Hi,
As i gathered tons of the necromunda bulkheads over the time to build the underhive, i came along with the idea to not only build the industrial buildings but some of the old / classic 40k cardboard buildings with bulkheads.
Only problems, you don't get these on eBay anymore and i searched for some time now, but couldn't find any good pictures or templates to build them on my own. Therefore i'd like to ask, if anyone of you owns those buildings or has pictures of them (at best from different angles) and could post them here, it would be a great help for me.
If you even give me the proportions / measurements, that would be amazing.
"Imperiale Kommandoturm", "Imperial Bastion" and "Gefechtsbunker".
Another problem, some of the buildings have very general names or i don't know the original name (only the german translation) making it difficult to find pictures on the web.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Dennis

Ah i remember these guys 
i had a similar idea when my necro scenery started to look a little tatty, i went out and bought lots of plasticard to replace the card.
i'm sure there are scans somewhere on the net, i'll have a mooch let me know if you find anything.

so the first one up at the top there is the imperial bastion. the second one is the imperial bunker, then it's the imperial guard command tower. You are missing the imperial firebase (big blue landing pad thing).
imho these buildings have way more character than the new plastic stuff. If I were you I would consider the hirst arts moulds for plaster and make them using that instead. You can use a program like sketchup (I think that's it) and build them virtually, it's really easy apparently and you'll know what moulds you'll need, what parts to cast and have your own instructions!
I have some reference pictures here,

I don't have a built firebase, when I do I can post them though if you PM me your email address.

Thanks, i already have everything i need for the Imperial Firebase.
Does anybody have more pictures of the kits? Image search for "imperial bunker" and such, isn't quite a lot of help.
