Though a bit pricey, this is a nice plaster building set. The inclusion of seven full window frames, a door and transom window contributes to the higher cost.
The three-story corner building is comprised of four pieces; three make up the front wall, and one piece serves as a damaged partial wall on the right of the building, as you would face it. The building material is large bricks or stone blocks, and the structure would be suitable as a house, apartment, or even office building.
One quible about the design of the building is that the left corner does not mirror the stone corner on the right side. Perhaps this is common in European buildings, but the effect gives a lopsided, incomplete look to the front facade---as if there is no wall on the left side.
While the included resin pieces are time-savers, the trim work is not complete. There is no framing for the door. The window frames fit fairly well. If you plan on having the reverse side of the building visible, you'll need to finish the interior side of the window casing since the plaster walls tend to gap away from the frame most noticeably on that side. The resin needed some clean-up, but it was not objectionable.
