Expanding Italian Village

 As I prepare to host a 02h00 game at the upcoming Trumpeter Salute wargaming convention next month, I realised that my Italian village was a bit too small.  Accordingly, I placed an order with Sarissa Precision for a few more buildings to fill up the space. Sarissa was great and I had the MDF models in my hands in 10 days.  I got a two-floor house, a slightly larger two-floor plus terrace and balcony house, a corner tavern and a set of low walls.  

First up is the two-floor house, with a Nanarchist for scale.

The roof and upper floor lift off to allow access to the interior.  The reference model is now a Pulp Figures housewife!

As a bonus, the upper floor can be excluded to make a single-floor house that matches the Brigade Games houses already in my collection.

Now here is the larger house.  

This house can also be disassembled to allow interior access.

And again a shorter building can be assembled.

Finally, here's the corner tavern, currently visited by a couple of partisans.

As with the others, this one can also be a single-floor building.

All three buildings have plain side walls.

This allows them to be assembled as a terraced street.

For fun, I quickly set up my village to see how the Sarissa MDF buildings compare to the Brigade Games resin buildings and the Um Bum card buildings.

Everyone loves a parade!
