We have three larger towers in our 6mm Desert Buildings range, all of which are one piece resin castings with small metal accessories in the form of rooftop aerials. These share the same characteristics as the rest of the desert range – solid cast construction with few, if any, windows to keep out the vicious Martian sandstorms. The towers are available singly or in a pack with one of each. As a bonus, we also have the domed radar building that didn't quite make Salute.
BP300-104 – Large Desert Houses – £15.00
BP300-105 – Desert Towers – £14.00
SF300-133 – Large Tower – £6.00
SF300-134 – Square Tower with Dome – £5.00
SF300-135 – Square Tower – £4.50
SF300-136 – Radar Dome Bunker – £3.00

Super great! These will be great for Horizon Wars BUAs.
Dare we hope for these in 3mm scale?

I’d also hasten to add that I hope they’ve worked out previous problems they’ve had with their resin formulation, which rejected paint in some cases, leeching some kind of oily stuff to the surface. That’s the one thing that keeps me from buying a ton more of their buildings.

Mr Average – if you have some models you’re not happy with, get in touch and we’ll try to help out, we’d rather replace them than lose a customer !
We’ve learnt a lot about the resin we use since we increased our output in the last year or two, so hopefully we’ve sorted these problems out. One thing it is sensitive to is heat – this can cause the sort of problems you describe. The models shouldn’t be left in the sun (even behind a window) or next to a heat source like a radiator. However, I have sorted out one or two models that have gone a little sticky on me with a coat of PVA – this acts as a barrier and can happily be painted over.
