I've created a template for cutting out a Normandy row house out of foam board, along with textures that can be printed exactly the size need to be glued on top of the cut out and assembled building.

It's similar to any printed cardstock, but much sturdier with the foam board structure. And also created with FoW in mind, with multiple separated floors and clearly defined entryways and windows. It's designed to be relatively quick and easy to make, so less detail, but less time to finish and much less cost.

Just wondering if people would be interested in this? I'll be releasing 1-2 buildings for free, and putting the rest up for sale on a pdf site. A sample of the texture, not finalized, is attached below.

The process is to first print the foam board cutting template, temporarily attaching that to 3/16" thick foam board (a 1/4" thick version will be made available). Cut that out and assemble. Then print the texture and glue it to the final model covering up the blank foam board sides. The insides of the buildings will be blank.

This is a descent idea, but from an architectural POV this looks rather modern to my eye.
