This is a simple two piece set. It depicts a corner of a building which has been destroyed leaving very little standing. The damage stops at the second floor level where the modeler must improvise.
The wall sections measure a scale 13 and half feet tall. One piece measures 3.95 inches wide (only 2 and three quarter inches wide at the base) while the other is 3.3 inches wide. These would correspond with 11.5 feet for the former and nine feet and seven inches for the latter in real life.
Set within these two pieces are two undamaged arched windows which would measure 33 and half inches wide by four feet tall. There are jambs for the windows. One outer edge also has a window cutout.
The outside has some nice brickwork detail which includes some battle damage.
The resin is a good move for Tiger Productions. It is much easier to work with without the inherent damage from shipping. The quality of the casting, done with an open female mold, is good with only a few resin balls which are in sections to be removed.
I have a tempered piece of glass (a salvaged glass table top) onto which I have glued on coarse and medium grit wet and dry sandpaper.
This may be tedious but it ensures a nice finish onto which to add 'wallpaper' or just paint the interior.
This set is recommended as a good value.
