Auhagen Buildings

last year I started looking about for buildings that would work with Flames of War. I found the Auhagen range of TT/HO scale buildings.

Here is a mid-construction shot of the inside of a farm house. Note the base plate (tan) and the window frames in the walls.

Here are a couple of completed buildings, a corner structure and a house:

I've added a plasticard base to the yellow house, the first one I built, so that there is a sidewalk in front and a small garden area behind. Eventually I will treat all the city houses this way, so that they can be moved around and arranged however I wish.

On to the inside. The roofs are glued together but not attached to the buildings, so they lift off. I've made plasticard inner floors so that my little army men can lurk in the upper storeys and eaves:

Lurking SS grenadiers:

An outside shot with a Panzer IVH and a Hanomag for size comparison:

I have left off the extra detail that could be added outside (gutters, drains, more flower boxes) and inside (paper decorative sheets to cover the windows that would represent curtains, flower pots, etc, when viewed from outside).

I like the kits and intend to add more to my collection. There's some work involved assembling them and making internal floors, but they have much more character than the ready-painted houses available from various manufacturers and they look more "to scale".
