Finger and Toe Models announces the release of the 28mm card stock SNIPER’S NEST RUINS. Designed to go with Finger and Toe’s SMALL WAREHOUSE, SNIPER’S NEST RUINS comes with two ruins: one to fit the small warehouse from Finger and Toe, and a five story ruined building corner for your snipers to occupy. There’s also a medium-sized oval crater, rubble pile, barricades made from a dozer blade and car doors, plus sand bag walls for hasty fortifications in the streets. Kitbashers can even build their SMALL WAREHOUSE as a shell that slip over the small warehouse ruin in SNIPER’S NEST RUINS. Like the other models that comprise the warehouse district, SNIPER’S NEST RUINS can be used across a wide range of time periods and genres. Combine with Finger and Toe’s other ruin sets, plus the undamaged buildings from the warehouse district series, and KARTAGRAD, and you begin to get a huge variety of inexpensive terrain representing a devastated city that can easily cover a table, giving green troops and veterans alike shell shock as they creep from cover to cover avoiding snipers. Remember, every Finger and Toe model comes with SMOOSH ASSURANCE: if ya’ll smoosh your SNIPER’S NEST RUINS, a new set waits your summons from hard drive and printer. SNIPER’S NEST RUINS is available from www.rpgnow.com or www.wargamevault.com for $3.50.

I'm hardly an expert on what is needed for gaming, but the general nature of the types of buildings you have there are pretty much what I see in every Terrain Project post over at Warseer. I would think that these will be a very profitable product line for you.
Excellent work, as always. Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. I have to say, though, that designing ruins can be pretty depressing. I think I might try something a little more cheerful--say a nuclear fallout shelter. ;D

Okay, don't take this wrong, and I don't know how it would effect your personna and that of your site, but have you ever considered doing something whimsical? It would counter depression from ruins, and could be a lot of fun.
My experience tells me that doing something totally out of character once in a while usually opens my eyes on other ways to do things that are 'in-character', and I have a more productive output afterwards.
But, I'm probably speaking out of turn and am more than likely mistaken ...

actually, next week my wife has an academic conference in San Diego, city of good food and great nightlife. Oysters on the half shell, champagne, and a sunset harbor cruise! Temecula wineries on the way back--should recharge me. Then I've got an Thai restaurant in an 1890s red brick and Lancaster's Western Hotel (1880s clapboard that was once a bordello) to model.
Oh, and I've earned a good cigar and a snifter of brandy.

Well, it IS wargaming, afterall! Brilliant work, as always! I still have to get the other models built that you have released... You are releasing things faster than I can buy them!

Those sound really great. I don't think what I'm working on would be a vast marketing segment, but those will fit in well with a Victorian/Oriental theme. Okay, Victorian Chinatown for these. Looking forward to watching them develop.
Enjoy the trip. Sounds like fun.
