Nice one, Stewart!

Could you kindly indicate (I see there's been discussion recently on TMP) the sources of the various buildings?

I presume the lighter-coloured ones in the foreground are yours from The Last Valley?

Are the brown ones Martin's older DRUM ones now being sold by SHQ here:

[under "15mm Mediterranean"] but for which there are no pictures?

The brown ones are the Ian weekly urethane ones. I think Coritani now does them?

the Drum ones are much smaller but gorgeous. i will get a photo done of then..

Thanks Martin.

It looks as though Magnetic Displays [magneticdisplays.co.uk] now does Coritani, but is only showing Ian Weekley accessories [I couldn't find his buildings]

Other Spanish building producers I am aware of are:


but there does seem something of a gap in the market for nice Spansh buildings to modern production standards.

Do other folk know of more manufacturers?

No MDF manufacturers? I'll do a quick search and be back later!

Apparently not! I wonder if Martin at Warbases might be persuaded to do some.

The buildings from 'last valley' are good, come painted and reasonably priced

I've got some lovely JR Miniatures buildings for my SCW set up. They are stocked by Magister Militum. Amongst others I have the Clock Tower - perfect location for a sniper.

I believe that Magister Millitum are winding down their stock of JR Miniatures. They told me at a show recently that JR had "lost the plot". Which is a pity.

However, the original owners of JR Miniatures have started up another company by the looks of things. Last time I looked (need to find the link...) the models looked great, but there was nothing suitable for SCW.

So, after a little more digging, it looks as though the original JR Miniatures closed in October 2012:

but was presumably bought and resurrected, with some "Italian" models that might fit the bill:

while the original owners have set up a new company, Novus Design Studio, producing some lovely stuff:
