Well I've done a prototype 25mm building for all those urban SG games you want
to play.

Pictures are here:

Jeremy,

Looks like the roof of the bar is a rectangular solid. I like that. Easy to
take off and it will still hold a figure that climbs onto the roof.

Great job, when can we download?

Jeremy,

Those look great! Just the thing for a backwater about to overrun by
something...let me see...what could it be...BUGS!

Very nice. I especially like the shack/quonset hut.

Did you make the textures - on the walls & floors - or are they stock
from one of the paint programs? I've got Photoshop 6, but I've never really
explored all the textures & stuff it comes with...

My own contribution to urban SF scenery - I've got four sheets of cargo
containers, signs and stuff at:
http://wind.prohosting.com/~warbard/scen-hardSF.html

Available as jpgs for download & printing off.

Great buildings, Germy - hope to see them available for download soon!

Essentially it is like a shoe box. The lid will support figures depending on
what you print the lid onto, or
re-inforce with stronger card.

All of the buildings I'm doing will have a roof like that.

As to the download, I'm going to wait until I have 4 or 5 buildings ready then
I'll put them up for downloading. That will hopefully be next weekend
(possibly)

The shack was done using textures I found on the net for rusty metal. Jons Bar
was done using Photoshop 6 and fiddling around with the textures.

They look nice Brian, going to do some others? crates of beer would be good to
stock Jons Bar out!

The shed is version 1.0, version 1.1 will have a removeable roof and interior
textures.

I've printed it but not made it yet, scans to follow.

Your quite right, this was afterall a test piece. I have made a smaller room
already to place where ever a door is to act as another room. I just need to
put a door on another wall.

> I am not happy with the door of the shack. It looks cool, but the

The trap with Sci-fi stuff is to make it different from today, whether
or not it is practical:) I suppose I could leave the door frame the shape it
is but make the door rectangular.

I might do some smaller containers/crates, about 1cmX1cmX1cm - anything
smaller would be too hard to cut out & fold!

One thing I do have available is a pair of very, very detailed sheets of
signs; each sheet is about 3"x3" and the smallest signs are only a few
millimetres in size - and all readable, because they're done in at
1200dpi...

One problem: They're both still in.psd Photoshop format (and huge files)
because I can't get gif or jpg to give me acceptable image quality. Now, I
can just zip up the two .psd and post them to my site - do enough people
here have Photoshop to make that worthwhile?

Failing that, could someone who knows more about image formats advise me?

I have photoshop...

Admittedly I'd rather download zipped files simply from a download time POV
