Anyone have one of these kits and can give me some measurements?
I need to know what the size/measurements are and if it is all only one setup or they can be constructed differently (without major reconstruction).
I'm looking to make an alternate void shield generator for my SOB.

I have the middle building. It comes in a bunch of square sections (pictur below). Each square is 3.25" per side. It is modular, with tab and slot assembly. You can build it however you want, but it will be a square building. And at least for the one I have, there is no roof, so you have to make your own. I understand, though, that all of the Pegasus kits are interchangeable, so you can swap around parts between them. They also come with little architectural details to fill the slot holes when you finish the model.
Hope that helps

That's a lot of what I needed! Thank you.
Automatically Appended Next Post: As for the roof, I need a battlement for a VSG, so that'll be perfect.

Note also that there are no parapet walls in these kits, so to make a battlement have to build your own barriers on the edges of roofs or they will be flat.
When I built my cathedral I used a dremel 543 bit (really an amazing bit and worth the price). To cut down enough wall sections to make parapet walls for the battlement-style areas on the top of the tower and lower building sections.
If you're careful in cutting you can save the top sections of the walls to make shorter walls as seen on the top story of the tower here:
You can see the rest of my build and my impressions of the kit here: http://chicagoskirmish.blogspot.com/2014/09/terrain-cathedral-de-la-pegasus.html
Suffice it to say that I think the kits are very useful for a wide variety of projects and look much nicer than the grim-death CoD kits. However do require a bit of extra work to get the most out of them.

Wow. That's excellent. I definitely think I'm going to try to find one.

I love the Pegasus buildings. I plan on leaving mine apart so I can make ever changing labyrinths for Zone Mortal is...

You say that I am crazy. I say that you are right! |

One other note to give an idea of how much you need to make a big building. My building used the Large building and small set #2.

I'm actually making a smaller one. The void shield building is smaller than a bastion (footprint) and a bit taller.
The modular part gives me optimism though.
