The Narrow House is now available from Ecardmodels: ecardmodels.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=866 This is a 30mm fantasy/medieval building with multiple layers, offering a wide variety of appearances. Assembly is quick and easy and requires just color prints on 2 sheets of cardstock, a sharp hobby knife and glue. Features chimneys in two sizes, two dormers, and two shipping crates.

Very nice. I love how the collection of different buildings is growing up - and they look awesome with the Streets of Himmelveil tiles from WWG!
Can't wait for the larger buildings you hinted elsewhere. ;D

Be patient with my explanation, as english is not my primary language; I'll try to be as clear as possible.  I'm actually gluing the buildings first to spare blank cardstock leftovers from the print sheets (usually the layout area from the buildings own bases), then cut out the outcropping and finally gluing the whole assembly to a 3"x3" or 3"x6" HV tile. The first basing step might seem unnecessary, but I prefer to work that way, as the building gains extra strenght and stability before being placed on the tile. Larger buildings - such as the Grey Hare Inn - need a 6"x6" tile, and the one with the trapdoor-like thingie is just perfect. The modularity concept from the TLX system stays pretty much the same, and even 3-4 buildings linked together in a small block look really really good. Also, the different height/style of the buildings contributes a lot to the overall atmosphere. I have no pictures of the result at the moment, as I'm working on a 6 by 6 large tile layout (that means a 36"x36" square), and I'm nowhere near finishing it!

I've been watching your releases over the last few weeks, and they all look fantastic. When I finally get back into building mode, I'll be picking up some of your buildings. JIM
