joke, what with Bavaria being landlocked and all.....)

Hipper, after the Battle of Jutland was made a Von and promoted to full admiral by the Bavarian Crown Prince, as he was a Bavarian by birth.

They are absolute space eaters, and needing thew extracter tubes etc limits where you can place them unless you use an epensive filter system (by venting outside to you spread the exhaust safely).

My design also removes the horrible interlock joins that mar so many mdf buldings.

Technically drawing them is not too hard, use something like inkscape (free) or coreldraw.

Let me know if there is anything in particular you wan, I still owe you for 3d printing.
If you ever get round to doing a 28mm Mexican cantina or Old West Saloon... 😀

No pressure.... I'm still doing coffee stirrer cladding for a Railway Halt, then a general store.. I just have to decide on a name... I was leaning to 'Dead Bum Gulch'.

Must so long as it has a Madame Orr's house.

My own figs are 28 mm, and I think mine is nicer than the sarissa one, so gad plans at the back of my mind.

When me and a friend built a 15mm Western town that saw many a gunfight (and dynamite throwing Mexicans) it was known as "Dry Gullet" :)
